User Macro and Properties Report

[Couleur_Connection]

I try to use the User Macro given in this question : https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/Get-incoming-links-with-in-a-user-macro/qaq-p/538128

It works fine on the page but if I put the macro in a [Page Property] macro, the links are not visible on the page properties report.

I modify the code to display the content of $incLinks variable : it contains links on the page (even inside Page Property macro) but it's empty in the page properties index.

Anyone has an idea ?

Thanks !

This is one I wrote a couple years ago. I works for me with page properties and the report macro.

Macro Name:
referring_content

Macro Title:
Referring Content

Macro Body Processing:
No macro body

Template:

#set($containerManagerClass=$content.class.forName('com.atlassian.spring.container.ContainerManager'))
#set($getInstanceMethod=$containerManagerClass.getDeclaredMethod('getInstance',null))
#set($containerManager=$getInstanceMethod.invoke(null,null))
#set($containerContext=$containerManager.containerContext)
#set($linkManager=$containerContext.getComponent('linkManager'))

#set($pages = $linkManager.getReferringContent($content))

#if($pages.size() > 0)
<ul class="referring-content-links">
#foreach($page in $pages)
    #if (!$page.isDeleted())
    <li><a href="$page.getUrlPath()">$page.getTitle()</a></li>
    #end
#end
</ul>
#end

Thanks for this quick answer. It works perfectly !

Here is a user macro solution to get incoming links based on the page property reports - where you can show the metadata that has been identified from the source page on the destination page of a link. It is a little hacky as it relies on matching the page title with the contents of the source page:

This could be enhanced by adding parameters to identify the labels, but I haven't tested that yet.

## Macro title: Incoming link with page properties
## Macro has a body: Y
## Body processing: Rendered
## Output: A list of incoming pages including the identified page properties from the source pages

 Just wanted to share this as I have often used solutions from within this forum. Hope it will be useful for others!
