Confluence Rule that sends 1 email per author instead of multiple

[Cyril Philemon]

I have a rule set up to alert page authors of pages that have not been updated in over 3 months. 

The rule runs just fine, but it sends an email per page. 

Is there a way to have it send a single email that lists all the pages?

Hi @Cyril Philemon 

The scenario you describe is similar to one for Jira issues handling, and here is a how-to article to send one email per assignee: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/automation-to-send-email-only-once-per-assignee-1310985609.html

For your purpose, I believe the rule could use a page lookup (rather than an issue lookup), and then branch over the distinct page authors.  Once inside that branch, use another page lookup to gather their pages and send them the notification.

Kind regards,
Bill
