OneDrive and Sharepoint for Confluence permissions
Asked by William Tanner:

We are looking at installing the OneDrive and SharePoint for Confluence plugin (in a data center environment) and need to confirm a few things before we can move forward.

We need confirmation of what level of access users from Confluence have to SharePoint/OneDrive. Are user level access permissions being maintained so users only see those items in Sharepoint/OneDrive that they would see if accessed directly from those applications and not Confluence? Is the plugin using delegated permissions to check access?


Answers:
author: Alexandre Mendes _ikuTeam_
body: Hi William,

Here is Alexandre from ikuTeam, an Atlassian marketplace partner, and I'd like to suggest you try our [**Team Files**](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1216862 "Team Files") app, which is a file manager for Confluence that makes possible attaching files and folders to Confluence pages, one-click editing files and connecting folders from multiple clouds or server storages to build a single source of truth.

In the app admin settings is possible to select edit permissions for SharePoint and OneDrive, which requires that users sign with their Office 365 accounts, so the correct permissions are applied to each user.

Any doubts, just let me know.

Best,

Alexandre

Comments on Bottom of Page
Asked by Paul Streng:

How can we remove Comments made at the bottom of a page?


Answers:
author: Vero Rivas
body: Hi [@Paul Streng](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4442298)

If you mean to delete them once written if you are an administrator, you can delete them.

Now if you mean that they cannot be placed, you will have to do it through the confluence permissions

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/comment-on-pages-and-blog-posts-139483.html>

Cheers

comments: author: Paul Streng
body: Thanks. Yes, delete once written and posted. What steps to take to delete? I don't see that on the page provided above.


author: Bridget Maloney
body: Hi [@Paul Streng](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4442298) ,

People with permissions to delete will see the delete button at the bottom (right next to edit). These people are typically:

* The Confluence Admin
* The person who posted the comment

Can you check and see if you can delete your own comments?

![commentdelete.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/148140i6E6E6661E006FDC1/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "commentdelete.PNG")

If so you can coordinate with your team to delete their own comments. Alternatively you can work with your Confluence admin to delete the comments across all users.

Thank you,  
Bridget

Which account does the 'set password' work on?
Asked by wdonovan:

We have users in both the Confluence internal and our LDAP external directories. One of the users can't login and they are in both directories. If I use the 'set password' link on their user account page, which account gets updated?


Answers:
author: Niranjan
body: Hi [@wdonovan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3958719) ,

The directory order is significant during the authentication of the user, in cases where the same user exists in multiple directories. When a user attempts to log in, the application will search the directories in the order specified, and will use the credentials (password) of the *first occurrence of the user* to validate the login attempt.

Link to Jira Story + subtasks
Asked by Johan Potums:

I list all Jira tasks connected to an Epic. We already do that with the standard /jira gadget on a confluence page.

What I want next is to be able to click open one of the Jira Stories and see - **in the same gadget** - the sublist of subtasks.

Is it possible? Is there maybe a tool on the market for it?


Answers:
author: Fabian Lim
body: Hi Johan,

I will recommend 2 gadgets that we use in our organization, but there could be others in the marketplace.

If you just want hiearchy views, Structure would be my first choice: [https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/34717/structure-project-management-at-scale?hosting=cloud\&tab=overview](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/34717/structure-project-management-at-scale?hosting=cloud&tab=overview)

You can also use EazyB, which gives you functionality to create graphical reports and dashboards as wellI: <https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211051/eazybi-reports-and-charts-for-jira>

Both products provide great support as well within a day.

author: Roberts ???us
body: Hi [@Johan Potums](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4382120) and [@Fabian Lim](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3131564) ,

Thank you, Fabian, for suggesting eazyBI. You can create the desired report in eazyBI for Jira and publish it on a Confluence page. Please read more about that on our documentation page - <https://docs.eazybi.com/eazybijira/publish-reports/publish-in-confluence-pages>.

We recommend using the eazyBI for Confluence app for the best experience. Nevertheless, on Server/Datacenter, it is possible to publish eazyBI for Jira reports in Confluence without it.

You can then create the desired report with the *Issue*dimension "Epic" hierarchy and expand the Epic, Story, and sub-task levels as desired. See a screenshot of such a report published on a Confluence page below:

![Screenshot 2021-06-21 at 13.33.09.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/148243iF1EEDEE13B86A478/image-dimensions/463x296?v=v2 "Screenshot 2021-06-21 at 13.33.09.png")

You can either expand each member or drill into it to reveal members beneath it.

Best,

Confluence link with ////
Asked by Vladislav:

Hello,

In my instance I need to create custom URL with //// like:

test:////C:/

But when I try to create this link i get

test://URL//C:

\*URL=wiki.company.com

Instead. Can some help me with creating proper link?


Answers:
author: Davin Studer
body: You use the web link panel for this. Also, if you are trying to link to a local drive (which is what is look like in your example above) you use the file:/// protocol. One things to note is that protocol only works by default with IE. All other browsers require an extension to get the file protocol to work for security reasons. Also if you are linking to a unc path then you would need to put in file slashed. The first three are for the file protocol and the next two would be for the beginning on the UNC path ... if indeed you are trying to use the file protocol. Regardless the Web link panel is where you need to go put in a link like that.

comments: author: Davin Studer
body: After writing that I realized I'm getting the same thing if I use a protocol other than file. So, I guess I would have to revise my answer to say that you would probably need to create a user macro to do this as Confluence is changing the URL and I don't think there is a way to override that.


author: Vladislav
body: Thank you for your answer, I will try this, may you advise guide about user macro?

Office Excel Macro / page loading issue when calling an xls stored on another page
Asked by Jean de Cornulier:

I have an excel file stored on space S1 page P1.

I want to use that same Excel file to display table / chart on space S1 page P2.

Excel macro seems to be the right solution as I can select a source from another page. The content that I can see on the preview window is the expected content (see img below)

![confluence_1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/147962i07E4BE10E4AA3A22/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "confluence_1.png")

However when I update the page with my Macro, it does not load properly (loading icon keep spining - see img below)

Answers:
author: Jean de Cornulier
body: We found a workaround to our problem

On page P1 (where the xls is stored) :

1. we call : MultiExcerpt Macro

2. we embed : Office Excel Macro in the Multi Excerpt

Then on page P2,

3. We call the MultiExcerpt using "MultiExcerpt Macro include"


author: Davin Studer
body: A couple of things to try.

1. Hit F12 in your browser to bring up the developer tools. Check the console tab and see if there are any errors reported.
2. Do you have an add blocker extension in your browser. I've seen some that have blocked Atlassian functionality such that asynchronous code(stuff that happens after the page has loaded) doesn't get run correctly. Maybe add a site exception for the ad blocker if you have one.

comments: author: Jean de Cornulier
body: Hi, thank you for your answer.

1. Unfortunately I cannot access the developer tools as it has been blocked by my Organisation. I will request it but it might take few days and the result is not guaranteed :)

2. I checked and can confirm that I have no add blocker extension

We will see if we have other recommandation to follow in the meantime.

Email the contents of a newly created Trello board to a list of emails
Asked by Toastmasters Divison S District 80:

I have attempted to use Zapier to link the creation of a Trello board with the sending of a single Mailchimp campaign, but it does not work beyond the first use, because then the Mailchimp campaign would be concluded.

Is there a simpler way to do this? There just needs to be a way for someone to subscribe to a mailing list, and then whenever a Trello board is created in a specific list on a specific board, the contents of the Trello board, as well as the URL for accessing the Trello board is sent to the mailing list.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Toastmasters Divison S District 80](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2827510) when you say board do you mean card? So the contents of the card is being sent to a mailing list when created?

Also, you said "URL for accessing the Trello board is sent to the mailing list", did you mean URL for the card?

So you want to be able to create a new card (in a specific list/board) and have the description of that card sent to a mailing list along with a link to the card?

comments: author: Toastmasters Divison S District 80
body: Yes, thats right! I meant card.

The card is actually already auto generated whenever someone fills up a Google form of mine. I set up a Zapier zap to create a Trello card whenever there is a new entry in the Google form responses spreadsheet.

So my workflow would actually be:

1. Someone fills up a Google form
2. The response gets logged in a Google Sheets response form. Zapier senses a response, and uploads the content of the response onto a Trello card in a specific list in a board. (I have one board, with multiple lists)
3. I want to have a mailing list of subscribers to receive an email notification whenever there is a new Trello card in a specific lists. (Pity Trello doesnt have an option to get non-Trello users to receive email notifications about a card/ list/ board..)

I'm missing step 3.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Toastmasters Divison S District 80](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2827510) okay and is it the description that you want sent in the email? Also, unless the board is public, they won't be able to see it without being members of Trello and/or the board anyway.

What are the email recipients going to do when they receive the email?

Hey, guys. You created a really cool platform. Although I am Russian, we always something-not enough. Our mentality is like this. In short, guys. Everything works great. But it would be even cooler if you added the ability to add notes to the platform when there is no Internet. I see this case. I take the subway or walk down the street. I suddenly devotes cool idea I need to record. I want to put a new card in your program. I do not have the Internet, so the information on the computer will not be updated. If you modify it will be like this: I'm going devotes me the idea. I bring it through the mobile application of the Internet I do not. I come to a zone where there is an intrenet. And everything I wrote in the application is transferred automatically when you connect to the network or on request. If I will modify everything in their company will tell cocoa you cool platform.

How to create a private copy of a team board?
Asked by Melanie Craig:

Hi there - I've been added to a board which is used for new starters, and contains checklists to go through what we need to do. It is a shared board, but I would like to create a private copy of it so I can tick off the checkboxes as I complete them.

If you click on that you will see the option for "no team", then keep the option of private, and then click create board. You will then have your own private board.

Blacklisted email?
Asked by Francesca Vimercati:

Hello support,

I registered a new profile in Trello for a colleague about a couple of weeks ago.

However, she has never received any confirmation email. We have tried many times to have the email sent again (also with the link <https://trello.com/resendValidate>) but it did not work.

The email address had been created not long before the creation of the Trello profile, which means that it might not have been active yet when the confirmation email was sent by Trello.

I wonder if this may have caused an error which put the email automatically in a blacklist on Trello's server.

I sent a message using the contact form but was never contacted by Trello support.  

Can anybody help?

Thanks in advance!
