Searching JIRA issues in Confluence form

Question

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is any way from Confluence/JIRA, or any third party plugin available, to include a JIRA issues searchbox in a Confluence form?

This is my use case:

Let's assume that my JIRA issues are customers, with all their account details embedded in custom fields. I'd like to have a form in Confluence allowing me to contact (generating emails, or PDFs etc.) all the customers having a specifity that I can define (e.g. all the customers living in that city, city being one of my custom field).

I looked into forms from Adaptavist, and other forms plugin supplier but still haven't found what I'm looking for. Any idea?

Thanks for your help.

Hi

A custom user macro with a simple form to utilize a Jira search REST APIs should do the trick.

Have you considered this?

There is no OOTB solution and I did a quick search in the Marketplace and could not find a solution.
