Does data center version uses binary package of confluence on-prem or confluence cloud?
Asked by Roli Tripathi:

I am building an application/plugin for confluence Datacenter

This plugin will expose the required endpoint to fetch space level ACLs Plugin will be hosted on Atlassian marketplace

I need to know weather data center version uses binary package of confluence on-prem or confluence cloud


Answers:
author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: The question is a bit hard to follow, but if you develop an app for Confluence Data Center, then the answer is that Confluence Data Center is a self-hosted variant. It means that someone who wants to use it must download the installer and install it to his own server computer or infrastructure.

But, it is, of course, possible to install it to a virtual infrastructure like Amazon AWS EC2 instances.

So it is the "binary package".

comments: author: Roli Tripathi
body: Thanks for your reply Aron, let me explain little more.

In the context of Confluence, a binary package refers to the pre-compiled software package that can be downloaded and installed on a computer system to run Confluence.

I am developing plugin for Data center version, I need to clarify if what binary package Confluence Data Center uses, confluence on-prem or confluence cloud?


author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: Confluence Data Center == Confluence on-prem.

(Confluence Cloud is not a downloadable package.)

Imported Word into Confluence shows Image but not when using Scroll Document
Asked by Rory Dalzell:

I have imported a Word document into Confluence, shows images but when I generate a Scroll Document using the Document Toolbox only the image markers is showing

![2023-04-12_16-45-24.jpg](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/251180iF5070FE8137AC1DF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "2023-04-12_16-45-24.jpg")

The wording above the icon is from my imported document

What do I need to do to see the image - is it because the Scroll Document is in the Progress (State)

I'm from K15t, the vendor behind Scroll Documents. If you reach out to our app support we could take a closer look at this. You can send an email to: help@k15t.com

If you are telling us that you can view the images without a problem on your confluence page, but when you try to export the page using a 3rd party app, the image brakes, then I believe that you:

* Should either search for an option when exporting the page OR
* Contact the vendor's support for help

I am trying to get the breakdown of pages by space using the Confluence Cloud REST API iteratively
Asked by Cami:

I want the breakdown of pages in a space for all spaces in an instance. There is an API call that requires a specific space key to be hard coded but I want to achieve this for all spaces. <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v2/api-group-page/#api-spaces-id-pages-get>

I believe I need to make a general space API call then parse those results for space keys which will then be used to make the specific calls but I was hoping for some advice on how to achieve this as I am still very new to Forge.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Cami](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5076208) does it have to be in Forge or can you use other programing languages?

Remove users
Asked by Upscale Carbon:

How do I delete users to make room for two new team members. We'll organise a licence to increase users in the coming weeks but just for a quick turnaround.

Also, because there is a limit on user is this way, they can't view our pages.

Thanking you


Answers:
author: Velizar Borisov
body: Hello and welcome to the community!

Deleting a user should be avoided for many reasons. In most of the cases when you delete an user the places, where it was added (e.g. creator of a page) it will appear just as "Deleted user". When you have several deleted users it would be quite difficult for you to track who is the exact deleted user. Instead of deleting you can consider disabling the user, which will also help you save from licenses. You can check this [article](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/delete-or-disable-users-138318.html) and see the differences.

On your other topic, in Confluence there's a possibility to expose the whole space to be visible for users without an account, which will eventually save you some more licenses. You can check how to do this [here](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/set-up-public-access/).

Hope that helps!

Nesting Tables within Expands, and Expand Macros within Table Cells
Asked by Elliot Campbell:

It'd be useful for page organization to be able to to nest multiple levels of tables and Expand Macros within eachother.

i.e. Expand \> Table \> Expand within a Cell of that table.

This would allow to collapse and expand multiple levels of information which all rollup into a larger expand.

At the very least it would be useful to nest a numbered /bulleted list within an Expand in a Table.


Answers:
author: Katerina Rudkovskaya [Stiltsoft]
body: Hi [@Elliot Campbell](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4829975),  

The new Cloud editor doesn't allow such nesting. So, you may browse the Atlassian Marketplace and search for apps that will enhance your experience with big tables and loads of data.  

For example, our company develops the [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) app. You may use its [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-table-filter-macro-42239756.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro to freeze first N rows/columns, set pagination and hide specific columns. Thus, your big tables will be easier to read.  

Or you may switch from native Confluence tables to Excel-like tables and use the [Table Spreadsheet](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-table-spreadsheet-macro-83100938.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro. This solution also looks rather neat and provides many additional opportunities.

body: Hi [@Elliot Campbell](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5193488) !

Welcome to the Community!

Your need is interesting. For what use cases would you need information to be collapsed apart from bulleted lists?

Is the intention to avoid information cluttering?

Best regards,


author: Rodrigo
body: Hello [@Elliot Campbell](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5193488) and welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I agree with you, there are some benefits to certain combinations, but it could also be a dangerous path if the users rely heavily on these combinations and end up creating pages that take 20s each to load due to the different macro combinations ?

There are some issues where we can show our interest in these features. Are you already voting on them? Out of the back of my head, I can immediately point to this one, but there are more around :)

Bordered gray box appearing around each line item in my Decision log built in a tabs container
Asked by Hillary Moore:

In the last week bordered gray boxes have appeared around text populating fields in our team decision log. I've reviewed the history of the page to determine if an intentional change was made to the formatting, but nothing turned up. Does anyone know why some of the decision fields are now in a gray box? Does anyone know how I can remove them? I've attached a couple of screenshots to illustrate the issue and desired state.

How do I create a simple list of links to pages in my space?
Asked by Kevin Aegis:

I have a space where I record notes (The "Notes" Space).

There are a lot of individual Notes pages that are children in the space. However, the main page in the space is just empty, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get to a list of links to all the various notes I've created.

When I searched online, the advice was to use the "page hierarchy" function in the menu that comes up when you click on the three dots, however.... I'm not seeing that, and searching "help" for "hierarchy" in confluence returns nothing useful.

Right now the only way I'm able to access these various subpages is through the "recent changes" menu, and then I'm copy-pasting links into the top level page. This is incredibly tedious, and I'm sure I'm missing links that are not appearing in the list.

There must be a simple way to just create a page full of links of children in a space.


Answers:
author: Andy Gladstone
body: [@Kevin Aegis](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5193500) welcome to the Atlassian Community.

On the parent page insert the page tree macro and it will render a list of links to all of the child pages (the notes).   

Put the page in edit mode and either select the page tree macro from the (+) sign on the menu bar or type /page tree in the body of the page.   

I hope this helps!

author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Kevin Aegis](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5193500) Welcome to the Atlassian community

You can use any of the [navigation macros](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/use-macros-to-add-navigation-on-confluence-pages/) to accomplish this. I would suggest using the page tree macro. As you add additional notes they will automatically be added to the page. You can learn more about the macro, how to add it and configure it here: <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-page-tree-macro/>

comments: author: Kevin Aegis
body: Thank you for this. The link to the support page for the macro was really helpful here - definitely not straightforward!


author: Kevin Aegis
body: oops

comments: author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: The page tree is quite handy, but I still prefer a landing page with loads of navigation on it! Brant and Andy have got you there :-)


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: What do you have in the left-hand column? Is there no "pages" entry near the bottom?

(This would not solve "blank main page" by the way, but the pages entry is a page tree. I tend to use the main page for other ways of organising links for people to explore - label, contributor and recently updated for example)

How to Embed Linked Jira Issues into Confluence page
Asked by Kyle Hikalea:

I'm attempting to embed a list of Jira issues that are related to a Confluence article but can't seem to find the correct part.

Natively, the related issues are linked at the top of the Confluence article and can be accessed using this button:

![jiralink1.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/251130iA44AE7BA21E514AE/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "jiralink1.png")

However, when I try and add this issue list directly to the body of the page, I can't seem to find the JQL expression that would accomplish this:

![jiralink2.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/251133i46ABACF2E9C6D6F2/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "jiralink2.png")


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Kyle Hikalea](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5193346) Welcome to the Atlassian community

When using the Jira Issue Macro this will place a list of issues on the Confluence page by embedding a JQL filter or saved filter results on a page. More information here: <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-jira-issues-macro/>

If you are trying to link specific issues to a Confluence page you can do it in Jira on the issue by selecting the little down arrow by link issue and selecting Link Confluence page.

author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Kyle Hikalea](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5193346) If you have an app like script runner you can create a JQL query that will display only the issues associated with that page. Otherwise, you would have to past the link of each issue on the page.

Task Lists not visable after being migrated from Confluence Server to Cloud
Asked by Infrastructure:

We are testing migrating Confluence Server spaces to the Confluence Cloud. We found that Task Lists are not being migrated. It shows as:

Looking good, no incomplete tasks.

There are pages of tasks that are missing.


Answers:
author: Infrastructure
body: I was able to resolve this on my own.

Basically, recreate the action items on Cloud post migration. They will start showing up in the task report.

May have to do with users showing up as "unlicensed user" post migration in pages.

Steps to Fix:

* Recreate the action item using \[ \] in the legacy editor.
  * Use / action for the Fabric Editor.
* Re-add the user to the action item.

The Task Report will start to populate.

Found another solution that worked perfectly.

You take a copy of the page where the tasks were before. And lord and behold Confluence picks up all the previous tasks on that page. Guess that when you take a copy of a page and put it in the same space, Confluence Cloud rechecks and reindexes and the tasks reappear :-)

Kind regards,

Is there a way to create an eBook from Confluence Data Center? (DC)
Asked by Rob Horan:

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a way to create an eBook from a page structure (parent page and all children, ideally in a custom order)

I found only one marketplace app that will allow for this, but it is server-only.

[https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/44371/scroll-epub-exporter-for-confluence?tab=overview\&hosting=server](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/44371/scroll-epub-exporter-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=server)

Answers:
author: Rodrigo
body: Hello [@Rob Horan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/853604) and goood morning!

Interesting situation, out of the back of my head I could think of using K15t [Scroll PDF Exporter](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/7019/scroll-pdf-exporter-for-confluence?hosting=datacenter&tab=overview) to generate and customize the look of the end product (and simplify the export process) and then head to Calibre to convert it into an eBook ?

Not sure what would be the result of that process but perhaps modifying the margins using Scroll Exporter could influence the end product if everything seems out of place :o

Best regards

comments: author: Rob Horan
body: Hi [@Rodrigo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4988097) ,

Thanks - yeah, my solution wound up being essentially an export to Word and then using Calibre to create an ePub. One problem I am running into now is the file size is HUGE. BUT its a 'free' option since we have the tools.


author: Rodrigo
body: Hello [@Rob Horan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/853604),

Glad to hear you found part of the solution!

I was surprised to hear about the file size, as I tested exports in the past, and everything was okay (filesize-wise), and it turns out there is a limitation regarding filesize if there are images involved according to this [question](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Export-of-space-to-PDF-has-grown-substantially/qaq-p/1526296) here, with the suggestion to compress the file afterwards ?

They recommend using the online tool [Compress-pdf](https://smallpdf.com/compress-pdf) (works with Word), but due to data privacy, I imagine it's better to use Acrobat Reader or any local solutions.
