@Lars Bjorkens It seems like you are looking to implement a review process. Implementing this use case with Automation for Confluence is not straightforward, as it is not specifically designed for content lifecycle management (CLM). You could potentially build a rule which contains a branch rule that listens to certain…

@Jonathan Smith As Shawn also concluded, this use case - as many other content lifecycle management use cases - is not straighforward to implement with Automation for Confluence, as that is not dedicated to CLM. If you would consider a more professional approach and a dedicated solution, then it would be benefitial to…

@panita rattanakittiaporn If you are not in Premium (or need more content lifecycle-related metrics), your option is Better Content Archiving and Analytics for Confluence Cloud. It democratizes Confluence analytics and makes it available for all tiers. You can use the Confluence user activity report dashboards to learn…

Alternatively, you can view the number of contents created by users on the "Most active authors" gadget of the Confluence user activity analytics dashboard in Better Content Archiving and Analytics: It also contains more Confluence user activity insights, as well as page status, page statistics, and space usage-related…

@Lalithesh Yes, it will be possible soon, as the cloud version of Better PDF Automation and Better Excel Automation apps are to be released very soon. Drop me an email at levente.szabo@midori-global.com so you get notified as soon as it becomes available!

@Praveen P Better Content Archiving for Confluence provides flexible notification automation that you can use to construct a daily Confluence activity email that covers or comes close to your requirements. It can be even more useful than the built-in Daily Digest, as you can set up the notification to include pages from…

@Greg Bammel In a recent release our team added Confluence analytics features to Better Content Archiving including user activity reports. It's available for all tiers. There are 2 dashboards dedicated to Confluence user activity: User analytics and User engagement. This article about the Confluence user analytics report…

To make the listing of solutions complete, please note that Better Content Archiving has been enriched with comprehensive Confluence Cloud analytics dashboards for all tiers! In total, you can dive into Confluence usage statistics on 6 dashboards: * Space analytics: Most popular, fastest changing and fastest growing spaces…

@Chris K In the meantime, have you come across Better Content Archiving for Confluence? It's a go-to tool for Confluence content lifecycle management on both Data Center and Cloud with automatic page status, flexible notifications, advanced page ownership, and automatic archiving/deletion. The DC version has been helping…

This question comes up from time to time, I suggest you search for related discussions, like this. In short, you will probably be able to implement simple project management features, but not natively. You are better off selecting a specialized app for the capabilities that are not covered natively or not in good quality,…

As Aron mentioned, you need a (free) Bitbucket companion app that works with Better Commit Policy for Jira, called Better Commit Policy for Bitbucket. It allows you to apply the policies to your Bitbucket repositories.

@Isabella L_ An alternative approach to what already has been said is to switch to something more flexible and advanced than the built-in Confluence page status for managing and reporting on page status. Better Content Archiving and Analytics for Confluence brings you options to: * Add/create your custom page statuses (20…

@rahath There are a number of parts of your use case that's not entirely clear, but my question is how would you like tests to be represented in Confluence? Can every test be a page? If yes, then you could try the automatic page status feature of Better Content Archiving for Confluence. Each test would be a page and you…

@Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta That's a bit of a reach outside of what you currently use, but you can also use Better Content Archiving to automate email notifications and trigger custom reminders based on statuses / status changes. There is many other useful features for automating page status updates, archiving, and more, so give it…

@Sharon Liu I'm not sure what function "parent pages" fulfill in your spaces, or what exactly you mean by lifecycle management on the page level, but I encourage you to take a look at the lifecycle management capabilities of Better Content Archiving and Analytics for Confluence, the go-to content lifecycle management tool…

@Haddon Fisher I think many people agree with you there including myself. I also wanted to add that the problem is not only that A4C is not production-ready for large teams - the problem is that Atlassian demands a premium for it. Just think about this: A4C is available for Premium and Enterprise, the tier level where…

@Christofer Strasz Based on what I read on the topic, auto-populating any value is not a direction Atlassian is taking with Databases. Having to manually add values to the DB and also manually setting statuses are both blockers for larger teams. I think the only reliable solution is one that automates as many updates as…

Hi @Stephan Christel This is interesting and I'm curious to see what you can achieve with this. How many pages do you expect this rule to return/handle at once in production? Similarly, how many emails do you expect to be sent out?

@sshakya What you mention are known limitations to A4C, and this is why it's not a viable tool for Confluence content lifecycle management. Notably, you can't customize what is considered "inactive", you will get as many emails as many pages you report, and branch rule execution cuts off at 150 pages. Meaning that if you…

@Elisabeth Haeck Hi Eli, Yes, it clarifies and is exactly what I thought you were working toward as this is typically what we see with many teams we work with. Also, this is why we designed Better Content Archiving to cover the points you mentioned: * You can create and use 20 statuses so you can align your Confluence CLM…

Hey @Kristian Klima and all, I understand that this is a promising approach for displaying pages in a table-like format and getting a glance at some metadata, like last updated date, creation date, or owner. What I don't understand is how content lifecycle management (CLM) comes into play here. In my mind, Confluence…

Adding one more status is an amazing development, but I see the maximum of 5 statuses remained. This can work for smaller teams, even if with some compromises. For midsize or larger teams, it can't be fit into a document management workflow as that would require more than 5 statuses. I'm also skeptical that limiting the…

@Paul Rathgeb More on the notifications part: Note that Automation for Confluence sends one email per page, so if you are reporting 20/50/100 pages, your recipients will get flooded with that many emails instead of an elegant single email with a list of pages to review. Also, for A4C, branch rule execution will cut off at…

@Elisabeth Haeck Can you actually share more about your use case and what you are trying to achieve in terms of Confluence content lifecycle management with statuses? Is there a workflow or other criteria you would like to implement? Because based on your comments, a few things are not clear to me: * Those "custom"…

Sounds good! Reach out with questions here!

@Ewa Dudzinska You can set up flexible and automatic notification emails in Better Content Archiving. You can set up a notification that goes out every day or week, etc, and includes pages that are archived or in a certain status. Read more on automatic Confluence reminders in this tutorial blog. This email would go out…

Those without the Premium or Enterprise Plans will be able to use the Better Content Archiving app's reports to get a large collection of reports and charts about their site and also about a single space! I suggest you install the app now because it will start collecting the page views, page updates, etc. and other…

@Stephen McGeown That's great to hear. I'm still curious though: are 5 statuses enough for your content management workflow or to achieve what you want in terms of page status management?

@Stephen McGeown @Scott Gerdes You need to open the page up for editing first. Then you can change the status at the top of the page. By the way, the built-in status feature is limited to 5 centrally managed statuses. Will 5 statuses be sufficient for your workflows? If you are interested in a more professional, flexible,…

You are welcome @Mariam Hovhannisyan! Make sure you accept my answer here if you think it's right.
