Smart value {{page.url}} is not giving back the correct URL

Eric Vervoordeldonk November 3, 2025

We have an automation in place that will send an e-mail to the page owner if the page is not updated for more that 90 days. We use the following template:

Please review <a href="{{page.url}}">{{page.title}}</a> in confluence as the page was last updated on {{page.dateLastUpdated}}, and if it is up-to-date (again) please set the status from {{page.status}} to 'Verified'.

It sems that the {{page.url}} is not giving the correct URL (It gives back https://nedschroef.atlassian.net/spaces/GITKB/pages/3243900930 but is should be https://nedschroef.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/GITKB/pages/3243900930 ) It seems that the  smart value is missing the /wiki part.

Hi @Eric Vervoordeldonk 

 

Looks like a bug. Please try to use {{content.url}} instead {{page.url}} and see if result is the same. If yes, you should ask Atlassian Support (https://support.atlassian.com) to clarify it.

 

Regards,

Seba

Hi @Eric Vervoordeldonk ,

I tried "{{page.url}}" and it gives the correct url. If you still have the issue, please contact Atlassian Support directly from https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/

As a workaround, you can make use of below content in smart values. 

Please review <a href="https://nedschroef.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/{{page.space.key}}/pages/{{page.id}}">
{{page.title}}</a> in Confluence as the page was last updated on {{page.dateLastUpdated}}, and if it is up-to-date (again) please set the status from {{page.status}} to 'Verified'.

Hi @Eric Vervoordeldonk , thanks for your post.

Have you tried also https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/smart-values-in-confluence-automation/#Content-properties--pages-and-blogs- 

{{content.url}}

to see if this smart value has the same issue / problem?

In any case, please open a support ticket to Atlassian, who would need to correct this - https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/ 

If the content.url works as a workaround, great, but Atlassian should be made aware of this missing 'wiki' from page.url smart value.

Cheers

Hey there @Eric Vervoordeldonk ,

Can you clarify if your Automation rule is using Branches?

If that's the case, you should use the List Smart Value instead of Pages:

{{authorInactivePages.url}}

The "Notify people about inactive pages when scheduled (recurring)" Template can be used as a reference.

Hope this helps! =]
