What have you done to the Page Properties Report in Confluence Cloud?

Question

I have just been trying to use the Page Properties report in Confluence Cloud (its been quite a number of months since I last used it) and it is completely broken - What have you done Atlassian??

I am using filters for "current space" and sub pages for "current page" and the results are, well, I get a random list back - even get content when I have deleted the sub pages!

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I think I know the answer...

I re-visited my page after about an hour and it had updated correctly.

The indexing/re-indexing in Confluence for page properties is painfully slow - certainly with the instance and data sizes we have.

However, this is very frustrating when you are creating/building a page, adding a new page properties macro and trying to test to see that you have picked up the correct data with the filters you selected.  We also use indented folders and only pick up the children at each level.

Hi @David Laine

I tested this on my cloud instance and it seems to be working as expected.  I do see some quirkiness in the settings popup for the report macro, when the options do not display correctly, yet while awkward to fill out, once I did I was able to get the report to work.  I tested both modifying an existing report and creating a new one.
