Now that JIRA phased out the old issue view, I was trying this on Jira Cloud new issue view on 25.04.2021 with Chrome Version 90.0.4430.85 on Mac OS 10.15.7 but I can't seem to be able to add the ClipboardEvent.

const evt = new ClipboardEvent("paste")
evt.clipboardData.items.add("**Wh")
--> Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'items' of null

I can't figure this out even after reading https://www.w3.org/TR/clipboard-apis/

Previously, I already had changed
$(".ProseMirror") from your script to document.getElementsByClassName("ProseMirror") as I was getting Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined... Do you know what might be wrong? Cheers, Dennis

Hey, glad you found use for the script -- I don't actively use this script anymore. I also don't use Chrome, so I don't know what the quirks are across browsers. The script seems to work fine in Firefox.

I used this source as a reference to this script.

Good luck!

@ds-clearago -- I gave the script a try today on Firefox and it still works. The issue you're encountering might be Chrome specific
