The JIRA documentation does not mention a way to create a nested table something like
|outer-col1|outer-col2|
|col1 val1||inner-col1|inner-col2|
|icol1 val1|icol2 val1|
|icol1 val2|icol2 val2|
|col1 val2||col2 val2|
(or) atleast something where I can span a multiple rows for a column value
i.e.
|outer-col1|outer-col2|outer-col-3
|col1 val1 |col2 val1a|col3 val1a|
|col2 val1b|col3 val1b|
|col1 val2||col2 val2 |col3 val2 |
The only way I can span now is to have empty values in the column and have the reader assume that it represents the previous rows value for that column.
Found a way around to make nested tables at below linked page
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Nested-table-in-wiki-markup-Confluence-4/qaq-p/18355
The solutions suggest many tags that can be used to achieve this. A simple one is {panel} tag. Just wrap the Inner table inside two {panel} tags.
Below is a sample and its result
Sample
||Tabe1Column1||Table1Column2||
|item1.1|item1.2|
|item2.1|Sub table {panel}
||Table2Coumn1||Table2Column2||
|sub item1.1|sub item 1.2|
|sub item 2.1|sub item 2.2|{panel}|
No, this is not supported in JIRA out of the box.
However, the JEditor add-on that is available on the marketplace does support this.
Since JEditor replaces JIRA's wiki editor it can have quite some impact on a JIRA instance, depending on how your users are used to work with mark-up. It can also affect other add-ons, so best to test properly before buying.

I am trying to scrape a website for financials of Indian companies as a side project & put it in Google Sheets using XPATH
Link: https://ticker.finology.in/company/AFFLE
I am able to extract data from elements that have a specific id like cash, net debt, etc. however I am stuck with extracting data for labels like Sales Growth.
tried
Copying the full xpath from console, //*[#id="mainContent_updAddRatios"]/div[13]/p/span - this works, however, i am reliable on the index of the div (13) and that may change for different companies, hence i am unable to automate it.
Please assist with a scalable solution
PS: I am a Product Manager with basic coding expertise as I was a developer few years ago.
At some point you need to "hardcode" something unless you have some other means of mapping the content of the page to your spreadsheet. In your example you appear to be targeting "Sales Growth" percentage. If you are not comfortable hardcoding the index of the div (13), you could identify it by the id of the "Sales Growth" label which is mainContent_lblSalesGrowthorCasa.
For example, change your
//*[#id="mainContent_updAddRatios"]/div[13]/p/span
to:
//*[#id = "mainContent_updAddRatios"]/div[.//span/#id = "mainContent_lblSalesGrowthorCasa"]/p/span
which is selecting the div based on the div containing a span with id="mainContent_lblSalesGrowthorCasa". Ultimately, whether you "hardcode" the exact index of the div or "hardcode" the ids of the nodes, you are still embedding assumptions regarding the structure of page.
Thanks #david, that helped.
Two questions
What if the structure of the page would change? Example: If the website decided to remove the p tag then would my sheet fail? How do we avoid failure in such cases?
Also, since every id is unique, the probability of that getting changed is lesser than the index being changed. Correct me, if I am wrong?
What do we do when the elements don't have an id like Profit Growth, RoE, RoCE etc
we are using tags on work items on TFS, and while we can use it on the queries (field tags == 'something') we can not use it on charts, when we try to make a chart from the query the field tags doesn't appears on the select options. We would like to do a stacked chart based on tags field.
Query chart works for a flat list query, but not a tree query or a direct links query. And for the queries, it's impossible to group by tags. The featrue is unavailable at present.
There's already a user voice here to suggest the feature, you can go and vote it up to achieve that in future.
TFS supports querying on tags, but I can't find a way to create a TFS work item query to return results that have no tags or any tag.
It is not possible to sort the Tag column in the TFS web access, so I can't even return all work items and then sort on the column to focus on those with tags and those without tags.
For example, I was hoping to see a wild card or any for the Tags value below:
I'm about a year too late, but I just accomplished this by doing Tags, Does Not Contain, "". I know that makes no sense, but it worked. I was able to pull in a task that had no tag.
This is not exactly helpful in the tool, but works to get the information. I select all, copy, paste into a worksheet. I can format as table and sort the results to get what I need. It is not very helpful for in tool info, but it works. Another option is to install the TFS Plugin with Excel, you can create and modify items using an existing query, sort items, add items, filter to show only items that do not have a tag, etc.

Can you do Tags=""?
I am not sure I understand the use case, but you can sugest new features on http://visualstudio.uservoice.com
I am in need of a way to search against two concatenated columns with a Criteria in a grails project that I've been brought onto. The two columns make up a subject code for a University; a three-alpha-character code and a three-digit number. e.g. AAA123.
My research to date hasn't revealed any straight forward solutions because I have the following requirements:
I need to use Criteria for the PagedResultList as the UI (Javascript/Ajax) works off the paged list and totalCount.
I need to be able to use a wild card search, if the user searches for the alpha code (all subjects starting with 'AAA') or the specific subject ('AAA123').
e.g. subj_code = '%AAA%' or crse_numb = '%123%' or subj_code || crse_numb = '%AAA123%'
What I've found so far is that:
a) With Criteria, I cannot concatenate the columns (unless I've missed something)
b) I cannot use transients to join the columns
c) I cannot use findAll or where because they do not return PagedResultList.
If anyone knows of how to perform this using criteria or returning a PagedResultList, I'd be forever grateful.
In this formula property can help you because formula can participate in queries and it is transient by default.
Steps-
Create a formula property and concatenate your strings there.
use this formula property in your criteria query.
Use this post for writing formula property.
Hope this help
I have an app that displays a number of rows of products. Right now it's hardcoded to use three html rows. I really want to build a template for one row, and loop through and populate as many as I need to show up. I was thinking this is a job for Web UI loops (think fruitsearch example). Or do I want to build the template and make it a web component and pass my data to that? I'm really not sure what the best structure is here. This is a bit of an open-ended question, but what's the ideal structure for populating multiple rows of data?
Use Web Components when you need re-usability, or if your rows have complex logic or layout associated with them.
Given your description of "rows of products" I would use a Web Component for each product row and possibly another Web Component to keep track of all the product rows. For instance, if this is a product search result page, the SearchResultComponent could have a title, a list of ProductRowComponents and the number of results found, and each ProductRowComponent could have a name, a price and an image.
This would make it easier to handle the complexity involved as well as allow re-usability (i.e. using multiple ProductRowComponents).
