Is there a way to search for jira issues that are displayed in the Jira Issue Search?

Question

Here is the use case:

As a Confluence user,

I want to Search for keywords or labels that are displayed in a Jira Issue Search Macro

So that I can easily find related issues and their documented resolutions in Confluence.

Longer story- We have setup confluence to be a knowledge base and as we resolve issues that are tedious we are documenting the resolution and labeling the jira issues. So when normal users search for a potential resolution they can see all the related issues that may have more context. We also want a user to be able to search with keywords in the Jira description-which we would expect to show search results if searched in confluence.

Ok- maybe there is a more concise way to explain this:

If i'm searching in confluence (globale search bar) for a specific Jira issue that i know is displayed in a jira search macro- nothing comes up. How can i search the results of a macro query?

By using the Chrome Jira plugin:

Chrome Bar Integration

To integrate the RFP library into your Chrome search bar, do the following:

* In Chrome, go to settings -> Manage Search Engines
* Add a new one with* Search Engine: “JIRA RFP Library”
* Keyword=rfp
* URL: https://YOUR-COMPANY.atlassian.net/issues/?jql=text ~ "%s" AND type = RFP

Thanks Andrey,

Thats not what i'm trying to do.

If i were to search for a specific jira issue using the confluence global search- it currently doesn't search the jira results inside a jira search macro.

Thats what i'm trying to figure out- how to search using global search and have the search include macro results.
