How to add labels to the current page in a self-written user makro?

Question

I searched a lot, but nothing worked. There are downloadable Makros who manage to add labels you type into them, but as they´re not open source I can´t get behind that magic, which of course works, as I tested. Using the REST Api didn´t work, using the labelManager and labelUtil also lead to nothing. But I am sure there´s a way to use the labelManager to do so, maybe with the function "addLabel(Labelable content, Label label)" but there I don´t know with what to fill the parameters, beacause I have no access to the current page and I don´t know how to create a new label. Thanks for your help

Thank you for this macro. It still works with Confluence 6.11.2.

This is great!  Thanks for posting.

Can I use a field in my macro example "Document Number" that populates the label for the page.  I'm pretty new to this so I'm no sure how to do that yet.

I currently have my users populating a number of fields in a macro. I wanted to use the "Document Number" field to update the label of the page.

what should I add to do this?
