How can I create a parent page and multiple Sub-Pages with automation?

Bernd Anderer

When an Issue is create in Jira, I want to create a NewPage  in a Confluence space, plus a list of sub-pages underneath the newly created page. The result should look like this:

Space

-NewPage

-- Page1 - x

-- Page2 -x

-NewPage2

--Page1-y

--Page2-y

the name of NewPage is based on the issue created in Jira. The Subpages will have a name that consists of a fixed part (e.g. Page1) + some individual part (e.g. -x)

The idea is, that with each new Jira Issue, I want to setup a documentation structure in Confluence, that will be the same for each new Issue.

How can I do that? I tried it in Jira automation - but don't really know on how to use the 

{{createdPage}} variable, to reference the first page as parent for all the sub-pages

Any idea on how I can achieve this?

Thanks in advance

Hello @Bernd Anderer 

 

You can test this automation rule, where a page in first action is being created based on the summary of the issue, the second action is creating a sub-page and in the "Parent page" field, the page that was made from the first automation is being selected.
