Levente Szabo _Midori_ Atlassian Partner

@Brandi Guess Great article! I tried to reach out to you via LinkedIn email to discuss an idea. Can you please check? thx!

@Saskia Veldhoen Use the statuses by Better Content Archiving and Analytics, that way you can embed the Page Status List macro (comes with the app) in your pages to list pages in any given status. (These statues are updating automatically and have further advantages over the built-in ones, see here.) It'll look like this:

That's a great suggestion, thank you @Rob Booke ! Only Bitbucket Cloud is supported by Better Commit Policy at this point, but to change this is exactly why we started this vote! Gitea is a trusted git client with 50.000+ stars on GitHub, but I have never seen it arise here on the Atlassian Community or in contexts with…

@julio_sanchez @angelaaa Yet Another Commit Checker is only available for Bitbucket Server and Data Center, and there’s no built-in equivalent in Bitbucket Cloud. The good news is that there’s a new solution purpose-built for the cloud that comes as alternative to Yet Another Commit Checker: Better Commit Policy for Jira…

Interesting use case! Automating assignee fields in Jira based on Bitbucket actions is a great way to tighten the feedback loop between developers and their tasks. If you're already thinking about linking code changes back to Jira, you might also find commit policy enforcement useful. With the new Better Commit Policy for…

@Ci Admin UPDATE The mentioned "commit policy plugin for data center" is now available on Cloud! Check if a valid Jira work item is present in commit messages, pull request titles, descriptions, and branch names. Implement your commit policies, commit message standards, and pull request rules in Bitbucket Cloud. Better…

@Ergin İpekçi @Özgür Kaya The solution has just shipped in the form of Better Commit Policy for Jira Cloud, together with its free Bitbucket integration, Better Commit Policy Connector for Bitbucket Cloud! You can define commit message rules using simple YAML configuration files, including rules like: Minimum and maximum…

@David Holder It's possible with Better Content Archiving and Analytics, as you have multiple options for email recipients. For example, you can select individual user(s) or a group to be notified, it's the most flexible way out there: How large is your instance? How many pages are you planning to process? Be mindful of…

@Glyndwr Bartlett As a Marketplace Partner, I often talk to Confluence users who experience strange behaviour with Confluence Automation (like this team). To your point, I recommend trying the free version of Better Content Archiving and Analytics, which brings advanced page status and notification solutions to Confluence…

Hi @Hayden Riden Atlassian hasn't changed a lot on this particular front. What exactly is the use case that you are looking to solve, and how do you imagine the perfect solution for it?

@Brandon A_ Rosadio Did you give the Better PDF or Excel Automation apps a try? Make sure to also check those out and reach out if you have questions! * Better Excel Automation * Better PDF Automation

@Lindsay Kirsch You're definitely not alone in wanting to include page statuses in reports without relying on third-party apps. However, Atlassian only partially solves content lifecycle management problems, so it could be beneficial to trust an established solution. Unfortunately, as of now, Confluence doesn't support…

@Sabine Rommel As an alternative for status and notification automation for your workflow, Better Content Archiving and Analytics allows you to create a workflow automation that sends out your custom notification message about pages that are "ready to review" to the right group of people, asking them to approve and take…

Hi @Amel Your description is exactly the one when Confluence users need to think about content lifecycle management. I wrote a guide on what we at Midori think about Confluence CLM, what the best practices are and how you should build your strategy with Better Content Archiving and Analytics, using: * automatic page…

Hi Koloman, I hear you and understand everyone in similar situations where apps are not an option. I always try to select my words carefully, not to be extremely promotional and only post if I truly believe the product we created for this community can add value, even if in theory. But I beg to differ with the statement…

Thank you for sharing these tips! Keeping Confluence content well-structured and up-to-date is definitely crucial for project tracking and reporting. For Confluence Cloud, Better Content Archiving and Analytics offers premium-quality analytics for Confluence content lifecycle management. And unlike Confluence Analytics,…

This limitation of only 5 page statuses can be used globally in Confluence is debilitating for a lot of enterprise content workflows. While offering more customizable page statuses may seem like "a small feature", I think it should be viewed as a part of a comprehensive Confluence content lifecycle management solution.…

Did you create those custom statuses that you are missing now in automation? I assume yes, from your words "I used them personally." I just wanted to clarify if you meant that you created the custom status initially. There must be some glitch or miscommunication on the documentation. As you know (I just tested it again to…

@Russell Zera Are you open to using a dedicated solution instead of Automation for Confluence? If yes, then Better Content Archiving and Analytics has a flexible and advanced page status system. It's more flexible than the built-in Confluence page status for managing and reporting on page status. Better Content Archiving…

@Nicolás Guzmán Just out of curiosity, what kind of analytics metrics are you interested primarily and for which Atlassian product?

@Ellie P. I think that's an excellent advice - automating archiving. I also think that that's just a start, because how do you know what to archive? What's considered not-viewed, not updated, to-review, etc for different teams? If you want a well functioning content lifecycle management system, I suggest read this guide I…

@Erki Tammik Given you are working with Better Content Archiving and Analytics for Confluence, the first step would be to define what "6-month old" mean by applying a status. Are these pages that haven't been edited for 6 months? Or haven't been viewed? Or both? Or simply pages that have been created 6 months ago? 1.…

@Brady Buttrey It is not possible in Confluence but Better Content Archiving is a go-to tool for all Confluence content lifecycle management requirements on both Data Center and Cloud versions. You can: * Set your rules for not-viewed pages * Set your rules for expired pages * Schedule email notifications for the above…

@Harsh That action is implemented by the Better PDF Automation app, a free counterpart app for Better PDF Exporter. It's still available for Jira Data Center.

@Harsh That action is implemented by the Better PDF Automation app, a free counterpart app for Better PDF Exporter. It's still available for Jira Data Center. Learn more about it here and reach out to us at Midori via our support channel if you have questions.

@Anita Chen Have you tried exporting the Jira dashboard to PDF with Better PDF Exporter? People usually have good results with it, although some gadgets prove to be more difficult to export than others. (I'm part of the Midori team developing Better PDF Exporter for Jira.)

@Tobias Kuechen First of all, I want to congratulate you on your decision to start dealing with this issue this early! We at Midori has been advising the largest Confluence customers since 2008 (think thousand of spaces and millions of pages) and almost all of their pains could have been avoided, had they implemented a…

Thanks, @Marc -Devoteam- , we appreciate the mention!

@Asvini Selvam Have you discovered Better Content Archiving and Analytics for Confluence and its custom notification automation feature? It allows for more professional content lifecycle management. You can: - Set your own schedule for notification emails (much moe flexible than Automation for Confluence) - Use the app's…

@Alfonso Leiva We established that it's a monthly limit. Not sure about you, but I think it's pretty restrictive for Free and Standard users, but there are alternatives. I was curious what Free and Standard users think about this and what "whishes" they have, so I created this survey to capture your opinion. I'd be glad if…
