How to make a reference to one table from different places on one page
Asked by Viacheslav:

Hello!  
I want to create a page on Confluence.

In the bottom of this page I want to have 1 table.

And I want to show this table from different sections of this page.

Is it possible?

For example:

____________________________________________________  
Section 1

...some content...  
----\> show **bottom-table**   
...some content...  
Section 2  
...some content...  
----\> show **bottom-table**   
...some content...  
Section 3  
...some content...  
----\> show **bottom-table**   
...some content...  

Section 4  
...**bottom-table**...

Welcome to the community.

I am not fully clear about your requirement.

If you are trying to get all columns/rows from a table from **page A** to **page B,** I would request you to try **Excerpt** and **Exceprt-Include** macros.

1. In first page, Add **Excerpt** macro and inside that create your table. As shown in image below

2. Add **exceprt-Include** macro in **Page B** . Edit exceprt-Include macro in the ++page B++ and in section "**Page Containing the Excerpt** " mention ++page A++   
uncheck "Remove Surrounding Panel" if you dont want to see pageA heading in pageB

3. You can copy same macro and add it in your required sections. Example in attached image.

More about **Excerpt macro** : <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/excerpt-macro-148062.html>  
and about **Excerpt Include Macro** : <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/excerpt-include-macro-148067.html>

If this is what you were looking, please accept the answer.

body: No, the standard Excerpt/Excerpt Include macros don't have such feature. You'll need a 3rd party app for such case.

I am Nikita from Stiltsoft.  

Our add-on [Table Filter and Chart](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview&utm_source=atl_community) includes the macros, specially developed to meet your needs in full - they are Table Excerpt \& Table Excerpt Include.  

[The Table Excerpt and Table Excerpt Include macros](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Excerpt+and+Table+Excerpt+Include+macros?utm_source=atl_community)combine different kinds of table excerption and multi-excerption in one tool, allowing you to pick any table and any place to plant it as an excerpt.  

It works well with any version of Confluence: Cloud, Data Center, and Server.
