Hi, I have the same set up as another user, we are both admins. Where else do I need to look to see why I can see automations in my confluence space?

HI @Adam Priestley 

Welcome to the community.

Based on your screenshots, you are not a space admin on the Confluence space shown and you are non a Confluence administrator as well.

This is what I can see based on your screenshots.

Hi @Adam Priestley -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

After the latest round of UX changes, Atlassian made it quite difficult to find automation rules for Confluence.  Please try this:

  • for a single-space scope rule
    • on the left side navigation
    • select a page's ... More actions
    • select Automate to create a rule for that scope
  • for a global rule
    • select the gear icon at the top right
    • select Automation

 

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi Bill, thank you for your swift response. I don't have a 'More Actions' option, nor do I have the option to select global automations. Please see screenshots. Thank you.

That would seem to indicate you are not a Confluence admin, so please check with your Site admin.

Did you try selecting a single page in the left-navigation with the ... options to add a rule?
