Macros not working on Personal Space

Alex Andrien January 25, 2023

I want to make meeting notes in my personal space, and have the 'task report' & 'decision report' macros report macros summarize what has been put inside the meeting notes. These macros work fine everywhere, except on my personal space, where they list nothing.

Below a test child page I created, having 1 action item and 1 decision.

Then in the same space I create a page, containing the task report and decision report macros.

Here are the settings used for the Task Report. It says 'Current space', but why doesn't it show 'Action item 1'?

Here are the settings for the Decision Report:

Anyone have an idea how to get this working? Very frustrating to be honest.

It turns out that my personal space's status was set to 'Archived'. After changing this to 'Current', the macros worked again and I can also see my personal space appearing in the suggestions, which wasn't the case before.

For future reference, you can edit this in the Space Details of the space and switch the status from Archived to Current, see below.

@Alex Andrien Welcome to the Atlassian community!

Can you also post a screenshot of how you have the action items and decisions listed on the page you are trying to pull the report from so I can attempt to assist?

Thanks.

Apologies, something went wrong with the first screenshot, I've added it now!

Have you tried putting in the actual space name rather than selecting <current space>?

One thing which comes to my mind as a possible cause:  The pages were created very recently, and Confluence has not yet indexed them.  Sometimes this issue resolves after a short while.

Thanks for the reply!

I don't think this is the issue, I just made these as an example but I've had the same on other pages on my personal space. These test pages also are not showing the macros, and I would hope the indexing doesn't take hours.
