Currently, using the clone action from Automation for Jira does not support the copy of expanded data from Jira Issues.

Create a field using Text Field (multi-line).
Go to the field configuration used in the test project and change the renderer to Wiki Style Renderer.
Add the field to the create screen.
Create an issue and have the following data:
1. A table and one of the rows have an expand with some data.
2. Outside of the table, have an expand with some data.
Create an automation rule with the action "Clone Issue" and copy the values from the trigger issue from the Description field and your newly created field.

Currently, the workaround would be to have expand data inside a table to copy it properly.
