Document Generation: Conditional Content with table cells

I have found that when using the Conditional Content feature and inserting the condition inside of a table cell, the conditional-section gets rendered in the PDF output. If the same conditional section is used in a normal paragraph it gets evaluated correctly.  If this is the expected behaviour then this is a major limitation of the service.

I apologize, but yes, it is a known (and internally reported), limitation. If I get an update, I'll share.

We're running into the same limitation. Is there any solution for this yet?

Not yet. Obviously you could do it yourself before sending the data. So for example, if you want to conditionally change text in rows of data, you can process that before sending it to the API.

Has this been resolved? I still seem to be having the issue and this was reported over a year ago.

We should have a resolution very soon for this - can't say specifically, but very soon.

Same issue.. it's pretty obscene that it takes 2 years to resolve something as simple as adding a line break in a table cell.. @Raymond Camden any updates?

Check out the new table tags - it should correct this issue.
