I need to create a template that automatically is set to review in confluence when the template is publish.
Cand teh app does this?
To close on this request. The App Approvals for Confluence does work if you set up on a template with set approvers. I found the two bugs:
* The windows appears as a failure but when the space is created everything loads.
* Approvers groups do not load on templates.
Hi @Pedro Garzon
I do not think there is concept of Publish for template, you create a template then save it. The next step is to promote it.
Unless I am missing something.
yes, that is my goal. Create a template that includes "approvals for confluence sections" then save. promote. So, when a new users create from template, edits, and published it the approvals are triggered.
Is this possible. The app is getting errors when I tried to save approvals inside of the template
You can achieve this through automation.
Set up an automation rule so that when a page is published using a specific template, the page status is automatically updated to “Ready for Review”, and an email notification is sent to the approvers.
The approval process can then be handled in two ways:
Option 1 – Manual approval - simplest
Option 2 – Jira-based approval workflow - requires another automation rule in jira
@Pedro Garzon I couldn't confirm which app you're using, but if you are getting errors with it, you should contact the app vendor directly for support.
@Pedro Garzon ... greetings and great question!
As Asha mentioned, you can use automations as a possible solution.Additionally, if you're open to a Marketplace app, Aura Workflow & Approval might be worth looking at. And in full disclosure, I'm with Aura Apps (a product of Seibert Group GmbH) the company behind it.
What Aura does is let you define multi-state workflows (e.g., Draft → In Review → Approved) and apply them automatically to pages based on labels. So if your template adds a specific label to pages created from it, Aura can detect that label and automatically place any new page into an "In Review" state the moment it's created or published. From there, assigned reviewers get notified, they can approve or reject, and the page advances through the workflow accordingly. You can also configure Aura to automatically restrict the page during review so it isn't visible to the wrong audience until it's approved.
One thing worth clarifying: Aura applies workflows to Confluence *pages*, not to Confluence templates themselves. The workflow triggers when a page is created (often from a template) and published, not when the template is edited. If that fits your use case, it should work well.
Let me know if you have questions about how the label-based auto-application works — happy to go into more detail. And if you'd like to see how the workflow builder looks in practice, there's a demo environment linked from the Marketplace listing.Hope this helps!

Thank you. I'm using an app called "approvals for confluence"
