Hi!

     We have a huge database move project with around 10 teams working in its tracks and updating JIRA and Confluence with their registers.

     For Confluence I'd like to copy all those pages to a single page (HUB) and automatically receive all updates they make in their pages into this HUB?

     Is it possible?

     If yes, hoe please?

Hi @Nelson Loia Jr_ 

Unless you dig deep into the API underworld, probably not.

You can, however, use excerpts and excerpts include macros (page include). Basically, each team writes in their own page that has Excrept macro over the entire page. You hub page includes multiple excerpt include (page include) that suck in the conetnt from the orignal excrepts/pages. 

Alternative (which I'd prefer)

You can sync pages from multiple Confluence spaces into a single one.

In this scenario, each team has its own space and sends (syncs) the content to the HUB space.

Check Space Sync for Confluence.

Hi !

     THX for the sharing  @Kristian Klima !

     Unfortunately I have no budget for payed APPs.

     I also seek for excerpts APPs and all have fees.....

     For now, I'm doing it manually.

 

Best regards.

Excerpt and include macros are included with Confluence.

Hi!

I found the  "1 - Excerpt Macro"  and the  "2 - Excerpt Include Macro"  tools in Confluence but....

This do not allow me to capture the entire existent page or a snippet of it.
I can only create a new snippet insert in the page and share only this new chunk.

Is there a way to active capture all updates from the entire page and put it in another page

In other words: I need to create a central hub from several team pages spread amongst the Confluence.

How to?
