Using the macros provided by this add-on, you can create a custom release notes page that pulls issue data straight from JIRA. 

In addition to the basic text formatting tools(e.g., bold, headers, table, lists), the following example uses additional macros to make the page more dynamic.

Macros Used

  • Jira-Confluence Issue Macro - This macro is provided by our add-on. It specifies which server to pull data from and which issues to display. Below are the parameter values for the macro.
    • JIRA Server: Your Company JIRA
    • Query: "fixVersion = 1.1.2"

    • Fields: [Key, Summary, Assigness, Status, Resolution, Description]
  • Expand Macro - This macro is included in Confluence by default. This example uses this macro to hide and display the specific issue details.
  • Section Macro - This macro is included in Confluence by default. In this example, the macro is used to enable us to use the Column Macro to split the Issue Details section into columns.
