Link a ticket to several areas of a page with ease

[JerryD]

I need to link a page to a Jira ticket. My page is very long, and the ticket impacts several locations on that page. I want the developer to be able to click once on the Jira ticket and easily see the several impacted areas of the confluence page.

I would like to make the edits only on the page OR in the ticket, not in both.

Hi Jerry - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You might try putting the link for the Jira ticket into your Confluence page in the areas where there is impact. And then if nothing else, your developers could search on the page for the Jira issue.

OK, thanks.

So you mean manually paste the ticket URL right?

Will it appear automatically in the ticket, or do I need to mark it there somehow?

[John Funk]

Yes to manually linking issue in the page. And you need to link the Confluence page in the Project Pages  of the Jira Project. You will need to be a Project Administrator to be able to do that.

Hello @JerryD 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

What type of page are you referencing? Is it a page in a Confluence instance?

[JerryD]

Yes, a a Confluence instance.

Hi @JerryD ,

I would also like to point out a short University course that covers 'connecting' Jira and Confluence as well as adding links to Confluence pages in Jira issues: Collaborate effectively with Jira and Confluence together 

It's quite intuitive to follow and might be a good reference to help you out on this.

Cheers,
Tom
