Key Themes from the Last 30 Days

Based on recent questions in the Rovo Q&A forum, a few patterns stand out:

Agent Scope & Knowledge Confusion

Many users expect agents to “automatically know” content added as knowledge. In reality, retrieval depends on structure, permissions, and how queries are phrased. Pages work better than raw files, and explicit instruction matters.

Tables, Formatting & Determinism

Table rendering (especially Confluence wiki tables) remains a hot topic. The most reliable approach is deterministic templates and single-step rendering. Multi-step reasoning + formatting often causes drift.

Permissions ≠ Capabilities

A recurring theme: even org admins run into limits. Rovo acts within exposed platform capabilities, not raw user permissions. If something isn’t in the Teamwork Graph or supported by a Skill, it can’t be updated—no matter the role.

Automations & Reliability

Users are testing more agent-driven automations and discovering where things break: pagination limits, required fields, issue type IDs, and workflow constraints. Rovo is powerful, but not yet a full replacement for purpose-built automation logic.

Credits, Usage & Governance

Enterprises are increasingly asking hard questions about credit consumption, guardrails, and blast radius. There’s strong interest in better visibility, throttling, and admin controls—especially before wider rollout.

💡 How You Can Help Keep the Community Strong

• Upvote helpful answers so patterns surface faster

• Accept answers once resolved—it helps everyone

• Search first; many issues share the same root cause

Every accepted answer strengthens the shared knowledge base—and makes Rovo easier for the next person.

From @Kelly Stocker (Atlassian's Rovo Community Manager) and me (Rovo Community Champion): thank you for showing up, thinking critically, and helping others move forward. You’re not just answering questions—you’re shaping how Rovo is understood and used. 💙

Thank you @Dr Valeri Colon _Connect Centric_ for keeping on top of the questions & common themes! You are the true champion of this forum.

I love that I can be of help here - thanks for the recognition ❤️

Thank you, @Rebekka Heilmann _viadee_ ! That means a lot to me ❤️

Honestly, these reviews wouldn’t be possible without you and the others jumping in to answer questions in real time. Your contributions save me hours (and at times days) and make it so much easier to surface common themes. I’m really glad to hear the summaries have been helpful — you’re a big part of what makes this community work!

[Dr Valeri Colon _Connect Centric_]

Every month (or quarter, depending on how busy things get), I do a full review of the Rovo Q&A forum to keep it helpful, accurate, and organized:

• I read every question that’s been posted. Yes, all of them.

• For questions with accepted answers, I double-check for accuracy.

• For those without accepted answers, I mark the first factual, relevant reply — sometimes more than one if the full answer is spread across responses. Ideally, the original poster handles this… but let’s be honest, that’s often forgotten.

• If a question has no replies at all, I jump in to provide one. That way, even as Rovo evolves, people aren’t left hanging.

• I flag any spam or community violations to keep things tidy (fortunately, this part is usually quick).

• Then, I wrap it up with a summary of key themes for the period and update the leaderboard to recognize top contributors.

It’s all part of making sure the forum stays valuable as Rovo continues to grow.

Just a heads-up — I’m not an Atlassian employee. I’m a Rovo Champion (read: volunteer!) and part of Connect Centric, an official Atlassian service partner — which means we’re certified to deliver services and support across Atlassian tools.

I also collaborate with other champions: @Bryan Guffey dives deep into Rovo + Forge, and @Ciara TN helps keep the Rovo discussion board humming. The three of us work closely with @Kelly Stocker, Atlassian’s Rovo Community Manager. If you’re interested in contributing, Kelly’s your go-to!
