Can a JIRA Issue link to a confluence page with an excel file?

Rena Mack

I did read the community blog, but could not understand. Here is the use case:

1. Create a JIRA with a link to a Confluence Page

2. Confluence Page has an Excel.

3. People on the JIRA Issue with click on Confluence link to go to Confluence to update Excel.

Plus I am using Firefox Quantum, where I read the Office Plugin (?) is not working.

Thank you....Rena

Dear @Rena Mack,

point 1 to 3 is pretty fine - that works as designed by Atlassian. The issue with the Office Plugin (via WebDAV) and your Firefox Q I cannot answer.

At least the users could download the Excel file, edit and upload again. This would create a news version of the document for versioning in the attachments. Not pretty comfortable but it will work.

So long

Thank and terrific. Can you point me to the documentation that states how?

Dear @Rena Mack,

this is quiet simple. A user downloads the excel file either by clicking on it, while in the attachment view of a page, or while clicking on a link to the attachment within the page (that link must have somebody created before).

Then the user can download the file locally and edit.

When done, the user has to got back to the attachment view of the page and upload (or simply drag and drop) the modified file without changing it's name.

Confluence recognizes this and starts versioning your document. You can expand the attachment entry and now see 'Version 1', 'Version 2 (current)'.

That's all!

So long

Thomas

@Thomas Deilerthank you. We may be talking past each other.

The question is, how do I put into a JIRA ticket a link to a confluence page or object?
