Is it possible to have trello automatically send an email when a task is assigned to a team member?
Asked by Trading:

I'm trying to get started with a trello for my team. Right now we have a free version and I'm trying to understand what are the Abilities it has before we start talking about upgrading to business class.  

I looked around in the documentation but could not find any answer to this query. Is it possible that when a team member assigns a trello card to another team member, then the latter automatically gets an email or some sort of a notification that the task has been assigned to her?

Or is there any other way that if a member has got some card assigned to her, she get some kind of notification without having to login and keep on checking whether she has been assigned some cards?

<br />

If it is not possible in the free version, is it possible to do that in the business class version?  

Thank you for any inputs

body: Hi Trading

There are certain notifications that are sent to a user based upon whether they are watching a board, a list, or a specific card. However, if they are not watching those, then there are also some notifications that are triggered always.

You can find the full list at <https://help.trello.com/article/793-receiving-trello-notifications>

One of the 'always' notifications are when being added to a board or assigned to a card. This will trigger a notification in the notification center on the Trello board, and an email is triggered based off of unread notifications and the email settings. See the Notification Emails and Preference portion of the same document.

comments: author: Trading
body: Thank you for the response. And thanks a lot for the link also. I'm marking the answer is resolved.


author: Rob Williams
body: When board members are assigned to a card they will automatically receive an email notification. These notifications are sent out at different times according to the settings of each user.
Notification Segregation
Asked by Tony Sansico:

Is there a way to limit the notifications to one or several boards?

I'm involved in multiple boards (10) but there are 3 boards where I want to receive email notifications, can I do that? How?

Thanks!!


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hi Tony

There are some notifications that you will **always** receive, and some that are opt-in. Check out [this article](https://help.trello.com/article/793-receiving-trello-notifications) that explains the notifications.

If you have questions about it, feel free to reply back.

comments: author: Tony Sansico
body: Thank you Matthew, I found my answer in the link you shared with me.

It would be a great improvement, and will help us increase user adoption by having the possibility to fine-custom notifications board by board. There are some boards that are more important where we need to get instant notification, and others where we don't need them or less frequently.

I'm having the president and VPs trying to use them, but they can't afford to receive 30 emails a day, nor they can't afford to miss an important one, when they get mentionned for example...


author: Matthew N
body: You can use Zapier to fine tune some of those notifications (but you still can't stop the ones that will always be sent). Check <https://zapier.com/apps/email/integrations/trello/131/email-notification-for-any-trello-activity-on-a-board-or-list>


author: Tony Sansico
body: Thank you Matthew. But Trello is a plug and play product. Hope they will consider this idea.
Restrict IP address who can access trello services
Asked by ??:

We are planning to use trello enterprise and I want it should be accessbile to specific IP address or IP address range only. Do we have that option with IP access control list?


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hello

With Trello Enterprise, you can restrict who can be added to your Trello teams by email domain, or even individual email address, but it's not possible to lock down to only be accessible via a specific IP address to the best of my knowledge.

For Enterprise inquiries, it would be best to reach out to the sales team by submitting the form at <https://trello.com/enterprise> or contacting them using the number provided at the same web address.

Admin rights give you admin, not "do everything" (which is a terrible terrible security model). You'll need to look at your rights within the project. As an admin, you'll be able to change them.

How to create a dropdown list containing my users in a template ?
Asked by Rapha?l NORYNBERG:

Hi everyone,

I want to create a dropdown list/menu/button in my template, with wich we can select a user from any user-list already existing in Confluence.

Thanks in advance for those who have the answer :-)


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hi Rapha?l,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to have you!

Confluence doesn't have this feature, but I know ServiceRocket included that feature in their [Scaffolding Forms and Templates](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/190/scaffolding-forms-templates?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) add-on:

* [Adding a dropdown list of users](https://docs.servicerocket.com/scaffolding-cloud/user-guide/adding-a-dropdown-list-of-users)

You can go ahead and give that a try if it's something you're interested in, and if you have any questions about the add-on, please let me know.

Take care,

Shannon

comments: author: Rapha?l NORYNBERG
body: Hi Shannon,

Thank you, for your answer !

I'm actually looking for a "free" solution, and it seems that this add-on is not free, right ? Or is it included if I go "Standard" ?

Thank you in advance for your answer,


author: Shannon S
body: Hi Rapha?l,

That's correct; it is a paid add-on. The pricing details are available [on the pricing tab](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/190/scaffolding-forms-templates?hosting=cloud&tab=pricing) of the listing. It is a 3rd party add-on, and so it's not included with Confluence Standard.

I am not aware of any free add-ons that do this, but you can look on Marketplace and [filter by free add-ons](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&moreFilters=free&product=confluence).

I hope that helps!

Take care,

Shannon

Configuring jira issue macro in confluence
Asked by sever6159:

Hello!

Is it possible to set it up confluense somehow so that when a jira issue hyperlink is inserted, it will automatically turn into a Jira Issues macro? Is there any plugin for that?

Confluence version 5.10.9 (6441)

UPD. We have Jira DataCenter 8.4.1 and Confluence 5.10.9. Have installed another clean instance of Confluence 7.4.8 and linked it with our Jira instance for test and autoconversion is working! Have installed another clean instance of Confluence 5.10.9 and linked it with our Jira instance - autoconversion is NOT working... What may cause that misconfiguration?

Support period of our lisence is over, is there any way to fix this issue without upgrading Confluence?

body: Hello, [@sever6159](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4342510) !

Welcome to the Community!

P.S. I'm trying to find from what version this feature was released.


author: sever6159
body: Hi, Alexander! Thnx for your answer.

Why you don't want to update your Confluence? - I'm figuring it out. :) May be there're license restriction issues.

I'm trying to find from what version this feature was released. - It would be great! Thanks


author: Alexander Bondarev
body: Hi, [@sever6159](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4342510) !

It is really strange, because I found an article [Display Jira Issues in Confluence](https://www.atlassian.com/blog/confluence/display-jira-issues-in-confluence-more-power-more-control) from December 2016, where talking about this feature:
>
> ### Copy, paste, done. {#toc-hId-1230245213}
>
> The quickest way to insert Jira issues in pages is using the magic that is autoconvert:
>
> 1. Paste the URL of an issue into the Confluence editor; or
> 2. Paste the URL of a Jira filter into the Confluence editor
>
> and voila! It's that simple.

After that I checked [the release notes of Confluence 5.10.9](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-5-10-9-release-notes-940119711.html) from November 2017.

So it looks like that you need some troubleshoting of your instance, because you already have this feature.

"inherited view restrictions" - always supersede individual page permissions?
Asked by Alex Gerulaitis:

Do "inherited view restrictions" for a Confluence (on-prem Data Center v.7.4.4) - have precedence over individual page permissions?

![Confluence page permissions - Screen Shot 2021-04-08 at 1.56.55 PM.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/138021i64A8D47633285CEB/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Confluence page permissions - Screen Shot 2021-04-08 at 1.56.55 PM.png")

I.e. no way to grant a specific user read access to just one page in an otherwise restricted (no read access to anyone except certain groups and users) space?

Context: we have a restricted space within an enterprise with no read access to anyone except certain groups. We'd like to give read access to **just one page** within that space to a specific user.

Adding that user to that specific page and giving them read access - lists that user as having view access - yet the user reports "404 page not found", and is not listed among "people who can view".

To reiterate the really confusing parts in this:

* A user **is listed** as **having read access** in page permissions - yet **has no access** due to inherited permissions; there is no straightforward indication of it in the UI: nothing like "while this user is listed it as having access, this is superseded by inherited permissions and thus has no effect". One has to go to "People who can view this page" (a separate UI element), to view effective permissions.
* I don't see any mention of inherited permissions always having precedence over individual page permissions in "[Understanding Permission in Confluence](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/understanding-permission-in-confluence-979403839.html)". Shouldn't it be there in big bold letters?

Thanks!

P.S. Apologies if this has been asked a gazillion times.

Migrating content from multiple spaces into one space
Asked by Eric Dec:

I'm working on a project to migrate content from several spaces into one space with a more intuitive content structure. Does anyone have best practices they can share for moving content within Confluence?


Answers:
author: Sharon Helms
body: Hi [@Eric Dec](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4327899) ,

I found this article [Easy ways to move, delete, copy and pages in Confluence](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Easy-ways-to-move-delete-copy-and-pages-in-Confluence/ba-p/1630140) to be really helpful, including the feature that allows you to move child pages along with a parent and maintain your structure. That new feature might not be rolled out to you yet -- it's new.

In general, I've found it helpful to consider the common topics for all of your content, and create parent pages to collect those related articles. (Basically, create an information architecture.) You might tinker around with the perfect names for those topics, but starting with 5 to 7 placeholders could be helpful.

Once you have all of the content in the same space, Confluence lets you drag and drop in the left-hand sidebar to move your articles around as needed.

I hope this helps you get started! Best wishes, Sharon

Re-attach SmartDraw diagram to page
Asked by J Fincher:

I opened an existing SmartDraw diagram on a page, edited the diagram, then saved it as a new diagram (Save as New Diagram). I then closed SmartDraw.

The new diagram was displayed on the page, as expected.

However, I want both diagrams (the original and the copy) on the page. I can't figure out how to get the original diagram back on the page. The files are in the attachments list, but I can't get at them from the page.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@J Fincher](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/439785) I believe that you will just need to add another smart draw confluence macro to the page and select the diagram from there.

comments: author: J Fincher
body: I tried that. When I select the smart draw macro again, it opens smart draw as for a new diagram. I don't see any option to open or import the original diagram. There is an import option there, but it's to import external files. I tried downloading my original diagram files, then import them back in using that function, and that did not work either.

"add permission" to submit form
Asked by Kathy Barton:

I created my first form with Forms for Confluence Cloud today and ran into a maddening problem. Everyone is getting an error saying "You must have add permission on the space to submit the form" when they try to submit the form, including me. I have full site and space admin permissions so I'm guessing this elusive "add permission" is somewhere else but for the life of me, I can't find it. Does anyone know where I need to set that?

FYI I do have a support request in with Adaptavist but I'd really like to get this resolved ASAP.

TIA!


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: My understanding (bear in mind I don't work in the Product team) is that your people who are hitting this problem do not have the Confluence Space Permission to create/edit pages. The form gets saved as a page, so you need create/edit to save it.

comments: author: Kathy Barton
body: Thanks Nic, but that's not the problem. Everyone who has hit this error is an active user (creating and editing).

Can Questions from nav bar be sent to individual Space Questions with Tags or ?
Asked by Carol Asci:

We have multiple spaces using Questions right now and it's challenging to search across them. We'd like to start using the Questions repository on the Nav bar as the starting point, and then use Tags to direct the questions to the proper team's space (Reporting, Integrations, Configuration, etc.) - is this possible?


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Carol Asci](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4341170) When you ask a question from the main link at the top and you end up creating a new one it will ask what space it should be created in. I would suggest using that unless you are trying to have them ask globally. If that is the case then you could use topics to tag the questions. Then your experts or team members could watch that topic to get notified of new questions.
