Moving newly created Confluence page to a specific parent page

We are using Fireflies to transcribe our customer calls. Fireflies creates a page in Confluence automatically after the meeting with the name and date details from the calendar synchronisation, this is all working fine. Currently, I check the 'Recent' in Confluence and find and move the relevant page to a child page under the relevant parent page that is already in place for that meeting. The page already created has the same name and date.

I am trying to set up a rule that does this process automatically. I have started creating the rule but I can't figure out what conditions to set that would allow it to match the title name and move as a child?

Screenshot 2025-11-03 132859.jpg

As an example:

I have a page named 'Meeting 1 - Ops - 03.11.2025', which recurs weekly.

At the end of 'Meeting 1 - Ops - 03.11.2025', Fireflies publishes the transcript for this meeting into the linked Space 'Ops'

Automation sees the newly created page and moves it as a child under the parent page 'Meeting 1 - Ops - 03.11.2025'

As this happens on a weekly basis I need to filter by the date I'm guessing?

Thanks

Hi @Mujtaba shah 

In theory something like this, but you might want another trigger.

  • Set a trigger (e.g., "Issue transitioned").
  • Use the "Create Confluence page" action.
    • In the Parent page field, choose a temporary parent or leave it as is.
    • Use smart values to populate the page content and title, ensuring the new page's ID is stored in a variable like {{createdPage.Id}}.
  • Add a new web request after the "Create Confluence page" action.
    • Set the URL to the Confluence REST API move endpoint.
    • Use a variable like {{parentPageId}} to specify the target parent page ID from a previous step or smart value.
    • Use a method like PUT or POST with the appropriate payload to move the page.

@Mujtaba shah @Marc -Devoteam- Just a question: doesn't this somehow violate the rule that you cannot have 2 pages with the same name in the same space? Or does the page created by Fireflies each week have a different date in the name and you're moving it to the same parent that maybe doesn't have a date in the name?

@Barbara Szczesniak I've not had a chance to try the suggestion yet but you're right in saying it will clash being the same name. I could try to add Fireflies or anything else to separate the page from the parent name maybe?

Thanks

You should just determine what page naming structure makes sense for you.

Does the parent page that you were proposing with the same name have content on it or is it just a placeholder?

If it's just a placeholder, why not move the Fireflies page under the parent where you were putting the placeholder page? 

For example, instead of:

  • Meeting 1 - Ops
    • Meeting 1 - Ops - 03.11.2025
      • Meeting 1 - Ops - 03.11.2025 FF

You could just put the Fireflies page under the Meeting 1 - Ops page:

  • Meeting 1 - Ops
    • Meeting 1 - Ops - 03.11.2025

The parent page is populated with content before the Fireflies transcript will be sent to Confluence. Your second example is what I would like to achieve, I'm just unsure on my rule config to make it do it each time based on the Fireflies generated page so that moves each week when published.

Thanks
