      Issue Summary

      If a Jira filter macros is added to the page and a custom single user picker field from Jira is included in the results display, this returns the users username value instead of their display name like with the reporter and assignee fields.

      Environment

      Confluence Cloud
      TinyMC & Fabric editors

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a Jira and Confluence cloud site.
      2. In Jira create a customer single user picker field and add this to required screens and scopes.
      3. In Jira create a test issue and populate the custom user picker field with a user.
      4. Create a page in confluence.
      5. Add a Jira filter macro to the Confluence page.
      6. Include the customer user picker field in the displayed results in the Jira macro.
      7. Publish the page

      Expected Results

      The value in the custom user picker field within the Jira macro should return the display name for the user.

      Actual Results

      The value in the custom user picker field within the Jira macro is the username

      Notes

      This is especially problematic for SCIM provisioned users as they are issues a UUID as the username.

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
