When I try to copy any table or sheets , paste into a jira page, it just can't do that, there were no borders,  

only contents could be paste ,

If I need input a table, I have to input characters to make a table. It is really inconvenient and bad experience, pls help to fix this problem.

Hi @yongguo luo and welcome to the Community!

I think the issue you experience may be depending on where  and how you are trying to copy/paste your data from.

I just did a simple test with a table I copied from Excel, pasting it into Jira's description field where it immediately renders exactly as it looked inside Excel. With borders, even background colours of the header row are maintained:

So maybe the source application you are copying from is in an unsupported field or you may be trying to copy your table into a Jira field that does not support rendering the format.

There are many tools out there that have the freedom to implement table formats in their own language. Expecting other tools to be compatible with all those formats may not be a realistic expectation. In many cases, you could paste a screenshot from the table into Jira if you need it for informational purposes.

If you want people to edit the table data in your Jira issue, why not create your table inside the issue itself instead of in an external tool? Copying it into your Jira issue breaks the link to the source data anyway.

Hope this helps!
