I am trying to make a table to help organize parameters for the request body in the description of a request for our API documentation. The problem I am having is that I can’t seem to get the property of colspan=“2” to extend a or across 2 columns as it should. I have tested the code outside of Postman and it is working as I expect. I put the code inline in my markdown with blank lines before and after the
elements as it says in the markdown docs. Here is the code that I am trying to use:
And this is what it returns. You can see that the 2nd column in the first 4 rows does not extend to the end of the table like it should from the <td colspan=“2”>\ for each of those cells.
Thank you @pranavdavar I am glad to learn that it is actually a bug and not something I am doing wrong. I’ve tried it in another markdown editor and it works just fine as you see here:
I also tried it using a pipe table like one would do in multimarkdown but that won’t render properly either. Hopefully postman decides to add this as a feature because being able to build a table the way I want to would be awesome for making things more clear to a user.
With this being the community forum and not the place where feature requests/issues are officially raised, the best thing to do is to create a new issue on our Github Issue Tracker.
