Macro to auto populate Confluence table with data from JIRA filter?

Question

Does Confluence macros have the ability to take data from JIRA filter results and populate them into Confluence table?

The reason why I need to copy the data is because this is intended for CAB meeting records, so the data needs to be "static" and not "dynamic".

Please note that I'm currently using server version and not cloud version.

Hi @Jerry Yen

Comala Publishing lets you make static versions of documents and this is one of our use cases. We know it's a hassle to create reporting with live macros involved, so this is the perfect solution for you. When a document is created, you just need to click the 'create snap' button. I'm a Product Marketing Manager for this app, so please let me know if you have questions. We could also set you up with a live demo.

Thanks!

Hi @Jerry Yen

Then you will have to code your own custom macro... cause there is no way to do that in Confluence Server / Datacenter.

Here is the documentation about custom macro: https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/writing-user-macros-4485.html

Hi Harold,

This is what I do currently and was hoping that there was a way to automate this via Confluence Macro.
