Custom forms in Confluence

[Lakshmi Narasimhan]

I want to build a custom form to get user feedback in confluence,  Can anyone help me how to go about this. I know i can do it thru HTML Macros but want to specifically know how to collect feedback for different users.

I would also suggest trying out the ServiceRocket Scaffolding plugin.  I've been using it for years and it is incredibly versatile, especially when combined with the Reporting plugin.

Hi @Lakshmi Narasimhan,

You can achieve this (Creating form for feedback) by utilizing the Scaffolding Forms & Templates. You can then extract the data and organize it into a report using the Reporting for Confluence.

Here are some examples/use cases:

Creating form: 

* Simple form: https://docs.servicerocket.com/scaffolding/user-guide/basic-tutorials/creating-a-simple-form

* Project form: https://docs.servicerocket.com/scaffolding/user-guide/miscellaneous-tutorials-and-recipes/creating-a-project-details-form

* form that require calculations: https://docs.servicerocket.com/scaffolding/user-guide/intermediate-tutorials/storing-data-and-using-that-data-for-calculations

Reporting Use Cases:

* https://docs.servicerocket.com/reporting/user-guides/recipes/pages/listing-contents-with-specific-text-or-macros

* https://docs.servicerocket.com/reporting/user-guides/recipes/pages/extracting-scaffolding-data-from-children-pages

* In case you would like to build a chart for the feedback, you can follow this example: https://docs.servicerocket.com/scaffolding/user-guide/miscellaneous-tutorials-and-recipes/generating-charts-from-a-dynamic-table-using-the-reporting-add-on

Hope this helps.

Hi @Lakshmi Narasimhan,

If you have the budget, I would go with this plugin called Forms for Confluence.

If you don't have the budget you can develop your own using this documentation for Confluence Developers.

Hope this helps!
