author: Diego
body: Hello there!

The usage of page anchors is quite common and can help users to orchestrate how they navigate in pages throughout the application. ++*Currently, free form anchors are not available for Confluence Cloud. What we currently have are Linkable Headings.*++

For us to create an anchor to a header, we must follow this step by step:
> 1. *Create a new page*
> 2. *Create a header*
> 3. *Publish the page*
> 4. *Click the chain icon to the left side of your header*
> 5. *The copied link is an anchor that directs the user straight into that header*

You can check more about this feature and a few others under this post, Bimpe:
> * ++**[\[Atlassian Community\] Fresh, full-width, and colorful new features](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Fresh-full-width-and-colorful-new-features/ba-p/1191204)**++

Currently, there is a feature request for free form anchors in Confluence Cloud. Here, take a look:
> * ++**[\[Confluence Cloud\]\[CONFCLOUD-69198\] Allow Anchors to be specified anywhere in a page](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-69198)**++

I hope this shines some light into your issue, [@Bimpe](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2525131) ! Looking forward to your reply.

Which Macro?
Asked by Jennifer McNeal:

I have a link from survey monkey that links to a webpage that displays my survey data analytics on a dashboard. Is there a way to embed this link to display the webpage on confluence? If so, which macro do I utilize?


Answers:
author: Dario B
body: Hello [@Jennifer McNeal](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3769027) ,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I believe this is a question for Confluence Cloud even if it was mistakenly added to the marketplace questions. I have moved it to the Confluence Cloud collection, please let me know if this is wrong.

Also, if the data is displayed on a webpage, you may want to use the [iFrame macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/iframe-macro-950276528.html) to embed that page in a Confluence page.
> To add the iframe macro to a page you're editing:
>
> 1. Tap **+** \> **Other macros** or type **? + ? + A** to open the macro browser.
> 2. Type "iframe" in the search box, then select the macro from the results.
> 3. Enter the URL of the website you'd like to embed, then tap **Save**.

Please review below page for more details:

Link checker tool
Asked by Jennifer Choban:

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a tool that can crawl through a Confluence space and check links? I need an easy way to check for links that are pointing to pages in the same space vs those that are pointing to an archived space.

Thanks,

Jenny


Answers:
author: Dominic Lagger
body: Hi [@Jennifer Choban](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1346185)

Do you need to check just a couple of pages or hundreds?

If you just need to check some pages, you can go to this page and check the incoming links.

![incoming links.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/83665i18789903288E0810/image-dimensions/361x296?v=v2 "incoming links.png")

If you have to check multiple pages, I doesn't know any tool for this.

Regards, Dominic

comments: author: Jennifer Choban
body: Thanks. I was hoping there was a tool for grabbing the links from all pages in the space, but I'll go through page by page.


author: Robert Reiner _smartics_
body: There is a ticket you may want to consider to vote for:

* Cloud version: <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-65867>
* Server version: <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-55958>

For Confluence Server there is also a knowledge base article [Confluence - How to Validate Links](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-how-to-validate-links-952603062.html).

comments: author: Jennifer Choban
body: Thanks, Robert.


author: RPT Admin
body: I'm not aware of any tool that will do this for Confluence Cloud. I'm facing a similar situation - currently checking pages one by one.

Page Information is the fastest way to identify where your links are going, as it sorts your links into groups according to whether they're internal/external and which space they link to.

Confluence 6.15.2 Move Page from one space to another
Asked by Sam:

Whenever I use the "Move" feature that appears when clicking on the three dots in the upper right hand corner, I can't move a page from its current space to a different space. Although I found a workaround for this issue by copying the page to the other space, my colleague tells me that the "Move" feature used to let him do this. Can you explain why this feature won't move a page to a different space?


Answers:
author: JP _AC Bielefeld Leader_
body: Do you have DELETE rights on the origin space. Moving a page copies the page from space A to B and afterwards DELETES the page from space A.

Yes I do have permission to delete pages on the origin space.

rest api: access to new page (unpublished, never published) forbidden 403
Asked by Jan Kalendovsk?:

Hello, I want to work with attachments - via REST API - at new confluence page. (Never published.)

URL of such page:

```
https://jankalendovskymorosystems.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/EASYMINDCL/pages/edit-v2/109215748?draftShareId=c4650c6d-8cc9-4d45-bb92-114987f26614
```

Result - http 403 - forbidden. (Or 404 not found.)

I tried:

*POST /rest/api/content/109215748/child/attachment?status=draft* ... 403 forbidden  
*POST /rest/api/content/109215748/child/attachment* ... 404 not found  
*GET /rest/api/content/109215748?status=draft* ... 403 forbidden  
*GET /rest/api/content/109215748* ... 404 not found  
*GET /rest/api/content/109215748/child/attachment?filename=xxx* ... 403 forbidden  
*GET /rest/api/content/109215748/child/attachment?filename=xxx\&status=draft* ... 403 forbidden

We call confluence REST API from addon running in Tomcat - signing via JWT.

```
"scopes": ["read", "write", "delete"]
```

Also tried with

```
"scopes": ["admin"]
```

The same calls on published page works fine:

*GET /rest/api/content/65538/child/attachment?filename=xxx* ... OK http 200  
*GET /rest/api/content/65538/child/attachment?filename=xxx\&status=draft* ... OK http 200  

Both pages (unpublished and published) where created by myself via "+" (blueprint dialog) as empty. (I filled a caption and put a simple sentence.)

More over, after I have published the page 109215748, the same REST APIs started to work.

-----

++Usecase++:

We are developing plugin Xyz for cloud. (There is already working Xyz for server Confluence.)

The plugin lets users to save data. Data is saved as confluence attachment.

The plugin also lets users to save data at new - never published page.  

The plugin Xyz for server-confluence works fine - saving attachment at unpublished page works.  
I would like the plugin Xyz for cloud to work fine as well.

-----

Can you help me?


Answers:
author: Vojt?ch Schlemmer
body: For anyone still struggling with this: we managed to retrieve an unpublished page (Draft) by making a user impersonated call (<https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/user-impersonation-for-connect-apps/>) instead of JWT. Also manipulating with attachments works fine with user impersonation as soon as you append \`status=draft\` to the url.

Answers:
author: Dario B
body: Hi [@????_?????????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3768814) ,

The possibility to add comments while saving a page has not been added to the new editor yet, but we have the below feature request open in our system for this:

* [\[CONFCLOUD-65695\] Bring back the "what's changed" comment box](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-65695)

As you can read in today's status update, the feature is in our roadmap. However, not having an ETA for this, we advise to follow the above ticket (vote for it and set yourself as a watcher so that you will be updated on any progress) and keep on using the old editor in the meanwhile:
> Thanks for all the feedback on this ticket. Given the amount of requests we've started to explore what a potential quick win may look like to re-introduce this. That being said, we still can't guarantee a time frame for this - we will make sure to update this ticket as we know more on our end.
>
> In the meantime, if you have the legacy template available - which most of you should have - you can keep using that to create new pages and still keep using this feature. If you don't have that template, you can [reach out to support](https://support.atlassian.com/contact "Follow link") and we'll be happy to enable it for you.

I hope this helps.

Problem with screenshots uploaded to the Confluence page earlier
Asked by Zhanna_Guliya:

We have at least 2 cases when screenshots uploaded earlier to the Confluence page in our Space then have been changed itself to another (without somebody's participation).  
We don't know from where Confluence takes these new ones.  
And moreover, at this moment they have been changed in ALL previous page versions as well.

Anybody knows what can be the reason of it?   
And how can we get the previous version of the page in this case?

author: JP _AC Bielefeld Leader_
body: Hi,

same screenshot filename? Please check the attachments of the page \& the attachment hierarchy. Maybe you'll find the older screenshots in an older version of the attachment.

We have a daily health check script to run, which run even on weekends. But,we have found that the maximum number of pages we can create in a under that particular page is 25.

Is there a way we can increase the soft limit of this. The hierarchy is :-

Parent_Dir\>ALH\>DCFC\>2020\>Feb\>

Under Feb page we are generating pages everyday and if the page limit exceeds 25, the result is not updated as no permission/access to create more pages than the limit.

How to disable baseURL for newer confluence
Asked by Masaru Suzuoki:

Hi,  

i was looking on how to disable baseURL for newer confluence version.  
for version 6 there is a way (<https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/can-t-check-base-url-warning-in-confluence-6-6-or-later-939718433.html>)  

but for newer confluence like what we use 7.3.1. there is no disable option for baseURL.  

we need this as we are behind a proxy (cloudflare)  

any help is appreciated. thanks


Answers:
author: James Ponting
body: Hey Masaru,

I know this is an older question, but I wanted to provide an answer for anyone else who comes across it.

Defining a base URL is required for using Confluence behind a reverse proxy or load balancer. This configuration allows you to set the public facing URL that is used to contact the reverse proxy forwarding requests to Confluence.

The original question links to a health check function in Confluence that checks whether the URL being used to access Confluence in the browser matches the base URL configured in Confluence. This particular health check error will only appear if the configuration is in the Tomcat connector is somehow incorrect (usually malformed or incomplete).

The health check attempts to build the proper configuration values for the Tomcat connector using the URL being used to access Confluence and provides them in the pop-out.

For users encountering this issue, I'd suggest reviewing the [Proxy and HTTPs Setup for Confluence](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/proxy-and-https-setup-for-confluence-950286281.html) guide to ensure your configuration is correct.

This health check should not be ignored.

Hopefully this helps.

Thanks,

body: Hello Vladimir,

My apologies for the delay in responding to you on this. Our Community is largely English-speaking, so many people who do not understand Russian weren't able to answer your question.

I've translated to English, and from what I understand, you want to know how to create a placeholder - or an undefined page. As a reference, [this is what an undefined page link](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/undefined-page-links-139580.html) is defined as in Confluence Server. (Note the documentation does **not** apply for Cloud, it's an example of the feature as it exists in Server.)

As for Cloud, I'm happy to tell you that we do have this in our upcoming roadmap!

* [Confluence Cloud Editor Roadmap](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/confluence-cloud-editor-roadmap-967314556.html)

You can follow the progress of its implementation below:

* [CONFCLOUD-67129](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-67129) *Link to an undefined page (a page that doesn't exist yet)*

I hope that helps, but do let me know if you have any trouble or questions.

Unable to @ a person in Confluence cloud
Asked by Warran Mavrodaris:

It appears I have lost the ability to @ Mention in Confluence. I have JIRA Admin rights and so have all the permissions required. However no one can Mention me on a confluence space and I cannot mention anyone else.

**Interestingly I can mention teams but not individuals.**

Everything works as normal in JIRA it is only confluence where I have this issue.

The only thing I can think of was I signed into Confluence on another browser and shortly after that I noticed the mention issue. I don't think it is a browser issue as cookies/data and all that cleared and still no difference. Been a month now.

Does anyone have any ideas why this has happened and more importantly, how do I fix it?


Answers:
author: Dan Winkler
body: [@Warran Mavrodaris](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3431006) I had a similar situation back in October 2019. I submitted it as an issue Atlassian's Support page, and it was fixed in two days. Their support, as usual, was terrific.

Their support explained that this was probably related to a known issue - <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ID-7089>

They implemented a workaround that addressed the problem, and I haven't encountered it since.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions of me, but I'd go to Support, because I think they'll be able to help you.

Access Confluence Page Data
Asked by Harpreet Singh:

Hi,

I am trying to access confluence page data using below rest api end point

using postman tool just to test what is the response.

I am getting 404 status code.

I have also tried

[https://xxxxxx.atlassian.net/confluence/rest/api/content?type=blogpost\&start=0](https://xxxxxx.atlassian.net/confluence/rest/api/content?type=blogpost&start=0) \&limit=10\&expand=space,history,body.view,metadata.labels

.

Doesn't seems like with authentication issue.

Am i doing something wrong? Please advise.

Thanks.


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hi Harpreet,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you.

The 404 error means nothing exists at that location. Probably because you're not including "wiki" in the URL:

[Confluence Cloud REST API Example GET](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/#api-api-content-get)

*Example:*

```
GET /wiki/rest/api/content
```

Make sure you're using the above documentation to build your queries accurately. Please note that you also do need to authenticate via the Postman tool in order to view pages that are not available publicly.

If you continue to have issues, please let me know the full call you're making and the response.

Regards,

Shannon
