Issue Summary
When copying the description field to another issue, URLs using the following characters break the link if they have a custom URL description:
- |
- ]
- [
Steps to Reproduce
- Create an issue with several URLs that have square brackets or pipes in the URL descriptions
- Write an automation rule to copy the description field into another issue
Expected Results
The description is copied exactly between issues, and the formatting doesn't break.
Actual Results
Formatting is broken if square brackets or pipes are used in a URL description.
Workaround
You can use regex to extract URLs from a description and print them without any formatting, however, without knowing what kind of formatting the description will have it is almost impossible to write a regex solution for this that will fit all use cases.
