      Issue Summary

      If the master toggle "Formatted Text" is enabled, when an Epic is created and fetched through the API, the description field contains HTML values. Any Epics created while the toggle is not enabled are not affected.

       

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Enable the master toggle "Formatted Text" 
      2. Create an Epic on Jira Align
      3. Input any Description
      4. Save the Epic
      5. Use the GET align/api/2/Epics/:id for the ID of the created Epic

      Expected Results

      The description field is returned without HTML characters

      Actual Results

      The description field is returned containing HTML characters

      Workaround

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