How to add Customized Confluence page property report

[Michael Pfannkuchen]

Hello together,

We plan to use approximately 20 Confluence page properties to index the content of specific Confluence pages.
I would like to automatically generate a well-structured page property report for each Confluence page based on these 20 page properties and embed it into the Confluence page.
What would be the best way to achieve this?

Many thanks for your help: Michael

Hi, @Michael Pfannkuchen,

In this case, a custom use macro can do the thing. I've been experimenting with our app and managed to achieve a good result. 

Actually, the solution is pretty customizable and can be adjusted to meet your requirements. Here's a ready-to-use template.



Please let me know if this helps.

Hi @Michael Pfannkuchen ,

did u try to take a look to content properties macro (https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-page-properties-macro/ )? I don't know if it could help you.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Hello Fabio,

many thanks for your quick answer.

But my issue is with the appearance of the Page Property Report—when there are 20 properties, the report generates a table with 20 columns, and it just doesn't look professional, especially when some columns contain longer text and others don't.

Maybe there is a possibility to create a customized page property report by Atlassian Confluence Automation, triggered every time when the page is updated.

Do you have any idea about this?

Best regards: Michael

Just as update for the "ugly page property report issue": 

Currently we are thinking about a Forge app, written by Rovo. This app shall visualize the page properties as nice report within Confluence.

For space-wide reporting, we will try to implement an external Python app, getting the interesting page property data over REST API v2.

Any hints, further implementation sugggestions about these 2 ideas welcome - stay tuned :-)

Best regards: Michael
