How to get tables to work from Jira Automation to Microsoft Teams (using Power Automate/Flows)

James Prieto October 1, 2024

I used to be able to pass tables from Jira Automation to Microsoft Teams using the format:


| Col 1, Row 1 | Col 2, Row 1 | Col 3, Row 1 |

| Col 1, Row 2 | Col 2, Row 2 | Col 3, Row 2 |

 

This used to work (when using Connectors) and would result in a formatted table in Microsoft Teams.  However now that I am using Power Automate/Flows, it comes unformatted.  Does anyone have any tips in getting this to work?

 

Thank you!

Hello @James Prieto 


The Format is a little different, here is an example you can try:

||*Manufacturer Part Number / Ordering Code*||*Manufacturer*||*Quote*||*Quantity*||*Quote Date*||*Quote Number*||*Supplier*||*Lead Time*||
||*X*||*Y*|| || || || || || ||

This will result in the following table:

basically you use || for a new column and use it twice for a new line.

Best regards,

Jan

Thank you @Jan Westphal, is that meant for an output into Microsoft Teams? I still get the same output in Teams and it isn't a table.Screenshot 2024-10-02 at 8.30.45 AM.png
