Automated attachments to confluence

[Adriana Ramírez]

Hello,

How can i make a page in confluence to publish/share the installers that we develop in a sprint?

I want to know the both ways, manual and automated.

This is an example for what exactly i want to do:

https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/download-archives

Hi Adriana,

That's a great idea and I see how useful that can be. Could you tell me if you are using any other products to store your installers, or are they all being hosted in Jira? For example, are you using Bitbucket?

What version of Confluence Server and Jira Software are you using? 

I just want to make sure I have the right information to suggest something for you.

Regards,

Shannon

Hope this will be helpful

Thank you

Adriana,

Thank you for that information. I was wondering how you are currently storing the installers?

Hi Shannon,

Thank you for answering, I´m not storing the installers, I'm new in atlassian tools and i want to know how to do it. If you could give me some tips or link pages it would be great

Kind Regards,

Adriana,

So your team has not created any installers yet? We'd need to know where they're pushing the releases so we know where Confluence would need to pull this data from.

A lot of teams are using Bitbucket to push releases and you can use the same tool to archive your installers, but there's no integration with Confluence. You would instead send your customers to your Bitbucket repo downloads page.

Hi Shannon,

We are using bitbucket and got Production and Development Branches .To push from custom branch (Generated from jira issues) to development branch we are using pull request.

In a future, I prettend that the QA Team make the pull request from Development to Production after sucessful test. Actually I don´t know how to do it and my bamboo is not configured yet.

Actually we are generating the installer "manually" and this is not commited or pushed in bitbucket. For share the installers (.exe) we are using Tortoise SVN that is our old versioning tool.

So we want to migrate from old tools to Atlassian

Adriana,

Thank you for explaining that to me, and I'm terribly sorry for the delay.

Generally, you'd want to store these in a repository or something somewhere, but in Confluence, you could use the Attachments Macro to store your files, or a 3rd party add-on, such as:

• Include Bitbucket for Confluence
• Connector for Google Drive and Confluence
• Git for Confluence

Have a look there, and let us know if you have any questions about anything.

Regards,

Shannon
