The page I am trying to edit is unrestricted but still doesn't allow me to make changes

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

In what way are you not allowed to make changes?

Do you not see the pencil icon for opening the page in Edit mode?

That could be due to either page restrictions on that specific page or a page higher in the page tree, or it could be due to your permissions for that space.

Page restrictions can be changed by a user who has edit permissions for the page where the restrictions have been set.

Space permission issue can be addressed by the Administrators for that space.


author: Rodrigo
body: Good day [@David Sheptovitsky](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5346108), and welcome as well to the Atlassian Community!

Adding to the list of useful responses, I've found something similar in these cases:

* Were the pages you attempted to edit migrated?
  * If so, for some reason (even if you are a product admin), you must give your username edit permissions (even if your role already has them).
* Check parent page permissions.
  * Shame to say this was a hard lesson for me to learn.

Best of luck!

Solution for Combining Table Data from Multiple Tables
Asked by Caleb Schmidt:

I am looking for a free solution in Confluence that would allow me to combine table data from multiple child pages into one filterable/exportable table on a parent page. I have attempted using the excerpt macro, but it does not allow for me to combine the data into one table for easy filtering/export.

For example, I have three child pages that list whether a client has a feature on/off. I want to be able to display the information on the patient page for quick filtering to determine which of the child pages has the listed information on/off.

Confluence updrage: Linux LTS 8.5.2 Version

Check if the trigger**\[dbo\].denormalised_space_permission_trigger** exists in your database and if it does maybe it's worth trying to drop it, like

Make sure you have a backup before you try anything. Also maybe the best solution here is to contact the Atlassian Support Team.

Table Charts and Filter -Chart from Table for Multiple Entries
Asked by Craig.Harley:

I am trying to configure a chart to to display an entry count

This works fine when i have a single entry per field, but not when I have multiple values per field.

In the example below I would expect to see 3 entries in the PIE chart, with the following values

Adhoc Payee = 4

Direct Debit = 1

Standing Order = 1

![mult entries.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/287525i75B836AA2FCD2C1E/image-dimensions/99x402?v=v2 "mult entries.PNG")

However what I actually get is 2 entries

Adhoc Payee = 3

Adhoc Payee, Direct Debit, Standing Order = 1

I have managed to get this working for the Filter macro (showing only single entries) by using the a drop down filter and setting the cell value delimiter for it to an apostrophe. However cannot seem to get the same thing working for the chart side


Answers:
author: Stiltsoft support
body: Hi [@Craig.Harley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4615003) ,

Please use the Pivot Table macro before the Chart from Table macro: visit the Options tab and set the Cell value delimiter as "," for the example from your screenshot.

Then you'll be able to count your entries correctly and your chart will be created using this aggregated table.

Receive feedback from users on a set of pages

Pages not appearing when clicking label
Asked by Jason Lansdowne:

I am using the LabelsList macro to display all labels within my team's spaces.

Normally, clicking on a label displays all the pages in which that label appears. However, there are many instances where I click on the label and it shows zero pages that contain the label. ![labels.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/287504iE2425BE9B343081C/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "labels.png")

author: Andrii Maliuta
body: Hello [@Jason Lansdowne](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5055977) ,

Such a behavior can be when the content is newly created, but indexing is quesued and not performed quickly, so the search engine just does not know about these pages.

Content re-indexing should solve the problem, but please note that if you have a lot of content in Confluence, it will take a lot of time and hardware resources.

comments: author: Jason Lansdowne
body: Hi Andrii,

Thanks for the reply. I have asked my support team how often the pages are re-indexed, because many of these missing pages are weeks if not months old.

Answers:

Please check the below document for what data/content is get migrated by Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant

<https://support.atlassian.com/migration/docs/what-migrates-with-the-confluence-cloud-migration-assistant/>

If you sure that content moved to trash are no longer required in future it's better to delete them before the migration, if you not sure then either migrate them as well and later delete them in Cloud so that you will have a backup of those data in server instance which you can restore in test instance if anyone requested the same in future or migrate all these trash pages to the new Space in server and have space export of that space as a backup instead of having whole instance.

How to access Confluence use atlassian-python-api and a Personal Access Token
Asked by nirabe:

I can use the following for basic auth:

```
from atlassian import Confluence

confluence = Confluence(url='https://internalconfluenceurl.com', username = 'myusername', password='mypassword')
```

This also works if I use an API token value instead of password.

How do I alter this to use a Personal Access Token (as created within Confluence) instead? I tried substituting that in for the password, but it gives an error.

Is there a further authentication step that I am missing? I have managed to do something similar in Jira, but the same approach does not work for Confluence.


Answers:
author: nirabe
body: I found a different approach:

```
import requests

response = requests.post(base_url, data=page_data_json, headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {pat}',"Accept": "application/json",'Content-Type': 'application/json'})

if response.status_code == 200:
print("Child page created successfully")
else:
print("Failed to create the child page. Status code:", response.status_code)
```

It is not quite as convenient as using the inbuilt Confluence function, but it seems to work.


author: GMK
body: Hello All,

First of all it is worth noting **atlassian-python-ap**i is an open source project, it is not owned/maintained by Atlassian.

You can use personal assess token with this library, the only difference is in syntax between cloud and data-center:

```
from atlassian import Jira
# To be used with Jira cloud
jira_cloud = Jira(url="<url>", username="username", password="password")

# Use with data-center
jira_dc = Jira(url="url", token="<token>>")
```

Yes, I had seen the link you shared. I cannot use cURL. There have been some suggestions of using *requests* instead.

I may go down this route, but it seems much more complicated than the approach for Jira, which is odd.

filter recently updates starting after one date
Asked by Jose Palanca:

Hi,

is there a way to filter the results of the "Recently Updated" macro? I would like to show updates done after a fix date where the content was published to the company.

We are using Confluence 8.5.1.

I do not find a filter that helps me to limit the results to changes done after Sep 30th.

Thank you for your help


Answers:
author: Cl?mentine Arce
body: Hello Jose,

I do not think this is possible using the "Recently updated" macro.

However, the add-on Refined has a macro called "Activity stream" which can do what you are looking for. To show content updated after a specific date, the use of a CQL in the macro Activity Stream seems to be the most adequate choice.

Assuming you use the configuration by default for the "Recently updated" macro, here are the steps to configure the macro from Refined (using the example of a space called ABC):

1. Give a title to the macro in the first field of the configuration panel (for example: "Updated After 2023/09/30")
2. In the CQL field of the configuration panel, add a CQL specifying the following clauses (each separated by the AND operator):
   1. The space(s) the CQL should return results from (for example for a space with the space key ABC use: space = ABC)
   2. lastmodified \>= 2023-09-30
   3. The contributor(s) the CQL should return results for (for example, if you wish to only see your own activity after September 30th, use: contributor = currentUser())

The example CQL (written in the "CQL" field of the macro configuration panel) is thus: space = ABC AND lastmodified \>= 2023-09-30 AND contributor = currentUser()

![image-2023-12-1_16-47-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/295302i0FE88A64C5FACC1E/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image-2023-12-1_16-47-1.png") ![image-2023-12-1_16-47-28.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/295303i176105CB3F6D064C/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image-2023-12-1_16-47-28.png") ![image-2023-12-1_16-47-43.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/295304i6E4CCBDE92830516/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image-2023-12-1_16-47-43.png")

You could add other clauses in the CQL to further refine the results it would return, but that configuration is up to you depending on what you want to display!

Note that using a CQL will ignore all other fields completed in the configuration panel of the macro, except for the title which will be displayed in the page once it is published.

I hope this helps!

Templates
Asked by Melissa Davison:

I am trying to create a template with pre-built tasks so that when we open a new case at our firm, we can assign the same task list every time we open a certain type of case (i.e. we assign a "PI Task List" every time we open a new personal injury file). I see that Trello has templates we can use from the web, but I want to customize and build my own template, with pre-assembled tasks, so that I don't have to re-create the template/task list every time I open a new matter. Is it possible? If so can someone tell me how to do it?


Answers:
author: Dreamsuite Mike
body: Hi [@Melissa Davison](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5212540)

Welcome to the community. This can be done via automation. I have a solution that handles this very case by holding template checklists in a header card and uses automation similar to this

"when a card is added to a list {listname}, lookup a card called {listname} and add the checklist {listnmame} Tasks to the card"

You can also set an automation to move the card to the next list, mark as complete or remove the checklist when the checklist is complete
Can Trello make it easier to change a card cover and make them more visible + smaller?
Asked by Michael Delfausse:

I understand that Trello doesn't want us to use ad-ons to change the entire card color but can Trello please make it easier to autofill?

Here's my wishlist:

* Make a quick option of changing the entire card color instead of having to choose between the top margin and a total fill. In a pinch, make the total fill first and the top margin second.

* Make the card colors lighter (more like pastels) so that you no longer have to bold the text.

* Make the filled card smaller so that you can see more cards per list (I guess this means getting rid of the top margin formatting).

This way it's easier to fill a card, see a card and fit more cards on a list.

Thanks!
