Hi Liz, on the page containing the excerpt head to the page information and have a look at the incoming links section. Every page including the excerpt should be listed here together with pages using regular links to that page. Best, Max

Hi Sara, you have to log time against an issue. There are many ways of solving your question. One of the could be a project per employee with a specific (fixed) set of issues to log time against (internal, vacation, training, travel, whatever). Or have just one general project with some issues everyone can log time…

What do you think would be "similiar" in Confluence? Confluence is not as feature-rich and complex as Jira. And there are three skill badges listed (not all available yet) for Confluence to add to a ACP-200. 

Hi Sasha, as far as I know you can't monitor your space consumption for Jira and Confluence Cloud but Atlassian will reach out to you if you exceed the limit according to the Atlassian Cloud Storage Policy. But feel free to reach out to the support team to get some information on your data size. Best, Max

Can't wait to get some feedback/your opinion on the exam and the prep :) 

As the others said, just ignore/delete them. I always smile, when they try to sell data about Greenhopper users... :D

Hey Marc, honestly. I think there is no sense in looking for a solution for an old Confluence (time- and money-wise). Even if you can find something on the Marketplace, I doubt it will be that far backwards compatible (Advanced Tables for Confluence is very nice, but also needs 5.10+). If you want to convince someone to…

Hi Marc, what do you mean? A workaround for earlier versions of Confluence? 5.9 has been released in Nov'15 and there have been lots of other improvements as well. Just update the instance! ;) Best, Max

Hi Rosemarie, unfortunately the Manage Sprint Permission includes * Creating sprints * Starting sprints * Completing sprints * Reopening sprints * Reordering future sprints * Adding sprint goals * Deleting sprints * Editing sprint information (sprint name, goal, dates) * Moving the sprint footer So you can't separate that…

Hi Yair, the frameworks for both systems are totally different as the systems are as well. So basically you will always have to develop two apps, even if you can re-use parts of the codes. And of course the possibilities what can be done differ on both platforms. But I'm not a developer myself. So maybe someone different…

Okay, great Chris! Glad you could solve that :)

Hi Matthew, just create a new page template in your space according to your needs and then use the "Create from Template" macro in Confluence (and select the created template as your choice for clicking the button) on a page. Best, Max

Hi, can you make sure that you're allowed to browse all issues in the project/s in general (Maybe the Browse Projects permission is only granted to "Assignee")? And also make sure the board filter is not filtering for something like assignee = currentUser()?

I think Nic brought up a good point. The basic search is good for most of the users and of course the more "special" your search has to be, the more confident you have to be with writing good queries and using the right functions/operators/etc. . And the advanced search documentation is a must-have for that but at least…

Hi Clemens, can you please check if you got the Add/Delete Page Restrictions permission in that space in addition to the Space Admin permission? Edit: If the problem persists although you got all permissions necessary, please reach out to the support as I think they can be of better help on a Cloud instance :)

Hi Shrikant, your key-value pair looks fine as long as the group is existing in your instance. I guess your permission scheme is also allowing the editing of issues to a lot of users or a group which jira-administrators are members of? Works for me:

Hi Chris, to help you here I think we need some more information. There are a lot of ways to get tabs on a page (user macros, bough apps etc.) so we don't know for sure HOW they got on your page and if the content is embedded from another page (so you would have to edit a different page) or created within the macro. Could…

Hi Clemens, you can manage the permissions as administrator in the Settings of your Cloud Instance (Security -> Space permissions) and then remove restrictions from pages in the Space tools. Best, Max

Tea or beer always works for me. But more important is music. Fastest way for me personally. Preferably in that mood something good, fast and hard. Even better if you can have a little sing-along with your colleague to Tenacious D ("Tribute") or Queen ("Bohemian Rhapsody") :D

Hi Rich, how often do your projects change? It sounds a bit weird to me to be honest. Why not just build a dashboard for each project your owning in that sense? And then go through them every day and you have all information available that you could need. Are you using project categories already? That would be an easy way…

Hey Rich, sorry for that. I got you wrong from the beginning. So just to have a list of your projects is (from what I know) not possible. I think you could write an own Gadget for that if you want to. But you can get around that a bit with using a 2-Dimensional Filter Statistics Gadget and using the following JQL query…

Could you please provide a screenshot of the "user and roles" settings for the project and the query you used so we can fix the syntax? :)

Hi Rich, what is your role or function in that projects so we can see how to best filter for that. Are you for example the project lead? Then projectsLeadByUser() would be the best choice. Or is it really a project role you're in? projectsWhereUserHasRole(rolename)

In addition to Josh's answer, I just refer to the very detailed licensing FAQ that can be found on the Atlassian website: Confluence Licensing and Purchasing

Hi Jarvin, is this system-wide or for a space? Can't you solve that using the default space permissions and NOT granting them the "add pages" permission? Best, Max

For further reading let me link to the documentation: Managing versions

Hi Frank, a version is not comparable to an issue type. You can select a version in the Affects Version/s or Fix Version/s system field for example. So you add issues to a version. Issue links are used between issue types :) Best, Max

Hi Michele, I'm glad that I could help you with that. :) Best, Max

could you please provide screenshots/queries on how you set up the Browse Projects permission in the project and the boards for troubleshooting? Thanks :)

Basically, I would simply use a new "read-only" project role to add the external users to the project, grant them the Browse Project permission, set up the filter/share of the board in the same way and you should be done :)
