  • Hi @Ollie Guan , I'm a technical writer on the Confluence Server and Data Center team, and just wanted to let you know that I recently confirmed with my team that we are continuing to invest in Companion, and have no plans to end support for the Companion App method for editing files in Confluence Server and Data Center.…
  • Hi @Divya TV, The Data Pipeline features were released over a number of Jira releases. You're correct that in Jira 8.14, all functionality is provided via the REST API, and there are also some differences in what is exported, so the best option is to refer to the documentation for your version of Jira. Jira 8.14: Data…
  • Webhook support will be available in Confluence 7.7.0 for Server and Data Center. Registering a webhook can be done through the UI or using the REST API. You can check it out right now in the Confluence 7.7 Beta, or take a look at the documentation: * Managing webhooks (beta documentation) * Webhooks (developer…

  • My apologies for the confusion caused by the REST docs being published too early.

  • It's not possible to register a webhook in Confluence 7.2. We've been working on adding webhook support, and the REST documentation was published too early. Sorry for the confusion this has caused. Webhooks will be available in Confluence 7.7.0 for Server and Data Center. Registering a webhook can be done through the UI or…

  • Hi @jbarr, sounds like the page itself (or a parent page) is restricted. You'll need to go to the page and add the person in the page restrictions dialog. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Page+Restrictions for how to do this…
  • Thanks for sharing your tiled layout @Thomas Bowskill , yes our theme is a bit too narrow for that, but I like the way you've used the panels to visually define each step. And I hope as our documentation improves, you need to create less guides of your own. Thanks @Sachin and @Matt Reiner _K15t_ look forward to improving…
  • Hi Jeremy, Sorry we don't have a single list of every Confluence feature, but our documentation is quite comprehensive if there's a specific feature you're interesting in making sure you can use. * Confluence Cloud documentation * Confluence Server and Data Center documentation In terms of having test cases to use for your…
  • Unfortunately no, we don't have that capability at present. This problem only applies to the latest space, so you wouldn't see release notes etc in search results for Version 6.14 for example. Not ideal, but might be helpful if you're not running the absolute latest version (and once you've navigated to the page you're…
  • Hi Anthony, I'm a tech writer for Confluence Server and Data Center. Sorry for the unexpected walk down memory lane! The problem you experienced is related to the way we organise our Confluence docs in Confluence itself. We have a single 'latest' Confluence space, that contains the documentation for the current version,…
  • Hi Linda, Yes, up to 5 emails will be sent for each request to access. When we previously sent a single email, there was a high chance that the request wouldn't be actioned (someone is on leave, or doesn't always check their email notifications). As far as I'm aware, there are no plans to make this feature configurable on…
  • Sorry, that workaround won't work - as Space Admins are always able to restrict and remove restrictions / grant access (regardless of whether they've explicitly been given the Restrict permission). The only workaround I can think of is to actually grant more people Restrict permission, so that the pool of non-admins that…
  • Hi Chad, Thanks for letting us know, I can see how this would be problematic. I'll raise it with the dev team. We had hoped that in most cases, the request would be sent to someone who has been interacting with the page itself, but sounds like in your case that few people have the 'Restrict' space permission? 
  • Hi everyone, A quick note to let you know that in Confluence 6.8 we've improved how request access works under the hood. When a user requests access to a restricted page, Confluence will send an email to up to 5 people. It chooses people in the following order: * people who have contributed to the page in the past, can see…

  • There were changes to email notifications in Confluence 5.2. Soy (also known as Closure) templates are now used instead of Velocity templates. I have updated the documentation on how to edit the email notification templates, however I need to stress that editing these files is not supported, and we strongly recommend that…

  • Raising a support request at support.atlassian.comis the best way to get a problem like this resolved. Something is not right in your instance and they'll be able to help you troubleshoot what is going on, and raise any bugs if necessary.
  • Hi Frode, Sorry, the questions list macro is not available in OnDemand just yet. It should be available in the next few weeks. You can find the documentation for Questions in OnDemand here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AOD/Integrating+Questions+with+your+spaces Keep an eye on the OnDemand What's New page also,…
  • Hi guys, I am so, so sorry for today's spam (and last week's spam). I promise it will be the last. Essentially that page had a lot of very old attachments, and the way we were updating it fired a flood of notifications. This morning I removed all the old attachments - so the page is now attachment free (I'd not been able…
  • Hi Bruce, I'm not familiar with timesheets in Confluence - I'm guessing this is an add-on? If checking the user's group memberships as Nic has suggested above doesn't resolve your issue, I'd recommend talking to your add-on vendor. Sorry I can't help more. 
  • Never fear, Confluence 6.0 (with all its collaborative editing goodness) is still on the way. In the meantime we wanted to make sure we made some of the great new features that are already available in Confluence Cloud available to Confluence Server customers too - especially ones that we know Server customers will really…
  • Hi Felix, thanks for raising this. I've fixed up the incorrect reference on the SQL page, and am double checking the docs for all the other DBs. Sorry for the confusing information. 
  • Ah, unfortunately the macro doesn't allow you to define multiple columns to sort by - just one.
  • Hi Alabaue, I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to sort, or the problem you're experiencing in your macro - but there are a few things to consider. There are two ways to sort columns in the Page Properties Report macro. You can define a column to sort by (in the macro's Sort by field), and sort this ascending or…
  • Hi Michael, Sorry to hear you got off to a bumpy start with Questions. Our documentation site was down for an hour this afternoon for some urgent maintenance. It is back up now and you can get to the Get Started docs here https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/QUESTIONS/Get+Started Confluence Questions should…
