I'm using Confluence Cloud

I have a Confluence Automation task that creates a new Status Report page (based on a template) on a Schedule (once every 2 weeks). 

I also have it send out an email to 4 people when the page is created, so we know to go review the report and update it. All that works great!

My question is, how to put a LINK to that page in the email. I assume I need to use a SmartValue, but the one I found doesn't put in a link. It just puts in the title and it is not. 

Please review and update the AID Weekly Status report on the newly created page. 
{{page.title}}

Does anybody know the smart value to make that a link?  

The only resource I can find is the Jira Automation smart values pages, and they don't seem to include that. 

Thanks

Hallo Kathy,

I had exactly the same problem and I solved it using the SmartValue {{page.url}}

Hey! 

 

Am new to Confluence too! Can I know how to generate reports? TBH, anything on reporting capabilities of Conf will be a help for me.

Hi Kathy,

So my first question is if this is related to early access to confluence cloud automation? The reason I ask is that without this I'm unsure how you're creating a Confluence page unless it's somehow related to a Jira issue. If you could and light me on this I might have some further ideas. One thing I'm wondering is if it is possible to automatically add watchers to the new page or not.
