FAQ
- Where can I paste the generated Jira table markup?
- You can paste it into Jira issue descriptions, comments, or Confluence pages that support Jira wiki markup. When you save, Jira will render the markup as a formatted table.
- Does this work with the new Jira editor?
- Yes, but behavior can vary depending on your Jira version. In many cases the editor will automatically convert the wiki-style markup into a rich-text table when you paste it. If not, switch to the markup or code view and paste it there.
- What XML structure is required?
- The tool expects a root element with repeating child elements (for example <employee>). Each child element's children and attributes are treated as columns in the Jira table.
- Can I edit the columns after conversion?
- Yes. After generating the markup you can edit the header names or remove columns directly in the text before pasting it into Jira or Confluence.
