Custom JIRA field based on versions does not display correctly in Confluence

[jllange]

I have a custom field in JIRA called "Planned Release" and it is a version picker.  When I try to display this column in confluence, I get a series of numbers, which I am guessing is the internal ID of the version, rather than the version name.

Hello Jennifer,

I was able to take your example and test through without issue. I tested on Jira 7.12.3 and Confluence 6.12. I created a custom field with a single select drop down and created it with 5 versions. From there I created a Confluence page with the Jira issue/filter macro and displayed the issues from my project. Here is what I am able to see within testing:

To further test, please let me know what version of Jira and Confluence you are actively using and I can attempt to re-create on those versions to see if there is a problem.

I look forward to your response so we may get this resolved and working for you!

hi Stephen! Thank you so much for looking into this, here is what I see, the first in JIRA the second in confluence:

Hello Jennifer,

I attempted to recreate on the same versions you listed (Confluence 6.10.1 and Jira 7.12.0). I attempted to break the application links, recreate the application link and add additional custom fields. I was unable to recreate what you’re seeing on your end.

The good news is it seems there is a bug report with similarities to your current issue. You can find more for the bug report at CONFSERVER-43035. I will be linking this post to the bug report, we also suggest you vote and watch this to get future updates.

For the time being, there is not a current work around that is not disruptive. I have created a support request on your behalf for this issue as it may be something that may be resolved outside of an update. You should have an email shortly with the details of the support case.
