Jira Wiki Markup (Text Formatting Notation) for formatting issue descriptions, comments, and custom fields. NOT Markdown—Jira uses different syntax. Use when formatting Jira text, creating tables/panels/code blocks in Jira, linking users/issues/attachments, writing Jira templates, or when any Jira formatting question arises. Triggers include "Jira markup", "Jira formatting", "Jira table", "Jira code block", "Jira panel", "link in Jira", "format Jira comment/description", "Jira wiki syntax".
