Is it possible to create space templates?
Asked by Leo Lanksford:

Is it possible to create a space template which appears in the attached screen?

The idea being that I can create a template containing all the permissions and default pages i require to save time having to set them all up each time i create a new space.

For example all my spaces have the same page structure.

Im not sure this is possible through the confluence platform at the moment, but im open to developing a plugin if it is possible that way?

I don't think it's possible to do that in Cloud, but it's doable on [Server/DC confluence](https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/space-blueprints/). There is a suggestion for this here <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-4538> which you can vote and watch.

When we are creating application links with external application
Asked by Sreenatha Reddy J:

Hi Team,

I am creating the application link in Confluence cloud with external application, in the process of creating there is a mandatory field "Public Key". so please guide me from where we need to take this key?


Answers:
author: Alex Koxaras _Relational_
body: Hi [@Sreenatha Reddy J](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4921563)

Please refer to this documentation for application links <https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/use-applinks-to-link-to-atlassian-products/>

Depending what application link you want to connect, (from a cloud app to a self hosted app), there is a certain procedure you have to follow. E.g. if you want to connect JSM server to confluence cloud, then you have to initiate the procedure from confluence cloud. There you would produce the public key which you would later copy to your JSM server app.


author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@Sreenatha Reddy J](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4921563)

Can you clarify where you are creating this Application Link? And what Application are you linking to Confluence?

Merging Confluence Instance
Asked by kanchana wijerathna:

We have requirement to merge two confluence instances into one single instance. Space export and import is the selected way to do this, but once instance uses crowd users with username as firstname.lastname where other instance uses crowd users with username as employee id. the source instance having around 9000 users and 700 spaces and 15 plugins. please explain a way to proceed this ?


Answers:
author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@kanchana wijerathna](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/604666)

I'd think the simple solution is to modify the source instance's usernames to match.

You should be able to do this using the [Crowd REST APIs](https://developer.atlassian.com/server/crowd/crowd-rest-apis/); using the [Rename method](https://docs.atlassian.com/atlassian-crowd/4.4.0/REST/#usermanagement/1/user-renameUser).

Answers:
author: Zoriana Bogutska_Adaptavist_
body: Hi [@Tim Fetner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5013811)

You have to ask the vendor which app you use..

For example, using [Content formatting Macros for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/247/content-formatting-macros-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview&utm_source=Atlassian-Community&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=Comment_Tabs%2BLite-for-Confluence_20221117)you can insert text and pictures inside the macro tab easily.

Let me know if you are interested in using a second app for that, it is developed by my team.

Restricted Page Permissions for User as Individual Who is Also Member of Group
Asked by Martin Caballero:

My suspicion is that if a user has been granted view/edit access to a restricted page but they are also a member of a group granted view access to the same page, Confluence will enforce the least privilege for that user as a member of the group instead. Workaround was to remove the group from the page temporarily to be able to get the Edit button but this is not a sustainable option for a page that needs frequent editing. Would like some confirmation this behavior is to be expected.


Answers:
author: Martin Caballero
body: User actually updated me that after re-applying the same permissions, the Edit button worked again despite adding the view access group which the user is a member of. Looks like a glitch.

How to use Markdown in Confluence
Asked by David Ventimiglia:

How do I use Markdown if at all for authoring Confluence content?

I ask because a web search shows a number of articles and pieces of documentation that indicate one can use Markdown directly in Confluence via **Insert \> Markdown**. However, I don't have that option. My Confluence insert drop-down offers many choices, but Markdown isn't one of them. See the attached screenshot.

What do you all recommend?

![Screenshot from 2022-11-14 15-11-54.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/225665i54D89E4017F13EA4/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot from 2022-11-14 15-11-54.png")


Answers:
author: Dawid Joshua _TechTime_
body: The Markdown description you're sharing fits the Legacy editor. From **Confluence wiki markup syntax** page ([here](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-confluence-wiki-markup/)):  
> To insert markdown in the **Legacy editor** :
>
> 1. Choose **Insert** \> **Markup**.
> 2. Select **Markdown**.
> 3. Type or paste your text - the preview will show you how it will appear on your page.
> 4. Choose **Insert**.
>
> As with wiki markup, Confluence Cloud will convert your markdown to the rich text editor format. You will not be able to edit your content using markdown.

Legacy editor on Cloud exists only when you migrate from Server to Cloud. When you hit the **Create** button on Confluence Cloud, you can only use the New editor to create pages. Check the differences between the two editors [here](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/confluence-cloud-editor-roadmap/). Although you don't have a markdown macro in the new editor, it comes with native formatting options listed [here](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/available-markdown-commands/).

Hope that answers your question.


author: Nar Kumar C. - Narva Software
body: Hi David,

If you paste Markdown into Confluence editor, it will automatically convert to Confluence format. So if you want to edit, you can no more use Markdown after pasting.

As an alternative option, we recently released an app: [**Markdown for Confluence - Native Markdown Editor**](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1231324/markdown-for-confluence-native-markdown-editor?hosting=cloud&tab=overview&utm_source=community&utm_medium=referral)

With this app, you can create and edit Confluence pages with Markdown. So it allows pasting Markdown and editing them afterward using Markdown.

Hope this app will be helpful. Let us know if you have any feedback.

body: Hi [@Nar Kumar C_ - Narva Software](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2114177)

Custom Fields - Need more colors
Asked by sueosbo:

Hello, I currently use one of the custom fields to assign team members to a card. I need to add more team members, but have run out of colors. How can I add more colors after I have used all 11 of the colors to choose from?

Answers:
author: Brittany Joiner
body: [@sueosbo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4570629) as far as i know, those are the only options. What I do with labels is "group" my labels by color, so perhaps you can do that with your fields? Not sure what your use case is, but let's say you're organizing product details on fields, you can have all your red fields relate to pricing, all your green fields relate to product details, etc.

You can also choose which lists they go into, and reply directly from the cards from any device since it's not a power up.

Has anyone had any issues turning on the integration between Slack and Trello?
Asked by Colin Homer:

We have the integration enabled on Trello for slack but I have a user advising the following :

The Slack plugin for Trello is available and does not seem to be restricted by our organisational security policy. However, when I try to configure its preferences the full list of channels are not available to me. Also, the submit button does not seem to register my preferences in any case (and sends me back to step 1 with no error or success message).

Any suggestions would be welcomed we are basically trying to setup the following:-

If so, we've seen instances of the Slack API giving us an incomplete response when fetching the list of possible channels to link with.

Can you try reloading the power-up configuration screen and see if its consistently reproduce-able?

Thanks,

custom fields, and card move
Asked by ABDUL MAJID:

Hi, I need to build a Trello board to streamline rental/ lease expiry dates.

I need to show custom fields, along with commencement dates and expiration dates. I need a renewal reminder which is 4 months before and a renewal due reminder which is 3 months. This board is shared with multiple users so I would like LISTs for the different properties locations, then as it gets urgent it moves to another LIST called RENEWAL REMINDER then another to RENEWAL DUE. Once a lease has been renewed we can put it back into the original LIST of the property location.

does that make sense?


Answers:
author: Brittany Joiner
body: [@ABDUL MAJID](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4006855) can definitely be done with Trello, I'm not even sure you'd need the custom fields, you can use start and due dates for commencement and expiry, and then use Butler/Automation for moving it to other lists based on due dates (just go to Automation --\> Due dates)

comments: author: milynnus
body: [@ABDUL MAJID](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4006855) agree with [@Brittany Joiner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1692248)


author: milynnus
body: [@ABDUL MAJID](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4006855)

Sounds like something doable. Is there a blocker you are facing?


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@ABDUL MAJID](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4006855) the only thing there that I think you'll have issues with is moving back to the original list. You might need something like setting a "Location" custom field then move to the list named with that Location after the lease is renewed.

You could also use labels to indicate urgent renewals, move those cards to the top of the list and post a notification or something. That way you could easily filter the board based on labels to see all your urgent renews.

Also if you're communicating via email, my BenkoDesk product would allow you to easily send out emails by simply posting comments to cards (Gmail only right now):

Well, if someone in real life drops a panel that has nothing to do with your dashboard on it or puts a sticker on your desktop, however you want to see it, it's nice to be able to clean it.

The keyboard shorcut only makes it smaller, it does not close it.

Anyway, thank you very much for your answer. If at any time that option arrives, I will activate it.

author: G subramanyam
