Is it possible to create a confluence page for every new Jira Story Created?

Ronan Hayes October 10, 2012

Hi All

I was wondering is it possible to have a new Confluence Page created every time I create a Story? The page would initially contain the details of the story so it could be fleshed out in more detail there.

There's no way to do it automatically from within onDemand Jira. if you ran your own instance, you could develop a plugin that had a listener that watched for user Story creations & used the Confluence API to automatically create a page.

Theoretically, you could use the remote API to do a periodic search for new issues which was ran by a small program you would write & host yourself somewhere. It could then use the Confluence API to create a page.

or (and I would recommend) you could turn your process upside down and create the user Story in Confluence first and use Confluence to create the issue in Jira, automatically linking it

if you really want to dig deeper and force it to go Jira to Confluence, try this
