      Atlassian Update - 13th Jun 2022

      Hi Everyone, 

      As informed earlier, the new Issue Create experience has been rolled out to 100% of our users in Jira. Additionally, we have recently announced that the process to deprecate the legacy Issue Create experience will begin this month. 

      We are also actively monitoring feedback and resolving any bugs our customers are reporting and you can find the latest updates to the fixes https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-77212

      As the primary goal of this ticket has now been achieved, we are going to close this ticket.

      Thank you.

      Summary

      When creating an Issue in Jira, text Wiki renderable fields such as the Description field are displayed in text mode which does not format the markdown syntax. This happens because the Create Issue screen still uses the old view.

      This means that on the Create screen, you're seeing a bunch of symbols (+,*,-,{) and need to rely on knowing the syntax and seeing the output after creating the issue or by changing the field to "view" mode.

      bold
      italic
      colour
      strikethrough

      Suggestion

      Apply the new Jira issue view in the Create Issue screen so the formatting of the Wiki markdown is clearly visible.
