Confiforms - How to have a Dynamic Multi-select Webservice
Asked by Franck HOCHSTAETTER:

Hello,  

I'm currently testing confiforms ( which works great so far) to see if it could fill our need but one blocker I have is that I need to use a dynamic multi-select fetching values from JIRA for two form fields, Labels and Sub-Projects.  
I have searched but I don't see anything that could do the job.  

My use case is very similar to this topic which has unfortunately no answer:   
<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-Integrations/Confiform-How-to-display-Labels-loaded-from-JIRA-in-confiform/qaq-p/1188960>  

Kind Regards,

Are you looking to build a field that is backed by the data from your Jira?

We have couple of examples on our wiki

comments: author: Franck HOCHSTAETTER
body: Hello,  

Not exactly, I've used those documentation page for the customfields that are present in the createmeta and it work perfectly but for this topic my needs is different.  

Labels and Sub-Projects are not in the createmeta json but are results of a query so it must be dynamic for the autocompletion.  
For example here is the link for labels query : https://jirainstance/rest/api/1.0/labels/suggest.json?query={QUERY}


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: ConfiForms does not have a field that supports multi-value holding dynamic fields at the moment.

Only a single select dynamic lookup/proxy field is supported by ConfiForms app


author: Franck HOCHSTAETTER
body: Ah it seems unfortunate, is it in your backlog out of curiosity?


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: I have registered this as a feature request, but cannot give you any ETA at this point.

This is for the first time we see this asked... so, the demand seems to be very low and is very niche and specific, looking at the overall number of our customers

Alex


author: Franck HOCHSTAETTER
body: Okay thank you for this action, keep me informed!  
In the meantime, do you think a workaround can be found for this need?  

Franck


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Best option is to "add yourself as a watcher" on plugin page on Atlassian marketplace - [https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211860/confiforms-data-forms-workflows?hosting=server\&tab=overview](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211860/confiforms-data-forms-workflows?hosting=server&tab=overview)

This way you will receive updates on every new update we do for our app.

And I think we will include something (in experimental stage) to support multi-value holding fields backed by web-service very soon. Stay tuned!


author: Franck HOCHSTAETTER
body: Well I saw you just released it in today update, that was really fast.  

Thank you a lot your reactivity, much appreciated!

LucidChart diagrams not shown despite in editing mode
Asked by Christopher S. Rie?:

Dear community,

first and foremost: This is my very first post so sorry in advance should the information be insufficient and thank you all very much for any support, it will be very much appreciated.

The issue I have been facing for a while now is that, when I create Lucidchart diagrams, they appear as a blank white are with a frame, around them yet the content is not shown.

This applies for different sizes, different styles, ... --\> I did not manage to find a common thread so far.

As soon as I change to editing mode (on the Cofluence page, not in Lucidchart), the diagram's content is shown again.

I did not change any setting concerning viewing rights.

Thank you very much for any help!


Answers:
author: Akasha Akasha
body: I was having the same issue, I found that the LucidChart box was set to **Bold** for the Confluence Text.

It was the only thing that was different between the diagrams that were displaying and the one that wasn't. When I removed the Bold text setting, the diagram now displays when not in edit mode.

Doesn't seem like it should make a difference, but apparently it does.

How to sign a page in Confluence?
Asked by khoren_ispiryan:

Hi, can you provide me with the information on how to make my wiki/confluence page digitally signable?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.


Answers:
author: Chris Cairns - Digital Rose
body: For other readers of this question there are other alternative cloud-native options for signatures. Consider trying electronic signature apps for Jira and Confluence:

body: Hi [@khoren_ispiryan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4143976)

Welcome to the community. The ability to digitally sign pages is not a native capability of Confluence. Fortunately, the Atlassian Marketplace offers a fantastic range of add-ons to customise Confluence to meet your requirements. One option you may want to consider is Comala Document Management Cloud. This includes the ability to capture an e-signature as part of an approval process. You can check out the app in the [marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/142/comala-document-management?hosting=cloud&tab=overview).

For more information about e-signature in Comala Document Management Cloud, see <https://wiki.comalatech.com/display/CDMC/E-signature>

Let me know if you have any questions

All the best

you can also check out our [digital signature](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.baloise.confluence.digital-signature "digital signature") plugin. It's free and open source.

How to export all data created on Confluence from a license to another license
Asked by Do Hai Le:

Hi Support Team,

I have been working on Confluence on a license (created a lot of documentations there). We have a concern if there is a way to export all documentations created from current license into a different license?

Please advise.

Thanks,

Le Do


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello [@Do Hai Le](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3974643)!

After reading your situation it seems that you need to export your Confluence content from one site into another.

If that is the case, we have documentation that covers it:

> * ++***[\[Confluence Cloud\] Create a site backup](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/create-a-site-backup/)***++
> * ++***[\[Confluence Cloud\] Export content to Word, PDF, HTML and XML](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/export-content-to-word-pdf-html-and-xml/)***++
> * [++***\[Confluence Cloud\] Import a Confluence Cloud space***++](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-a-confluence-cloud-space/)

I believe that you need to export your site and then import it back into your instance.

Can you search across multiple tabs in Elements Spreadsheet?
Asked by Clare Morey:

I have a complicated spreasheet that may require staff members to search across the whole spreadsheet not just search tabs individually. I have set the spreadsheet up as an Elements Spreadsheet on a Confluence Page but would like to be able to search across the entire document rather than search each tab.

I would be grateful if anyone could advise if this is possible - and if so, how do you do it?


Answers:
author: Eliott Audry [Elements]
body: Hello [@Clare Morey](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063615) ,

Right now it is not currently possible to search all tabs at once in a Spreadsheet.

However this might be a feature we are interested in adding to our backlog, could you give a use-case example of why your team needed to search in the entire document?

Best regards,

Eliott


author: Robby Holtmann_IntraFind Software AG_
body: Hello [@Clare Morey](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4063615)

Unfortunately, I can't tell you how to achieve it with confluence standard tools.

But maybe you are interested in an alternative, more powerful search solution for Confluence. Here you can find more information: [iFinder Confluence Search](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-Integrations/Enterprise-Search-for-Confluence/ba-p/1584172) and [iFinder Search Macro.](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-Integrations/iFinder-Search-Macro-for-Confluence/ba-p/1717979)

We found all content in Confluence and in more then 600 file types. Of course any XLS content will be foundable.

Best, Robby

500 error when running /admin/v1/orgs/{orgId}/users
Asked by Tony Paterson:

If I run the REST api call:

<https://api.atlassian.com/admin/v1/orgs/{orgid}/users?cursor=0>

It returns a status of 500

JSON body is:

{ "errors": \[ { "id": "7b359bcc-e2e1-4ed1-bd24-d59a4e64a3c8", "status": "500", "code": "ADMIN-500-1", "title": "Internal error", "detail": "We encountered an internal error." } \]}

If I remove the "cursor" parameter it works. But it used to work until about 2 days ago and I need the cursor because the results are paged


Answers:
author: Tyler B [Atlassian]
body: Hey Tony,

I know this is coming late for you, but your post shows up in various searches for this issue so I thought I'd leave a comment here for future people.

When you send a request to that endpoint, you will get a JSON object that is structured broadly like this:

```
{   "data":[...],   "links":{      "self":"https://api.atlassian.com/admin/v1/orgs/{orgid}/users",      "next":"https://api.atlassian.com/admin/v1/orgs/{orgId}/users?cursor={a long string of random characters}"   }}
```

You're interested in following that "links.next" link. The cursor is not a number that you can increment through predictably.


author: Tony Paterson
body: Yes I had found that later on.

In my Python code I get the json object as currUserDetailPage\['json'\] and then apply the below code:

#  
# Get the next cursor value  
#  
if 'next' in currUserDetailPage\['json'\]\['links'\]:  
nextCursorStr = currUserDetailPage\['json'\]\['links'\]\['next'\]  
nextCursorMatch = re.search('cursor=(.\*)', nextCursorStr )  
if nextCursorMatch:  
cursor = nextCursorMatch.group(0)\[7:-1\]  
logger.debug('Next cursor value = ' + cursor, extra={'vstsLevel':coreconf.vsPurple})  
sys.stdout.flush()  
else:  
logger.error('Next link found but no cursor value specified', extra={'vstsLevel':coreconf.vsRed})  
sys.stdout.flush()  
quit(1)  
else:  
allDataCollected = True

Is it possible to include different sections within a deck of cards / card (tabs)?
Asked by Adler Garrett:

Hi,

I am attempting to add multiple sections broken up in halves, thirds etc. to each tab in my wiki. I am used to doing this on the main page, and thought that I would be able to customize a tab the same way I would the main page. Is this the case? If so, how do I do this? When I try to insert a new section, it only allows a full-width section to be entered.

Thanks!

Adler


Answers:
author: Jack Brickey
body: Hi [@Adler Garrett](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4143608) , I realize that this is an old post and things have certainly changed. However in today's cloud Federation you should say something like below. Click in on those two column bars should insert a section with two columns. You can further refine the #columns in the menu bar below these columns.

What will be the last LTS for Confluence Server

Hi,

I just wish to know if the latest LTS foreseen for Confluence Server will be a last version of 7.4, or a new version will be released.

Answers:
author: Yevgen Lasman
body: I suggest [this page](https://confluence.atlassian.com/enterprise/long-term-support-releases-948227420.html) as the best source for Atlassian LTS releases.

Anonymous access still prompts for login
Asked by Jacob Salomonsen:

In Confluence Cloud I have set up anonymous access for one of our spaces. When I test access in incognito mode I can see the space as it should appear, but if I try to access the page from another computer, I am prompted to log in.

I am pretty sure both Global and Space permissions are set OK (Use Confluence) and View Only.

Any thoughts?

Best  
Jacob


Answers:
author: Yevgen Lasman
body: Generally if you have "User Confluence" in global permissions and "View" in space permissions set for Anonymous it should work (just checked on a few sites I own). If it doesn't though, you may want to:

* try same permissions level with other spaces to see whether this affects your site
* try another browser on the same computer you had initially
* make sure you do not have any extended Cloud features such as IP whitelisting, etc.
* if none of this help open a ticket with Atlassian [here](http://support.atlassian.com/contact/).

comments: author: Jacob Salomonsen
body: Yevgen, thanks for your reply. I double checked all settings and still have not been able to solve this - so as recommended I will open a ticket with Atlassian.

What I find really strange is that even if i use another browser on the same computer as recommended, it works fine - but on another computer (ipad) I get the password prompt.

Anyway - I will pursue an answer with Atlassian.

Thanks


author: Jacob Salomonsen
body: Hi again just to follow up - it turned out the browser used to log in had in fact been used to log in with Atlassian credentials before. For some reason this prompts a new log in procedure.

Thanks, Best regards Jacob

How to customize columns in JIRA chart macro?
Asked by Stella Wong:

I've created a 2-dimension JIRA chart with labels as the x-axis. However, I would only like the labels which I care about to show up in the columns instead of all labels tagged to the JIRA. Is there a way to customize it?


Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Stella Wong](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4143152) ,

You may try the [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) app. Wrap your Jira Charts macro in the [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Filter+macro) macro and hide the columns that your don't want to see.

Here is an example of our Jira Chart:

![Thu 1-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/116291iB5B6EBA2B15AB26F/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Thu 1-1.png")

I use statuses instead of labels, but it is just an example - we simply don't use enough labels to illustrate the case.

So, let us pay attention only on the IN PROGRESS and DONE statuses and hide the unnecessary ones:

![Thu 1-2.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/116293iC752972634665B48/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Thu 1-2.png")![Thu 1-3.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/116294i53409E24F3D83C5C/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Thu 1-3.png")

Hope it helps.

comments: author: Stella Wong
body: This worked, but is there a way to choose only the columns I wanted instead? I want to see only the labels which I've created, but because other users are adding their own labels my table keeps dynamically changing. Any idea how I can fix this?


author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: You'll need to use the [Table Transformer](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Transformer+macro) macro instead of the Table Filter macro.

Wrap your Jira Chart into the Table Transformer macro, choose the Custom transformation, go to the SQL query tab and paste the following:

SELECT T1.'Assignee', T1.'Status Done' FROM T\*

This is an example for my table from the previous screenshots to show only Assignee and Done column.

You need to select your own columns that you want to show. Type in T1. and you'll get a pop-up with all available columns of your table to choose from.

body: Hello [@Tarun Sogani](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4143075)!

As I understand, the connection to your Confluence site after login is not working. The error being displayed (4398ti) can be caused by several reasons.

The most common one is Browser related. Usually, we recommend starting the troubleshooting process by clearing the browser cache and if that yields no results, try disabling all plugins and addons from your browser.

If your current browser does not even after all that, we can try another one of the supported browsers:
> ![Screen Shot 2020-11-02 at 11.08.05.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/116727iA2EA211FB519DBCF/image-dimensions/506x278?v=v2 "Screen Shot 2020-11-02 at 11.08.05.png")
>
> * ++***[\[Atlassian Cloud\] Supported Browsers](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/supported-browsers-744721663.html)***++

Other reasons that may cause this behavior are related to page content and are related to some bugs in Confluence. Here, take a look:
> * ***++[\[Confluence Cloud\] When "_" is used as heading, page sometimes fails to load](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-69295)++***
> * [***++\[Confluence Cloud\] Page containing around 100 JIRA links or more doesn't behave properly++***](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-68571)

I hope this content provides some guidance on how to solve this situation!

Looking forward to your reply.
