If your companies are using Chrome and Edge (Chromium) to access Jira Cloud, you can make use of our LaTeX for Jira Chrome extension to write and view LaTeX content inside Issue Summary, Description, and Comments.
The Jira app is still required to be in trial or subscribed mode, as the browser extension will verify the license of the Jira app.
This section will be updated after the browser extension is approved.
Visit Chrome Web Store and install the Chrome extension at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/latex-for-jira-cloud-math/hhamhpelagjbpokfnbhbbgidekkmpbgf.
Please follow the instructions here to install the extension from Chrome Web Store https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/add-turn-off-or-remove-extensions-in-microsoft-edge-9c0ec68c-2fbc-2f2c-9ff0-bdc76f46b026.

Since Atlassian Wiki fields automatically convert some content to formatted blocks, such as **bold** becomes bold, the practice to insert LaTeX content is as below.
Type the backtick.
Type the pair //(//).
Type the backtick, again. Atlassian Wiki editor will convert the content to a code block.
Type the LaTeX content between the pair //(//).
Click Save and see the result.
Type the backtick.
Type the pair //[//].
Type the backtick, again. Atlassian Wiki editor will convert the content to a code block.
Type the LaTeX content between the pair //[//].
Click Save and see the result.
For plain text fields like Summary, inline LaTeX must be wrapped inside //(...//) and LaTeX block must be wrapped inside //[...//].
