How to create a chart that references table entries from separate Pages
Asked by Scott Porwancher:

I am new to this, so I apologize for not knowing a lot of terminology with this product.

**Background**

I have separate Pages within a Space for each customer I have. Within each of those customer Pages, I have a table that displays the date of the last time a specific task was completed.

**Desired Outcome**

I am trying to find a way to create a Page that will display all Customer Names along with the most recent date in the table mentioned above for each of the customers. It would look something like:

++Customer++ ++Date Task Was Completed++

Customer1 June 10, 2021

Customer2 July 18, 2021

Customer3 May 27, 2021

This would allow me to see which customers need this task completed, without needing to manually go into each page.

Is that possible? I appreciate any assistance!

The standard Confluence macros that allow you to collect one-row tables from different Confluence pages are the [Page Properties/Page Properties Report](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-page-properties-report-macro/) macros.

If you want to amplify your report and collect multiple-row tables as well as several tables from the same page, you'll need additional apps, for example, our add-on - [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview).

The [Table Excerpt/Table Excerpt Include](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Excerpt+and+Table+Excerpt+Include+macros) macros will do the trick for you, and the result report could be further powered up by the [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Filter+macro) macro - for filtering and sorting (by customers, dates, etc.).

You may check [our recent blog post](https://stiltsoft.com/blog/2020/10/how-to-create-reports-from-multiple-confluence-tables/) related to the case that is similar to yours.

How can I configure SAML SSO 2.0 to allow anonymous access?
Asked by Matt Parks:

I am using Confluence Data Center 7.9.3 and am trying to configure SAML SSO 2.0 (instead of the mini Orange plugin). However, when I have anonymous access turned on for the site, it bypasses the SSO and logs everyone in as an anonymous user.

This was also a problem with the mini Orange plugin until they came out with a "Guest Login" feature, so it would attempt to log in the user via SSO and only give them anonymous access if they didn't have a user account in Confluence.

Is there an equivalent feature in SAML SSO 2.0 in Confluence Data Center?

Public Space vs. Google and other search engines indexing
Asked by Branislav Randa:

Hello there oh mighty and knowledgeable community members!

Regarding **public Space:**

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/make-a-space-public-829076202.html>

Is the **Space** when **made public** **indexed by Google** and other search engines **or not?** If yes, can I prevent this from happening, so only people with url can see the public Space?

Thank You!

With best regards

Bryan

Welcome to the Community!

As far as I'm aware, the above will work, yes.

Keep in mind though that if it is public others could still share the URL.

Hope that helps,

Liam

comments: author: Branislav Randa
body: Hey there [@Liam](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/100804)

Well, thank You kindly for Your fast reply! And, I'd like to avoid this, since I only want people with URL link to public Confluence that have it, not random "Googlers".  

Is there a way that a Confluence page can be public, but not listed?  

With best regards  

Bryan


author: Liam Green
body: Hi Bryan

I cannot see that it is possible to stop this through Confluence.

What you could do is manually request that Google remove the specific URL from their indexing using the [Google Webmaster tools](https://www.google.com/webmasters/).

Hope that helps,

To Do List via html code/ macro
Asked by Daniel Vlad:

We have considered using this example (<https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_js_todolist.asp>) to create a "To Do List" via html code / macro in confluence. This should also be expandable.

So far it works, but not after refreshing the page. The cause is probably the "editor" mode. The changes are not saved because we are in "online" mode.

<br />

Does anyone have any suggestion how this could be resolved?

How do I Display Location columns in my Task Report macro?
Asked by Srinivas Musale:

How do I Display Location columns in my Task Report macro, currently, it is showing only these 4 columns (Description, Due Date, Assignee \& Task Appears on), I want to add a region-wise filter so that I get the task list for (EMEA, JAPAC, AMER etc..).

Please assist me acccoridngly.

Srinivas Musale


Answers:
author: Alex Koxaras _Relational_
body: Hi [@Srinivas Musale](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4496806) and welcome to the community,

Add any field you want on the "columns to display" field. Kindly see the following image:

Location is the page which the task appears. It has nothing to do with geographical location. In addition, allowed columns are description, duedate, assignee, location, completedate, labels.

Hope that helps,  
Alex

body: Hi Alex,

Thanks for your response. Yes, I know the default fields. Please refer to the below-attached screen prints for your reference.

Claim accounts as part of a domain verification required?
Asked by Joshua Baird:

Hi,

Im in the process of setting up confluence cloud for a few members of our organization and hopefully SSO with it.

However, when I try to do this, I'm stuck at verifying domain. It says that there are 200 accounts and everyone will be notified. is there no way to verify the domain for SSO without spamming the entire organization? or is there a way to only notify the group of people that have this confluence access?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Do, there's no way to do this.

Remember that when you claim a domain, you are effectively taking people's accounts away from them. It's at the very least, polite to formally tell them that you're taking ownership of something that was previously theirs.

body: is there no way to claim only certain users? i understand that we're claiming the whole domain but not for everyone. i know that doesnt make sense but we are only after a handful of people

?Is there a way to upload files on a masive scale?
Asked by Jos? Ignacio Cayuela de Pedro:

I want to import a lot of files from another document manager, and I have no the way t do that


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Cloud can only cope with single uploads of up to a certain size. It's not a hard limit, it's a bit variable, depending on network speed, volume, comrpressability and other factors, but you can always assume there is a limit you will hit.

But if you were to script an import that did one file at a time over the REST api (and recorded failures so you could go back and retry them), then one-file-at-a-time will not get close to any limit and you'll be able to upload as much as you like.

How to generate a web-link for the user guide developed on Confluence?
Asked by ankitap:

I have developed a user guide on Confluence for one of the products. Now it is ready and I want to share it with the end-users. Please provide the process of generating a link (a URL) for this user guide that can be shared with the product's end-users.


Answers:
author: Sven Schatter _Lively Apps_
body: Hi [@ankitap](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3641975),

You can share single pages, using the share functionality described [here](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/share-a-page-or-blog-post/). If you're looking to publicly share a whole space via a link with more users, you could also [make your space public](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/make-a-space-public/).

Be aware however, that if you make your space public, the users you share it with will potentially also be able to see things like older versions of your page, comments, attachments, and basically everything you can see yourself. Also, certain macros, or things like smart links, may not work correctly for anonymous users.

Since you said you've developed a user guide that you want to share, I can also recommend taking a look at something like [Scroll Viewport for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211636/scroll-viewport-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud) which lets you publish spaces to a real website. It's easy to set up, a lot more sophisticated than what Confluence offers by itself, and you can even put it on your own domain. For example, our documentation for our own apps is built on it: <https://help.livelyapps.com/>

Hope this helps! :)

Cheers,  
Sven

We have rosters for our agile ceremonies such as standups, showcases across multiple pods. This includes on-call production support rosters too.

Trello Calendar + Google integration
Asked by Bobbi-Lea Dionysius:

Hi!

How do I change the trello calendar powerup settings to start the week on a Monday (instead of Sunday).

With Trello powerup - how do I set the timezone?

With Trello and Google Calendar integration - how do I set the timezone?

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Denise
body: Hi Bobbi-Lea,

In Trello the date formatting options as well as first day of the week are being controlled via language settings. You therefore might want to consider changing the language to see if that makes for a better experience. See <https://help.trello.com/article/813-setting-the-first-day-of-the-week-for-the-calendar>

The timezone for Trello is set based on the information we receive from your browser. You can visit the following link to verify what that looks like <https://trello.com/support/get-timezone>

If you're seeing timezone issues in Trello, please log out of Trello and back in to see if that updates to the correct timezone. If the issue persists, please get in touch with us at <https://trello.com/contact> so we can take a closer look.

Regarding [using Trello with Google Calendar](https://help.trello.com/article/829-using-trello-with-google-calendar) - the ics file will include Z times for the event. For more on how time zones work in Google Calendar, see <https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37064?>

Trello appending http to scheme in applicaiton links. Is this intentional?
Asked by Robert Daniel Pickard [Administrator]:

Hi all,

When attaching a link to a card in Trello version 2.10.13 on OS X 10.14.3 that uses an application scheme it prepends http.

For example the link

```
x-devonthink-item://F1B97DB6-81BD-46A7-8EFE-02FC646DE0FF
```

Gets added to the card as

![Screen Shot 2019-06-08 at 2.57.27 PM.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/57013i784E9784D7FAB356/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screen Shot 2019-06-08 at 2.57.27 PM.png")

which breaks associating application specific references.

Is this intentional?

If so, why? If not, would this be a feature others would find useful?

Thanks,

rdp


Answers:
author: Mike
body: Hi Robert,

I wouldn't say it's intentional that we're breaking your application scheme URL, but adding the http at the beginning *is* intentional, as most people are adding web links there. That's the expected attachment type

I'll certainly let the team know you'd like to see this changed, but in the meantime, I would suggest editing the link after attaching it to remove the http. Sorry about that!
Setting value of newly-created Custom field on existing cards as well as on new cards going forward
Asked by jane f:

I have a trello board with many existing cards. I just started using the custom fields power up and created a new custom field, and noticed, after creating a few new cards and setting the custom field to a value on them, the new field remains absent on all pre-existing cards.  

QUESTION #1  
Is there a way to set all cards created in the future to a default value of X for this custom dropdown field? If so, since 95% of all cards should be X, I would only have to manually change to a different value on about 5% of cards. note: I was able to accomplish this using ButlerForTrello but am wondering if I accomplish it natively to Trello.  

QUESTION #2  
Is there any way to set all EXISTING cards to utilize the newly-created custom field and set that field to X value? note: I was UNable to accomplish this using ButlerForTrello so very much hoping to accomplish natively to Trello.  

I'm hoping for a quick solution to avoid manually opening each existing card, one at a time and putting a value on each card for the custom field.  

Such a solution would also be useful in the future when creating another custom field.  

Please advise and TYVM
