confluence ondemand Unknown macro: {html}

Question

Hello,

I am trying confluence for the first time and trying to build a html form. however I am getting

Unknown macro: {html}

any ideas on what I might need to set. I have searched the plugins and no confluence html macro shows up.

My end challenge is to build a custom form to submit tickets to jira ondemand so any tutorials on this would also be appreciated.

thx

Yes, absolutely. You may also be interested in the JIRA Issue Collector, which is bundled with OnDemand.

Thanks you for the answer Michael. Do you know if jira ondemand will accept an api call to add data. I am thinking of building the forms on another webserver.

thx

The HTML macro is not available in OnDemand for security reasons: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AOD/Restricted+Functions+in+Atlassian+OnDemand

Generally, OnDemand won't let you insert arbitrary HTML. This is an attempt to protect against XSS attacks. At this time I don't believe there's a way to create a custom form in Confluence OnDemand.
