Functionality to support maintaining fresh & relevant content

Question

Have searched the community portal but could not find what I was looking for.

In order to try and keep the page content fresh and relevant, is there any capability or macro available to assist page owners with monitoring the age of the posted content?

Maybe an email alert sent to owner information about specific content that is greater than x months old. Or a report that quickly highlights the age of content, based on the date it was added to the page. I'm thinking more about content such as links to GDocs, Powerpoints etc.

Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Better Content Archiving for Confluence

It can is tracking the modifications, views of each content separately. Then, if it is not updated for a certain number of days (this condition is configurable with a CQL query, so it is super-flexible), then it changes to the "Expired" status, for example. Statuses, conditions, everything is configurable.

Plus, you can set up periodic notifications that send out emails with the list of expired pages to the authors, last modifiers, individual users or groups (again, configurable!):

Make sure that you give it a free trial!

Hello Nigel,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

While there is no particular macro that will help with this in Confluence, there's some good advice on the questions below that could help you:

* Is there a way to get a list of pages that haven't been updated? 
* How to find information pages on Confluence which are outdated

Marketplace also has a few 3rd-party add-ons that may help you with this:

* Confluence Cloud Archiving Plugins

I hope this helps, but do let us know if you have any questions.
