Summary

Epic Link column in "Insert JIRA Issue/Filter" (a table inserted in a Confluence page) has a hyperlink to the corresponding Epic but the Epic link name field in Confluence does not show the name of the Epic (as Jira's equivalent column does).

Pre-requisites:

Confluence and Jira have an Application Link established and working

Steps:

Steps:

1. Create a new page in Confluence and write a title
2. Insert "JIRA Issue/Filter"
3. Write a filter to grab all the issues for the specific Project
4. Open the "Display Options" and edit the columns to be shown to be
   • Key
   • Summary
   • Epic Link
   • Epic Name
5. Click "Insert" and save the Confluence Page...

Now navigate to Jira and search for issues:

1. Issues > Search For Issues > write a filter for 'project = "<Name>"'
2. Configure the Columns of this query to show:
   • Key
   • Summary
   • Epic Link
   • Epic Name
3. Now observe the generated table and compare it to the one created in Confluence through Jira filter macro.

Actual Result: 

The issue is that on the confluence page, we see the epic link name which is different from the Epic name actually present And it has the same link as it should have.

Also, this issue is being faced randomly for some of the EPIC names under Jira issue macro under Confluence Page.
