Page status set through API call
Asked by Pawel Wozniak:

Hi folks,

I saw that Atlassian gave us recently a new feature that allows us to set the Confluence page status -\> <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/add-a-status-to-your-page-or-blog/>

The feature is very useful however, I would like to automate things and let this status be added/updated via API call. Is it possible? I tried to monitor the payload that is being sent when setting the status in the page creator but couldn't find anything related. Pls, help me

Thank you in advance!

it seems that this feature is not yet available through REST API. There is the following api <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/api-group-content-states/#api-wiki-rest-api-content-id-state-put> but, based on status list, it seems not related to status page feature.

Do you know if there is any channel where I could push it as feedback or kind of a feature request? This is really useful but in my case, I would love to have it available through the API.

How can I use `rest/api/content` to download all the 800k pages of my Confluence wiki without timing
Asked by Franck Dernoncourt:

I want to download all the 800k pages of my Confluence wiki.  
I'd like to use:

    curl -u wikiusername:wikipassword https://wiki.hostname.com/rest/api/content?start=1`

and simply increase `start` from `1` to `800000`.

However, the response time increases as `start` increases, and from \~`80000` begins to timeout:  

| `start` | response time (seconds) |
|---------|-------------------------|
| 1       | 0.4                     |
| 1,000   | 2.5                     |
| 10,000  | 9                       |
| 50,000  | 112                     |
| 100,000 | timeout                 |

How can I use `rest/api/content` to download all the 800k pages of my Confluence wiki without timing out?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: This is because when you make the REST call, the server is trying to build the response in memory before it can send it back. If you make it too large, the process will fail.

You're going to need to page through what you're trying to download, you can't do it in one massive great chunk (unless you increased the server memory to something massive)

I'd also want to quickly question why? What is this download going to do for you? I'm thinking there may be a better option (like parsing a backup)

Max date in Table Tranformer
Asked by Leona Vo:

Hi,

I have a very simple table that list the jira tickets and their due dates. I want to find the farthest out due date. Using the Table Transformer, I have this simple query that produces the wrong date. I expect 8/19/22 to come back, but it came back with 5/31/22 which is one date from a list of many with 8/19/22 being the furthermost out.

SELECT FORMATDATE(MAX(T1.'Due')) FROM T1

or

SELECT FORMATDATE(MAX('Due')) FROM T\*

Both produce the same wrong results. What am I missing?

Thank you.

Please check that Date format in your [Table Transformer](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Transformer+macro?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources%20&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro browser corresponds to the dates from the Jira Issue macro.

And use the following SQL query:

*SELECT FORMATDATE((MAX(T1.'Due')),"**m/d/y**") FROM T1*

The part in bold is where you can specify the date format you would like to see as a result. In my example it will be as follows:

Delta between two macro dates
Asked by robert connet:

I am trying to get a delta from two macro dates that are pulling from two sperate tables. Is there a line of code that can be used in the table transformations that could accomplish this?

Requirements Document. Where should I start?
Asked by Ben Butler:

I am looking for a clean place to put requirements document for an application. The team is new to confluence, but I want confluence organized, intuitive, and scalable so I do not end up with a mess as we expand on its usage.

Help would be appreciated, thank you.


Answers:
author: Damian
body: Hi Ben,

I agree with Jack. It's a pretty broad question. For the requirements documentation itself (once you've designed a Space structure), you could look into creating your own template based on an existing format that you use (or want to use) or you could use one of the provided ones like this: [Product Requirements](https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/templates/product-requirements)

If you start off using templates, then you'll have some basic level of consistency for your pages. Templates may change (especially custom ones) but at least you can build their usage into your documentation process.


author: Jack Brickey
body: Hi Ben, that is a pretty broad question to be honest. I don't know if you're looking for some introductory training on Confluence that might result in better decision-making about creating an effective space for your team or maybe something different. I guess that I would suggest starting with the [documentation](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/resources/) and then also I would refer you to [Atlassian university](https://university.atlassian.com/student/collection/850385/path/1083904) for some good training some of which is free. Finally, at least for me, I wouldn't overthink it because you can easily change things within the Confluence world.

if there are some more specific questions feel free to chime in here and I'll do my best to provide my thoughts.

I have a couple of questions to have a better understanding of the issue you are facing with the search:

1. Is the issue only happening with the search team "farm"?
2. Is the issue faced by a single user or all the users?
3. Were any changes performed like upgrade or migration after which you have started seeing this issue?

The application logs will undoubtedly explain the cause of this issue, however, the search issue is mainly related to the corrupt indexes. I would suggest you plan a maintenance window and perform the steps mentioned in the below document:

Answers:

1. Use the checkmark emoticon. Note I have seen issues where this emoticon gets converted to an image, that then does not export well.
2. Develop a user macro for this checkmark, basically a span tag with the right font face the the character for the check mark,
3. Create a small PNG image you can paste into your table (this is the route I went to as it prints out well.

How to export the data searched with a keyword in confluece to pdf

there's a workaround but it only works if your instance is some years in use ...

The [Search Results Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/search-results-macro-139511.html) is deprecated but if you have a page containing the macro, you can copy the macro, paste it on a new page, configure it, save macro and page and finally export the page to PDF.

Confluence server allows you to export pages (individually off of the page) and spaces (in the space settings) to PDF. There is not a delivered mechanism to export pages and spaces identified in the search. I am also not aware of any apps that provide this functionality.

I created a child for a parent and i want to move some items from the parent page to the child page

Answers:

body: [@Glen Brannigan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4713946)

If you are talking about content then you will just need to copy and paste.

If you need to move pages the easiest way is to just reorder the content. This can be done if you are a space admin by going to space settings -\> under manage pages select **reorder** pages. Here you can just drag and drop the pages you want to move under the new child page.

If you are not a space admin you can move each individual page by selecting move under each page's settings (three dots in the upper right-hand corner of each page).

How to auto add the same due date in checklist item linked to a card with a due date?
Asked by iroman:

Hello

I have four lists which are "Project", "To Do", "Doing", "Done" represented four process in a board.

In "Project" list, there is a main project card with checklist items linked to each task card which are converted into "To Do" list by Butler rules.

If I move a task card from "To Do" list to "Doing" list, this task card will be added a due date in 5 working days by Butler rules.

How to add the same due date in main project card's checklist item linked to the task card which is added a due date in 5 working days by Butler rules?

Thank you.

body: [@iroman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4226565)

You are right about all the capabilities that Butler can do in terms of adding 5 days to the due date of the card you moved. There is currently no action to set due dates on checklistitem except with a CF date. If you want to do it via API, unless you are on Business Class, the due dates will not show on the card item. If this is business critical, we can talk offline.

comments: author: milynnus
body: [@iroman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4226565)

You have another question to have converted card to take on the due date and assignment of a checklist item.

Tested this based on your requirements :

```
when a card with a name containing "Do Now!" is added to list "Doing", 
find a card titled "Convert To Card" in list "Investigate", 
for each checklist item in a checklist named "ABC", 
convert the item to a linked card in list "Done" using pattern "{checklsititemname}", 
post to url "https://40979.wayscript.io/butler/checklists?registry=milynnus&module=assigndue_to_card&api_key=<aoi_key>&token=<token>" 
with payload "{ "card_id" : "{foundcardidlong}", "new_card_id" : "{newcardidlong}" , 
"checklist_name" : "ABC", "checklistitem_name" : "{newcardlink}" }"
```

When I check a custom field can I auto-create a card on a different board?
Asked by Louise:

Hi Trello Community

Hope you're all keeping healthy and safe out there. I'd LOVE some help here please :)

We have an Advertiser board and a Production Board. I'd like to be able to automatically create a card on the Production board from a card on the Advertiser board when an advertiser requires us to create them some artwork. I need the card to be updated with some information before it disappears off onto the Production board.

I was thinking of doing this as follows:

Step 1: Having a custom field checkbox on our Advertiser card asking if the Advertiser needs us to create their artwork. When checked a new card would be created in the same list on the Advertiser board with the same card name as the original, just with the work 'artwork' at the end.

Step 2: Our Advertiser board user would then complete the card details, then click a card button called 'Send to Pete' (our awesome Production Manager). This would move the card to the first list on the Production board.

The issue: Firstly, I can't work out how to create a card using automation - it isn't an option on the Butler rules page. Secondly, I don't know how to get the new card to to have the same name with the word 'artwork' after it (but this may be simple once I can access a 'create card' functionality).

Sorry if I'm missing something really obvious here - pretty new user ;)

Cheers

Lou (New Zealand)


Answers:
author: milynnus
body: [@Louise](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4288918)

The short answer is the you can **create a new card** with either a Butler Board or Calendar. To use a trigger like a CF you would need to **copy a card** instead to "create" a new card. The copied card takes on the same details as the original card.

Trello doesn't actually send a notification in slack - any help?
Asked by Jonathan Wright:

So whenever i set up a channel alert in Trello to go to slack i'll put in something like

" @here A video is ready for review {cardname}. Link {cardlink}"

Link {cardlink}" it will once again just type exactly that without actually sending a notification to the user.
