How do you create a sub-task to an epic in JIRA directly from a Confluence page?

[Joakim Jonsson]

I am creating a Confluence page for improvement suggestions for our software. And I want to be able to create JIRA sub-tasks linked for a specific epic. How it is now when you use the "highlight"-feature, the issue is created on the project. Is this possible?

And a follow up question: is it possible to have same sort link choice when creating an issue in JIRA as for epic, but for a Confluence page as well?

I managed to do it. This article fails to mention you have to, not only link the Epic to the page, but also paste the JIRA url link in the editor before the checkbox appears.
