How can I automate the creation of a new page in Confluence as a Jira Legacy macro table updates?

[Nika Yadav]

I have a Confluence page which contains a Jira Legacy Macro table with about 15 entries. If I create one new issue in Jira, the number of entries will increase by one as well. I want to create an automation in Confluence that will check if an additional entry has been created in the table (meaning the same issue has been created in Jira already). I would like to pull the newly-created issue's summary and create a new page in Confluence with the newly-pulled summary as the title of that Confluence page and then post it. Is this possible, and if so how?

Thank you.

Hi @Nika Yadav

I would flip this around and not try to detect changes in the Confluence table at all. Instead, you could trigger from Jira, because that is where the real event happens.

In Jira automation, I would use a Trigger: Issue created (add a JQL condition if you only want certain issues) and Action: Create Confluence page, with the page title set to the issue summary using the smart value {{issue.summary}}
