I am trying to set up an automation in Confluence in which, when a page is updated, an automated notification is sent listing: * Which page (title and URL) was changed * Who made the change * A summary of the changes. Note that this summary can be something as simple as "these lines were added/deleted/modified/whatever". So far this works except for the last item. There does not seem to be a Smart Value that links to only what was updated. Can anyone help with this?

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Trying to get AI Automation to return a summary of page changes

You could use the ai.Summary smartvalue.

Page: {{title}}
Author: {{author.fullName}}
Time of Change: {{dateLastUpdated.mediumDateTime}}
Summary of Change: {{aiSummary}}

Thanks Shawn, I tried using {{aiSummary}} but it just returned an AI writeup of the entire page. I can't figure out how to get just the changes. I know Confluence has this ability because it can highlight changes in a page using Diff in History.

The 2 smart values listed for AI are:

{{page.aiSummary}} - an AI generated summary of a page

{{page.aiActionItems}} - an AI generated list of action items of a page

I don't believe there is a way to do a version diff in Automations yet. The ai.summary is the closest thing.

@Jacqueline Kushner How is the information you're looking for different than what you would get in a notification or by using the Daily Digest or Real-time updates in your Personal Settings > Email?

Jacqueline Kushner

Thanks Barbara.

I use the Daily Digest feature and it does provide similar reporting but not quite what I am looking for. Daily Digest gives me a list of all the pages in all the spaces I own and not a specific set (the ones I am interested in are marked with a label), and it does not list the actual changes...just says that the page was updated. I still have to open each modified page & check its history to get that information.

Not sure what Real-time updates are; I will look into that feature (so far I cannot find it...it is a Confluence-provided feature?)

Barbara Szczesniak

On my page the Real-time updates settings are right below the Daily Digest Settings, as described in this article: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Introducing-refreshed-Email-Notification-Settings-for-Confluence/ba-p/2489015

Thanks...I found it. The Real time updates email notification function works, but still no summary of changes in the email is offered. I think Atlassian does not support this feature at this time.

Also seeking a solution for this. We keep meeting notes on single pages that are updated and update based on date headers.

I want the automation to recognize the added content at the last updated point, and include that information only in an email, so then the changes are the only thing automatically included in the email automation.

To workaround, I may need to create subpages for every meeting and allow the automation trigger to pick up that information instead.
