Side Conversation Improvements

Would like to be able to insert tables or grids that retain their formatting when pasting them into side conversations. For example, if you copy a calculation grid from Excel and paste into a side conversation, it removes all the formatting and is very difficult to view. This works fine in the standard part of ZenDesk tickets, as the grid stays intact, formatted correctly, but does not in side conversations. Is there a way to have side conversations function the same as the regular Public Reply and Internal Note sections do?

Hi Randy. We're currently in the process of investigating parity with the Ticket editor, so this is definitely something we'll be aiming for as part of that. Thanks for the feedback!

Love this idea ^^

Somewhat related: would love for admins to be able to define a standard template for "side conversations" messages.

I think this would be an efficient way of coercing agents to include relevant details on a ticket when they ask for a second opinion in Slack.

Hi all. We are getting close to shipping the same underlying editor as the main ticket composer, so that will put us in a much better place to support tables. No timeframe just yet, though.

Hi Zendesk team (@toby12)

Any updates on this one?

Sparkly's app "Tables".   (@real) is very good but unavailable on side conversations,

Best regards,
