Creating hyperlinks as a search function

Shane Cooney

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if it is possible to make a hyperlink a search function in Confluence.

Something similar to say

confluence.xyzcompany.com/pages then put in the search string you want the link to search for.

My rough idea would be to have

confluence.xyzcompany.com/pages?search="Blah Blah"

Is something like this possible?

You can go to the advanced search page in Confluence and it will create a search URL that you can copy and used based on the different filters that you put in place. You can also create your own CQL query as that is all the advanced search page is doing.

Hi @Shane Cooney ,

You may want to try something as below:

confluence.xyzcompany.com/wiki/search?text=<Blah>

Replace the <Blah> with the word you prefer.

Aside from that, have you also tried the live search macro? If that helps?

That is exactly what I wanted to do. Thanks Brant.
