Questions:

  1. Use Cases of Automation in Confluence:

    • What are some use cases of automation designed to suit different purposes within various sections of a Confluence page, without using additional add-ons?
    • How can I set up multiple 'smart buttons' across the page, each dedicated to a particular section, and perhaps different buttons for different user groups to leverage (that may trigger corresponding actions)?
    • Would setting up these smart buttons require different content macro designs?
  2. User Group Setup for Email Notifications:

    • How can user groups be set up in Confluence to tailor email notifications associated with certain actions within the page?
    • If fully integrated with Jira, does the user group setup in Confluence need to align with the Jira user group settings?

Hi @Yu Zhang

welcome to community!

  • the use case are multiple depends the achivement you want to reach, there too many add-ons to suggest one without context
  • You can't set different permission level inside a page. a page is visible entirely or not.
  • yes you can configure different macro, here the guide

  • confluence doesn't have project/space roles, so you have to handle the notifications via groups in the admin section
  • depends if the confluence users have to login in jira. jira and conflu are 2 different apps with different billing user based, as per best practice you should keep the app access distinct in order to have full control on user's licenses. for exemple user A in order to access to jira have to be in the group jira-software-users-site-name and in order to use confluence in the group confluence-users-site-name
