Confluence automation

Question

Hello, can the new Confluence automation help build a reference resource with expiration dates for each page and notifications?

much of our documentation is in Confluence and I would like to create a single source for multiple Teams to view. In some cases the information requires review monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually. Can Confluence automation assign a review date to a page, a status if overdue, and can it send notifications based on the status?  
I had hoped to ask about this at the Community meeting in NYC but won’t be able to make it.

Thanks very much,

Dawson

Hi @Dawson Smith

your request is beyond the scope of Confluence's built-in automation. However, your use case is a good fit for Breeze, available via the Atlassian Marketplace.

It implements automated content analyses and provides dedicated views for outdated pages ready to review or archive.

In fact, it is a full-fledged content lifecycle management solution and features

* automated content analyses,
* page review and archiving workflows,
* page and space ownership,
* reports and notifications,
* bulk archiving and deletion,
* analytics,
* data export for processing all your content, ownership, and status information  via CSV
* and more to update outdated pages quickly and enhance collaboration.

👉 Feel free to give it a try or schedule an appointment with me for a personal demo.

Cheers, Adrian from B1NARY (the developers of Breeze)

We have a free addon, Keep it up to date!, which allows you to create tables which show outdated documents.  I think it fits most or all of your requirements.  Just try it.

You could e.g. show all documents which have not been updated in 30 days, which are e.g. in a specific space.  And so on for the other periods.

Hi @Dawson Smith

I don't think that confluence automation can do that. Perhaps you can try comala document management app for this. Might help https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/142/comala-document-management?hosting=cloud&tab=overview
