      Summary

      Copying text from Confluence pages (it's probably copying an HTML element that is generating the code block) and pasting into Jira New Issue View generates a Code Block and the text is inserted inside of it (Wiki Markdown).

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Copy text from Confluence
      2. Paste it into a Jira issue using the New Issue View

      Expected behavior

      Text should be pasted with the proper format and without the code block.

      Actual behavior

      Text is pasted with a code block.

      Note

      Can only reproduce in new issue view.

      Workaround

      There's no workaround at the moment if there's special formatting in the content copied (e.g.: bold, italic, etc.).

      If there's no special formatting:

      • Using Cmd + Shift + V to paste the text works.
      • Pasting the content into a text editor without special formatting also works.
