How to add a url with single quotes in jira description

We have an automated job that add’s a url in the description of a jira ticket but the url has single quotes which is breaking the link …

enter image description here

Link as Text: http://localhost:5601/app/?_g=(refreshInterval:(pause:!t,value:0),time:(from:'2019-10-30 10:00:33',to:'2019-10-31 10:00:33')))

As shown in the pic the link is broken due to the single quote …if we try to add an escape character with ' (Html escape) the description already interprets it and we get a single quote and broken hyperlink

Appreciate the community help in resolving the issue.

Put your URL in brackets [] and it will be recognized as a URL by JIRA. You can test this by switching your JIRA text editor to Text mode, adding the brackets, and switching to visual.

For more JIRA Text formatting help, see Atlassian Documentation.
