How to dynamically create content on pages based on table data

MJM

I have such a simple problem and have no idea how to solve this in Confluence.

I have a page (Page A) with a table

ID      Name            Phone

111    John Smith   111-222-3333

112    Mary Smith   111-222-4444

I have other pages (Page B and Page C) where at the top of the page I would like to enter the ID from the table above, and have the Name and Phone number of that associated record shown on that specific page. So basically 3 pages. A is the table of person records, and the other 2 pages (B and C) would be the detail pages for that record, created dynamically based on a static entry of the ID at the top of those pages.

Is any of this possible? Thanks.

If you split up the table, then you might be able to make use of the Content by Label macro (e.g. use a label for each ID) or the Page Properties and Page Properties Report macros.

There are some CRM solutions in the marketplace that might solve for your example specifically https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?query=crm

But also have a look at the Reporting for Confluence app by ServiceRocket https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/186/reporting-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview

There are probably other ways to do this using just built-in functionality or making it easier to use the built-in macros for your use case, but that would be more complex to answer than I can here.
