Jira Issue Macros added to Confluence are always placed at the cursor location

Summary

Adding Jira Issue Macros to Confluence pages can sometimes result in the macro being placed in unexpected locations

Environment

• Confluence connected to Jira via app link

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new page
2. Add a table to Confluence (3 rows or 4 with a header, 2 columns)
3. Add a Jira Issue Macro for a single issue to the first row and first column
4. Click in the third row and first column to place your cursor
5. Use the + to add a Jira Issue Macro for a single issue

Expected Results

The macro is placed at the current cursor location

Actual Results

The macro is placed in the first row/column, as shown below:

Notes

It seems that this only affects macros added via the + option in the Confluence editor toolbar. Pasting a link to a Jira issue always seems to work, and placing a macro via '{' seems to work (I could not replicate using that test).

Workaround

• Copy and paste the URL of Jira Issues
• Use the '{' keyboard shortcut to place a Jira Issue macro instead of the + option in the toolbar
