Embedded Velocity Variable in Form Field Call
Asked by Confi User:

I was trying to do the following, but nothing would show up in my Jira description:

#set( $range= $convert.toInteger("\[entry.numOfActions.id\]") )

#foreach($i in \[1..$range\])

#set($add = "\[entry.actionType${i}\]")

#set($sendAway = "$sendAway$add")

#end

"description": "$sendAway"

entry.numOfAction.id return 1,2,3,4 etc...

This is suppose to get the value from the field which end with different number 1 through 6 and append then into my description.

I was just wondering if it possible to do this on confiforms or is it not supported?

Also this is inside my overall Jira IFTTT oncreated request.

Thanks :)


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: In ConfiForms the template you give is first evaluated for "\[entry.field_name\]" expressions, finding the values for expressions you have

And then, attempting to evaluate it as a Velocity Template

So, having something like \[entry.actionType${i}\] will never work, as well as using "$convert" (which is not something you have available in the Velocity context)

Alex

comments: author: Confi User
body: okay, Thanks!

If I do something like:

#($var = "entry.actionType$i")

#($add = "\[$var\]")

will this also not work because of the fact that it's evaluated first even though "entry." doesn't exist?

EDIT: I tried it out and it does not work, but if there a work around by any chance or am I out of luck?


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Of course it will not work as explained before (why) - there is no such thing as entry.actionType$i when \[entry.field_name\] expressions get processed

I am actually not sure what is the end result you want to achieve.


author: Confi User
body: I am trying to make a range for loop that will access all of my fields because the only difference between all my fields is that the number at the end is different. So I wanted to dynamically change the last number before trying to access the fields and just do everything I need to do in that 1 for loop. If that doesn't make sense let me know and I can give an example.


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: What you are trying to do will not work this way.

As explained earlier the expressions are evaluated BEFORE the template gets processed as Velocity template

Welcome to the Community !!

While Creating new Page you will get option to Import the word /google doc/One Drive Document.

You can select multiple document at a time and import it.

Retrieving confluence space from former employee
Asked by Travis Lippert:

Hello,

I'm being asked how we will retrieve the information from a Confluence account of a person who has left our company. Is there a clear way to do this on Confluence Cloud? Appears that changing ownership of a space isn't possible by the end-user, as there is no way for us to access the database.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Travis Lippert](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4879688) Welcome to the Atlassian community

Is the Confluence site the space is on owned by the company? Are you the Confluence site admin? If you answered both yes you can use the following instructions to access the space and add additional individuals to it <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/assign-space-permissions/>

If the site the Confluence space is on is not owned by the company then you will not be able to get access to it. You could work with the former employee to see if they would export it so you could import it or use the following method to import it. <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-a-confluence-cloud-space/>

Document Management Question
Asked by Todd Sandeman:

Is there a report/filter, or anything that will allow me to, in Confluence Cloud, see a list of documents saved in a specific space, the date it was last edited, and other such metadata? If not, do you have ideas on how to do so? Thank you!


Answers:
author: marc -Collabello--Phase Locked-
body: Hi [@Todd Sandeman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4705651) ,

Maybe this app can help: <https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1226276/keep-it-up-to-date>

It's free and simple to use, but I'm not sure if it matches your use case.


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: The answer does depend on what you mean by "document".

If you mean "document = page", the way a wiki like Confluence is supposed to be used, then yes, there are loads of ways of looking at the metadata for a page - macros, reports, page lists, searches, all expose different bits of the metadata.

If you mean "document = attachment", then, no, not really. You can get lists of attachments, but because it's not a document store, there's not a lot of metadata. Go to "space settings" -\> content -\> attachments, for a list, the attachment location, size, created and last edited date author and labels. There isn't a lot more to them.

API Token Not working - Confluence Cloud
Asked by kristin whitaker:

Hi! I am the Org \& Site Admin for our Confluence Cloud instance. I went to my settings and created an API token to add to our search index tool and it's not working for me. it doesn't accept my authentication. We did the same with someone on my team that I made a Site Admin. We are able to get it to work with his. Is there any reason why it won't work for my account?

Groups from Azure not automatically synchronising with Atlassian anymore
Asked by Sathvik Kirti Kiran:

Atlassian would provision new user accounts from Azure AD and add them to groups as in Azure. Currently new users were created on Atlassian from Azure but they were not added to their respective groups (like they were until two weeks ago).

Cannot add the user to these groups manually because it says "You can't add members to this group because it is synced from an external directory."

Any help appreciated. Thanks! _/\\_


Answers:
author: Connor
body: I have noticed it can take 30-60+ minutes after a user is provisioned, before the Atlassian group assignments display properly on the user profile. If its been hours since the users were provisioned and their group membership still isn't correct then continue reading.

The users can't be added manually to the groups because the groups are also being synced. Make sure the users were added as members of the group in Azure and not directly added to the Atlassian application within Azure.

If they are members of the group in Azure then you should take a look at the Azure provisioning logs to see why their group membership was skipped during the provisioning process. You can also take a look at the user provisioning page in Atlassian administration to see if there are any errors logged.

Can't seem to insert anchor links correctly to a point on the same page
Asked by Jack Howard:

Hi guys,

Apologies in advance if this is basics but trying to improve my confluence help page writing skills.

Got quite a complex help guide to write and wanting to use anchors. but using the page <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/anchors-139442.html> to help me.

When in step 2 on the above link, linking an anchor to a confluence page (to a point on the same page) it does not seem to follow.

I can't click 'advanced' when inserting a link.

I highlight the text I want to link to the anchor, then press Ctrl+K. A modal comes up but there is nowhere I can click 'Advanced', as detailed in the instructions above.

Any help appreciated, or any video content would be good too!


Answers:
author: Max Foerster - K15t
body: Hi [@Jack Howard](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4492260) ,

you're looking at the documentation for the Data Center/Server product and should have a look at the corresponding Cloud documentation of adding links:

[Insert links](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-links-and-anchors/#InsertLinks-neweditor)

Adding links looks very different in the new Confluence Cloud editor, so I totally get your confusion. Please read through that page and try adding a link to an anchor again. This time it will work for sure! ;) And please be aware that the link is case-sensitive! Here's a quick example of how it will look like for you probably:

How do I hide working space links (starting with dot) in published version.
Asked by Pooja Bahl:

On our site, when we search for a topic, we mention a keyword and the relevant search appears. I do not want to display working space links while searching.

For Example:

I search with keyword "Create Password". The relevant search displays the following:

Create Password

.Create Password

I do not want the second option (.Create Password) to be displayed as it's a working space link.


Answers:
author: Dominic Lagger
body: Hi [@Pooja Bahl](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4971138)

This is not possible.

I found two feature requests for confluence:

* [CONFSERVER-33161 - Exclude specific pages from search index without restricting access](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-33161)
* [CONFCLOUD-35817 - Exclude specific spaces from search index](http://Exclude specific spaces from search index)

I don't think that they will be implemented soon.

A workaround would be, that you restrict the dot-pages. So for other users, these pages won't be display in the search
