How to prevent JIRA from inserting a backslash before markup tag's opening curly bracket via api?

[Roman Zanevski]

Hi to community! Here is my problem:  I'm tying to add issue comment with code block via jira api, using python. When I do POST request with markdown {code} [my code] {code}, I have in comment: \{code} [my code] \{code} with invivsible backslashes.

That's how it looks in "Edit" view:

How can I solve this problem with api? Thanks!

Hi! 

Did you set via wysiwyg editor or rest ? 

If it is wysiwyg, please, try to use wiki editor 

Cheers,
