This page describes how to use our Confluence Blueprint to get you quickly started in pulling JIRA Issue data using the Jira-Confluence Issue Macros.

If you migrated your Confluence instance from OnDemand and are running into problems with removing old Application Links, please follow the directions on How to Manually Remove Application Links.

Prerequisites

  • The Jira-Confluence Issue Macro Plugin is installed in Confluence with a valid license.
  • Confluence is linked to at least one JIRA Server.

Using the Jira-Confluence Issue(s) Report Blueprint

The Jira-Confluence Issue(s) Report Blueprint generates a page containing a simple report of one or more JIRA issues using the Jira-Confluence Issue Macro and Jira-Confluence Issue Field Macro.

The Blueprint template can be found in the Create dialogue box when creating a new page.

When you select the Jira Issues Report and click Next, you will be presented with a dialogue box that allows you to select the Application Link and enter a Query.

The Issue Query can be an Issue Key, Filter ID, or JQL Query.

When you click Create, a new page will be created and auto-populated with a default template that uses the Jira-Confluence Issue Macros to generate a simple report that can be modified if necessary to get additional system fields and custom fields.

The default generated template displays a few system fields from an issue(key, summary, status, description,etc). It also lists any linked issues and subtasks linked to it.
