Insert JIRA Project Backlog into Confluence Page

Christian Beckenkamp September 5, 2017

Hello all

I would like to create a new page in Confluence, with a live-updated version of a JIRA Project Backlog. This is to increase the overall transparency behind what is being developed in our IT department, and a “What-is-next” overview.

Normally I would simply use a “Insert JIRA Issue/Filter”-macro, which would be fine. My problem comes from wanting to insert the backlog from a board that includes several other projects.  

As an example:

We have 4 projects

   Project A has board A
   Project B has board B, but has its issues shown in board A as well.
   Project C has board C, but has its issues shown in board A as well.
   Project D has board D, but has its issues shown in board A as well.

We currently use board A as our main board, with all current projects in it.

We have then positioned its backlog to reflect a “What-is-next” overview.

Would it be possible to create a Confluence page that reflects board A’s backlog, with all the different projects, and positions them correctly?

Hi Christian

When you say you've positioned the backlog, do you mean ordered (ranked / prioritised)?

So what happens if you set up a Confluence page with the filter being the same as the filter used for board A? I would have thought that's exactly what you want. What is wrong with it?
