Include Page Property field in an Ad Hoc List?

Paul LaBarbera June 24, 2014

Hi there,

Is there any way an Ad Hoc list can display information from a page properties report?

Workflow:

Client user creates a page (from template) with a page properties report.

Admin internal user views these pages in an Ad Hoc list (filtered by label). We need ad hoc list functionality to track progress on the page, but we wnat to display a page property field in the Ad Hoc list. Is that possible? I imagine the wiki mark-up option may do it.

Yes, you can. In Confluence Admin tell Ad hoc Canvas to use Metadata Storage > Tabular. This lets it access Page Properties.

Bear in mind that this applies to all uses of Lists and that all lists become read-only.

Thanks!

So... making lists read-only kind of stinks. There's no way to change text values if this is enabled?

Correct, there is no way.

And there is presently no way to have "use Tabular" apply to just one list.

That said, the team has now made note of your request.
