You can now create Jira issues and Confluence pages directly from Confluence pages and comments

TL;DR: We have added the ability to create Jira issues and Confluence pages to the slash menu in the Confluence editor. You can type “/create Jira issues” or “/create Confluence page” and select on the options in the menu to open an inline creation experience.

Hey everyone!

Over the next few weeks you should see an upgrade to your Confluence editor. You’ll be able to create Jira issues and Confluence pages inline without having to switch context to do so. We’ve looked at customer feedback and what our users were already doing and wanted to make it easier to create and link Jira issues as well as Confluence pages.

Create from the slash menu in the editor

Slash commands you can use to create new Jira issues:

  • /issue

  • /create Jira issues

  • /Jira

Slash commands you can use to create new Confluence pages:

  • /page

  • /create Confluence page

  • /Confluence

  • You can create and edit the page later or select Create + Open to go straight to an embedded Editor to fill in content before publishing the page.

  • After you create the Confluence page, a Smart Link will be inserted into Confluence with the newly created page.

Our creation experiences will continue to evolve, informed by your valuable feedback. Please let us know your thoughts in the thread below!
