Description
Problem Definition
Currently, it's not possible to display the development panel for an issue in Confluence using Jira issues macro
Suggested Solution
Provide ability to display development panel using Jira Issues Macro in Confluence
Information
tested in Jira 8.5.3
When the HTTP Dump Log is enabled in Jira during the request of Jira Issue Macro, we can see the below information coming from Jira:
<item>
<link>http://localhost:8853/j853/browse/MST-1</link>
<key id="10000">MST-1</key>

Here, we can see that although the field Development is returned from Jira but there is no value in it for Confluence to display. Thus, Confluence is able to find this field, but no data is displayed in it:
This is likely a limitation where Jira also plays a part and needs to be updated
Eg: JRASERVER-67299 is a request to have the development information exported into CSV. With this implementation, the information should also be exported into XML as well where this will resolve part of the issue from Jira's end
