      Issue Summary

      When trying to apply a Default value to a custom text field (Multi-line Text field) that contains an {expand} macro, it won't resolve.

      On the Create Issue screen, the Text field loads the default value but the {expand} macro doesn't resolve. It simply shows as "{expand}".

      It works with other macro markups (e.g. {panel}).

      According to the following guide with full notation, it seems that in fact the feature has not yet been implemented: Text Formatting Notation Help

      The same thing occurs if you try to add the {expand} through:

      • Create/Edit Issue Action in an Automation Rule.
      • Create/Edit Issue REST API endpoint.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Add a new Multi-Line Text field (or modify an existing one) and set the Default value to:

      {expand: Click to Expand}
      Content inside the expand
      {expand}

      3. The field must use the Wiki Style renderer.

      2. Check for the field on the Issue Creation Screen. The {expand} macro is not resolved as an expand element in the field.

       

      Expected Results

      The {expand} macro resolves in the screen

      Actual Results

      The {expand} macro does not resolve.

      Workaround

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