I suppose, I have found the right way to make an anchor link in a new Confluence Cloud!

You don't need any macro at all just point your mouse to one of your headings (h1-h6) and the widget which copies the link to this heading will appear

Hi @JoMi 

Please refer to the doc here

https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-links-and-anchors/

Here's a gist, let me know if you have any queries

Thanks, but I have already wrote that this way: using anchor macro doesn't work any more! All 3 links that you provided should be updated because they doesn't contain actual information on the topic. I found the way an anchor link could be added and published the actual method herehttps://community.atlassian.com/t5/Welcome-Center-questions/Re-Anchor-links-in-Confluence/qaq-p/1927912/comment-id/211#M211

No, it does actually!!

Here's a quick example 

This is bottom of the page

This is at the top

When you click on the Top link, it will take you to the Anchor place

Have you seen this screenshot? I suppose that you have made your account together with your Confluence page very far ago and due to this fact, it may not be updated to the latest version... (some dependencies, additional pluggins from the Market, etc.) And I use the just installed and clean of any additional apps one.  Of course, I am not sure and it's only my personal opinion based on 2 facts:

1. I haven't found this macro among macros available to me!

2. The official documentation says this macro is not longer available!

Hi @JoMi 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

I believe you have already explored the anchor's usage. This helpful Atlassian insert the anchor macro document and the related sections should guide you.
