Thanks for the additional detail @karanjagdish, it’s very helpful 🙂 I can see you asked this question in a separate thread, too, so I have responded there: > [@Creating a dialog using AP.require('dialog') in AUI 9.0.3 results in Cross Origin Request](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/creating-a-dialog-using-ap-require-dialog-in-aui-9-0-3-results-in-cross-origin-request/41312/3): > > Thanks for bringing this to our attention @karanjagdish! It looks like this is a bug in AUI 9. I have raised [[AUI-5256] - Ecosystem Jira](https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/AUI-5256); please track this issue for the resolution. Cheers, Daz ---

Hi @Taylan, The AUI team do not have plans to implement or extract a Rich Text Editor (RTE) component at this time. I also think it’s unlikely to happen ☹. With that said, I have raised a request in the AUI backlog @ [[AUI-5257] - Ecosystem Jira](https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/AUI-5257) and will discuss it with the team. Though unfortunate, your options would be to either re-use a product-specific editor component, or to bundle your own. I appreciate that both options are not ideal. Are you building an app for Jira, Confluence, or both? Have you tried to use the Jira editor? If you’re using React, you could also try using the Atlaskit editor: [Atlaskit by Atlassian](https://atlaskit.atlassian.com/packages/editor/editor-core) Regards, Daz ---

Hi @daz, Thank you for your reply. It is still good to know what the current status is. Also thank you for creating a issue as well. Since I am quite new to Jira context(1 month of experience) I don’t know how to extract such a deeply integrated component like the Jira Ediot for my case. I am trying to develop a Plugin for Jira Server where the System Admin gets to utilise such an editor. I have also tried creating a thread for it ([How to initialize the WiKi-Renderer for an Admin Plugin?](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/how-to-initialize-the-wiki-renderer-for-an-admin-plugin/41189)) on the developer forums. I am not using react. I also went through almost all the tutorials on similar subject, but many links seem to either be dead or redirect me to the Cloud documentation. Do you maybe have a link for me where I could report such broken links? I will look more into Jira editor itself, thank you for that suggestion. Regards, Taylan ---
