      Issue Summary

      1. When using the Jira issue details field in Confluence Databases, we do not have the option to select or show the comments from a Jira issue.
      2. This can be worked around by using Jira Automation and Custom fields.
      3. But it would be good to have this natively supported.

      Current behavior

      • No default option in Confluence Databases to show comments from a Jira issue.

      Suggested behavior

      • Add an option to show comments from a Jira issue, in Confluence Databases.
        • Either all comments (if possible in the Databases table)
        • Or just the latest comment

      Workaround

      1. Create a new custom field in Jira, for example, "Latest comment", and apply/add it to the required projects/screens.
      2. Create a Jira automation, to trigger when comments are added, and to add the latest comment into this custom field.
      3. Test by adding a new comment into the Jira issue, and confirm that the comment is added into the custom field.
      4. In Confluence Databases, select and use this custom field.
