How to view public page
Asked by Debbie Conner:

I am trying to make my page public and have followed the steps here (<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/share-content-externally-with-public-links/>) and have the global options turned on to share. The question is how do I view the public page- when I go to share i do not have a public link toggle, and when I copy the link and open it, it takes me to my version of the page. Do i need a higher plan than standard?

Thanks for any suggestions

Debbie

Have you tried logging out of your instance and then opening the public link? You may be redirecting to your internal access while you remain logged in.

Can you share the link so I can test (I don't have access to your instance)?

comments: author: Debbie Conner
body: Thanks for helping- I did log out of all open confluence open "things" and sent the link to an email not associated with confluence but still showed up. The copy link that i get when I hit the share button is

No admin features though. I have a feeling you are still logged in - try opening it yourself in Chrome in Incognito mode to see what I am experiencing.

Any hope for migrating to cloud from Server 5.7?
Asked by Wilson Rodriguez:

Trying to migrate from Confluence Server version 5.7 to Confluence Cloud 1000.0.0-ed545e62de50.

Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant supports 5.10 and after, I'm on 5.7 so this is not an option.

Attempting an XML export and space import is also not an option since it states it "will not work if you are importing from server version 6.13 or earlier"

What other options do I have?


Answers:
author: Craig Castle-Mead
body: Hey Wilson,

As above, while you may be able to make it work from 5.7, as others have said above, upgrading is going to give you a more straightforward migration path.

Given 5.7 was released in 2015, you may need to do a few interim upgrades to get to a version with decent Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant (CCMA) support, but, IMO, well worth it compared to the likely pain of broken/partial migrations from 5.7 to Cloud.

Welcome to the community!!

Yes, it is possible. Upgrade the instance to version 7 which is possible and then with Confluence Cloud assistant App you can migrate the Spaces and user data to ??

Please find the doc here on Upgrade matrix

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-upgrade-matrix-960695895.html>

You may need to setup dc here if your license has expired maintenance

Thanks,

body: [@Wilson Rodriguez](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4704260) Welcome to the Atlassian community

I would suggest upgrading your on-premise instance to a newer version to do the migration as it will be easier. I would suggest submitting a support issue here <https://support.atlassian.com/contact/> and see if they could provide a demo license for a newer version of confluence so you can upgrade and do the migration.


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Space imports from versions below 6.13 can work if you have not done anything too clever in a space.

But your only other route is to create a temporary development server on a version that's high enough to run JCMA or do the imports, while low enough that moving from 5.7 is an easy task.

Either take a copy of your current production and upgrade it or install an empty one and use export and import to get your spaces into it for migration.

Transferring US orders to Europe
Asked by Sophia Caramanoff:

I was wondering if we have a process in place if a customer makes a reservation in the US and wants to transfer their order to the European market?

I feel this could be a question we are face frequently in the coming months as we expand across Europe and our affluent clients have homes in multiple locations.

I am assuming that you are referencing where your cloud hosting is taking place. Atlassian has a robust cloud hosting infrastructure for Jira Software, Jira Service Management, and Confluence. It includes AWS regions across the United States, Germany, Ireland, Singapore, and Australia. When you sign-up it looks at where you are signing up from and locates your data based on the origin of access to help ensure more reliable performance and reduced latency.

If you have originally signed up in the US but everyone accessing the Atlassian products is in Europe I would submit a support issue so they can relocate your provisioned hosting.

So as explained by [@Brant Schroeder](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/769100) If you have a premium version of confluence in your site you can change the site hosted in org settings

Google Drive document won't display inline in Confluence; says link is restricted
Asked by Jon Andersen:

I'm trying to embed a spreadsheet in a confluence page. The document has been "published to web" (and that article needs to be updated to reflect the new gdrive menu layout).

I own the gdrive document, I've given it "anyone with link" permission, the gdrive integration app has been installed, and my account allows atlassian to access GDrive

body: Hi [@Jon Andersen](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4704211) ?

Welcome to the Community! You've popped this question in the Trello area but it sounds like this is more focused on Confluence, am I right?

I would recommend looking at adding the [Google Drive Macro](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-google-drive-macro/), as that will enable you to embed Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides files from your Google Drive directly into your Confluence page.

I hope this helps but if you have any other questions just ask away ?

All the best,

Laura

By default the link is restricted when you share the drive link

Is there a way to see what pages a user has access to?
Asked by Eric Hoch:

Some of our pages were set up with user level permissions (ie adding a specific user to the page permissions) and not group level permissions. Is there a way to list, pull a report or audit what pages an individual has access to? Or is there a way to onboard someone with the same page access as another user that was only given access to certain pages?

I looked in the admin section under Users but am unable to see that info


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Eric Hoch](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/944556) Unfortanlty in cloud this feature does not exist yet. In Data Center or Server, there is a SQL query you can run to get this information. This feature request provides some of the information you are after so you should consider voting for it <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-42853>

I would suggest setting up Groups in Confluence to control access and move away from individual user access. If you utilize groups then all you have to do is add new users to the proper groups when they onboard and they will have the same access as the other users on their team. I would suggest looking at these KB articles

* [Create and Update Groups](https://support.atlassian.com/user-management/docs/create-and-update-groups/)
* [Manage Global Permissions](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/manage-global-permissions/)

Can one enable fuzzy search autocomplete with text fields like Labels?
Asked by Daniel Rositano:

I searched around for a forum topic about this so hopefully I didn't miss an existing thread.

I'm trying to determine if there is a way to have Jira autocomplete/autosuggest terms using "fuzzy" search functionality. For example, if I had two Labels "**Outsource_3D** " and "**Concept_Outsource**", and I started typing "Outsource" in the following query, it would suggest both results.

```
Project = example AND Labels in (Outsource
```

Currently, the autocomplete behavior will only suggest exact matches of labels that *begin* with "Outsource" even if there were labels with the exact text "Outsource" elsewhere in the label.

EDIT: I found something similar for Project Key and Issue Key fuzzy search, but not other fields. <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-61197>


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Daniel Rositano](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2324849) It looks like what you are looking for is related to Jira. Label search has to be an exact match. There is currently not a fuzzy search option for labels. The closet request for something similar is this feature request for a wildcard search. <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-23038> According to the feature request this does not look like it will be implemented anytime soon.

I hope you can help me...some of me MAC users reported that they have strange user email addresses within their Outlook client like: username (confluence) confluence@\<myinstance\>.atlassian.net.   

Where does those come from, and how can I disable it. If you send a mail to such address, you will get n NDR back...so its not a big deal, but since the Mail Client is not showing the (confluence) part be default, users might send their stuff to those "wrong" accounts.

Values of Excel sheets are not displayed

Hello everybody,

by using the makro for exel, some values of formulas are not displayed, respectivly, it is displayed as a formula mistake. In the excel sheet is everything fine, even the first result is correct:

Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Sasko Moraliev](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4703495) ,

Sometimes the Excel macro won't display very complex formulas - don't know if this is your case though, but I came across such thing several times.

You may browse the Atlassian Marketplace for the apps that recreate Confluence tables from CSV attachments (I think there are even free apps).

Our app that is [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud) is a paid add-on, but it's a complex plugin that will be able to replace Excel and you won't need to switch between two instances. Please, check our **Table Spreadsheet** macro - a fully functional Excel spreadsheet with formulas, graphs, pivots, conditional formatting, etc. that you can edit right from the page view mode.

![Tue 4-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/177259iBF810BA5730EBB53/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Tue 4-1.png")

Besides, our app also provides the [Table from CSV](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+from+CSV+macro) macro to recreate tables from CSV attachments/URLs. These recreated tables can be also filtered/aggregated/visualized in Confluence with the help of our other macros.

comments: author: Sasko Moraliev
body: Hi [@Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1464746) ,

thanks for your reply. The formula is the same as in the left field, where the result is displayed correct. And it is not complexe ;-)

But your second hint was very helpful! I found a free app "Excel Like Tables" and it works in every case very good. Also better to use for tables, than the standard functionality of confluence, which loks really awful when the columns are all schrinkend.

Thx an regards

How to include the parent page (along with it's ancestors) in the decision report macro?
Asked by Brian M_ Smith:

I am trying to use the decisions report macro to show decisions for a parent page and its ancestors. Ancestors only includes the ancestors but not the parent page itself in the results. Can someone help me understand how to edit the decision report to do this?

Using the example structure below, I want to include decision on Team Rockets page and all of Team Rockets ancestors.

Space A"

(Many Pages I don't care about)

Team Rockets

- Team Rockets Decision Page

- Team Rockets other subpages

Thank you in advance.


Answers:
author: Brian M_ Smith
body: For those that have the same question, this is how I worked around the issue.

I added two decision report macros:

1. One that showed only the parent page.

2. One that showed all of its ancestors.

Hopefully, that helps others. Too bad the CQL logic can't support doing both Parent Page and Ancestors).


author: Pramodh M
body: Hi [@Brian M_ Smith](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4171439)

Welcome to the Community!!

You have a filter that can include "with ancestors", have that in place

Using labels would restrict the pages which you want to show

For all the filters please find the ref below

<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-decision-report-macro/>

Thanks,  
Pramodh

comments: author: Brian M_ Smith
body: Yes, I am using "With Ancestors" as shown and that is not including the parent page.

Are you suggesting that I should not be using the "With Ancestors" and switch to using labels?


author: Brian M_ Smith
body: If I add a label "Training" to the Parent page (e.g. Team Rockets) and add Label as the only decisions macro parameter, it just shows that page. If I add "with ancestors" in addition the label, I get no results. I have a lot of subpages, and they all change, I don't want to have to label them all.


author: Jono Stiansen
body: I second this, why can't we do raw CQL here? [@Pramodh M](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3691224) can we do use CQL directly? It's referenced in the docs but this UI doesn't allow for it, and I'm not sure how we can get anything else. I.e. I'd like to have access to \`and\` or \`or\` within the UI or have access to CQL directly.

3-dot (...) menu won't scroll to the bottom if it's longer than the page.
Asked by Maksym Mishchenko:

Whenever the 3-dot/hamburger/... menu is longer than the page itself. The items at the bottom are bellow the page.

Despite the scrollbar appearing, if you try to scroll down the page just jerks around and scrolls to the top.

It's possible to access the bottom items, if you zoom out. But that's not really something we can present to our users as a real solution.

author: Arno Schoenmakers
body: We have exactly the same issue. It is browser independent as far as our users have reported. Since we are using a number of addons that add items to the 'three-dot-menu' the list has become longer than the browser height, and bottom items have become inaccessible unless you zoom out the page. This is really annoying and should not be possible in a mature interface. We are using Data Center version 7.18.1, by the way. Looking forward to a quick solution to this...!

How can I make the blog feature look good?
Asked by Rob Grant:

I have several questions on this topic, but I'll limit to one: when I use the macro that lists blog posts for a space, it looks *awful*. For the "excerpt" option it ignores styles, and for "excerpt" or "full" if there's a video in the blog post it shows some markup.

That's fine if that's the default (well not fine at all, but bearable) if there's a way to customise the styling with CSS. But since the cloud version of Confluence doesn't have - say - user macros, how can this be done?
