youngmon/atlassian-qna huggingface dataset:
connecting external data sources (SQLLite, MySQL) to Confluence pages
Asked by Roberto Lofaro:

for a set of publication projects I have been working on since 2019 (see [datasets since 2019](https://robertolofaro.com/datasets) ), would like to integrate within Confluence pages some material.

Generally, the material I prepare is detailed as files on either Kaggle or GitHub, but prepare also SQLLite databases.

What would be the best way to connect SQLLite databases (or even MySQL remote databases) to Confluence pages?

If there is no option, I might actually start working on something- but I have limited spare time, so could take a while.

Thanks

another option to look at is [External Data for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221733/external-data-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) which can handle MySQL database connections among others. There is no specific SQLLite integration though.

The App is free for Instances up to 10 users so I would recommend you try it out before building something on your own.

Hope this helps,

body: Hey [@Roberto Lofaro](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4344226),

It sounds like you want to display data from your SQLLite database in your Confluence page? If that's the case [PocketQuery for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211199) could likely do what you want. I'm not sure whether it specifically supports SQLite, but if it doesn't, maybe one of the other drivers could be used to connect it? I'm pretty sure [@Georg Schmidl ?](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4528235) will know the answer to that. :)

Cheers,

Do users need access to Jira when viewing an embedded Advance Road Map within a Confluence page?
Asked by Alex Finch:

Internally we use Confluence pages to provide status updates to both leadership groups and steering committees.  

I recently had a stakeholder saying that he was unable to view the Advance Roadmap, his user was set up to only access Confluence, rather than having access to Jira as well.  

Do users need to have access to both Jira and Confluence in order to view embedded advance road maps (and simple road maps as well for that matter), this doesn't make a huge amount of sense to me as they are simply looking at the "view" I have created for them, as opposed to looking through backlogs, kanbans etc.  

Thanks in advance!


Answers:
author: Pramodh M
body: [@Alex Finch](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4759101)

Yes Users need access to Jira, meaning they should have a license in Jira to view the data of any sort (Jira issue macro, reports, advanced roadmaps) from Jira

You could set up Confluence Space to have the access to all site users, in this case, you need a Jira license and not a Confluence license for users who need to see advanced roadmaps data

Thanks

author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@yifan Hu](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3817739) ,

probably your gliffy license was expired before the upgrade. Licenses, often, are perpetual so you can continue to use apps after expiration but without support and upgrade availability.

Probably, you upgraded the app due to Confluence upgrade and then, in that new version, app is no more licensed.

Please open a support request to Gliffy team <https://www.gliffy.com/support/request-support>

Project Status Summary
Asked by Ben Wells:

Hi All,

I am new to Confluence and hoping to get some help. I am looking at introducing confluence into my team as the primary project management tool. One question I have before talking tot he team is-

Is there a template/ table/way to create a dashboard/ page/ table that can give you overall summary of current project status'

How many projects are currently- in progress, on hold, overdue....

Thanks

Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Ben Wells](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4781792) ,

You may also consider using additional apps to amplify standard Confluence tools.

For example, we can suggest trying our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community) add-on.

Its [Table Excerpt/Table Excerpt Include](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Excerpt+and+Table+Excerpt+Include+macros?utm_source=atl_community) macros allow you to collect multiple-row tables (the native Page Properties Report macro collects only one-row tables) and further filter them, aggregate and visualize.

Our macros also support the Jira Issues macro and you'll be able to create [live Jira dashboards](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+the+app+with+Jira+Issues?utm_source=atl_community) right in Confluence.

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

To answer your question, yes, there is a way to do that. You can create custom templates that have predefined formatting and macros.

In your use case, I would use the Page Properties macro in the template. In the examples in the documentation, there is a very similar type of use case to yours.

<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-page-properties-macro/>

Here is some good documentation as well: <https://atlasauthority.com/blog/how-to-use-page-properties-macros-atlassian-confluence/>

What is this?
Asked by Tanya Edward:

I don't know what any of this is, I received an email telling me my team was waiting for me on confluence so me being both curious and nosy by nature, clicked the link on the email and followed a few more and now I'm here and I don't know why.


Answers:

body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

This site here is a place where people using Atlassian stuff get together to talk and ask questions. The email you had was from your organisation's Confluence (Confluence is an Atlassian service), and is intended to invite you to look at what other people in your organisation are writing in it.

I think you have clicked on "help with Confluence in general" instead of "help with this system", and that lands you in the community.

I would recommend asking the people who invited you for help with your Confluence and why they have invited you.

If you are the admin of the instance, you will get emails when someone joins the instance.

If you need to get support on the Atlassian stack of tools or need to share knowledge, you can use this platform.

Change direction specific page
Asked by me:

How can i change direction of specific page (using modify storage format) to enable RTL on that page?

FYI:don't want to enable rtl on whole space!

any idea?

Thanks


Answers:
author: David at David Simpson Apps
body: ```
As you?re on server/DC, this could be done with a user macro that adds some CSS:

<style> #content {direction: rtl; }</style>

This should add the rtl direction on just the page content rather than the whole of the Confluence UI.

This will swap the direction as required.

How do I hide submission results?
Asked by Peter Liu:

I received an email from a supervisor of a different branch requesting "can we hide the submission results?". I tried to hide the results using table filter, but I had no success.

![Table Filter.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/185768i0A8AD350AE5E977E/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Table Filter.jpg")![submission results.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/185769i284FFAFF6493DF23/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "submission results.jpg")


Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Peter Liu](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4713556) ,

As you've mentioned our [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/Table+filtration?utm_source=atl_community) macro, I can say that it should be compatible with the TableView macro.

You'll be able to achieve two cases with it:

1. Filter your table by names/codes/etc. (set common or inversed filters): here we talk about hiding the unwanted rows.

2. Hide the unwanted columns (you want to hide the third one with the list of courses, I assume). Here is the algorithm how to do it.

Go to the Table Filter macro settings -\> Filters tab and check the Hide columns option.

![Tue 2-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/185819iCD8843430C40024F/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Tue 2-1.png")

Then go to the Filtration tab -\> Set filters' default values and choose which columns you want to hide (Start and End for my example).

![Tue 2-3.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/185822i5CF03514F662CF68/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Tue 2-3.png")

Save the changes and preview the result:

If these two cases don't suit you, please clarify the issue, we'll try to help.

Adding JIRA Kanban to Confluence and Bringing in JIRA Agile Reports
Asked by Andrei Antonescu:

We have the Confluence Cloud version and we have both Confluence and JIRA linked with an application link. We want to import a Jira kanban board to Confluence and also add in reports from Jira.

The following two links seemed helpful, but I realized they are only for the on-prem/server versions of Confluence and don't apply to us:

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/how-to-add-a-jira-kanban-board-to-a-confluence-page-959798689.html>

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/how-to-bring-jira-and-jira-agile-reports-into-confluence-779163801.html>

I'm still new to this all, but it looks like I can't access a list of gadgets, if that even applies to the cloud version. I heard they may be automatically enabled if the applications are linked? Or that a URL from Jira is needed? When looking for macros to install, a search for Agile Wallboard yields nothing. I also don't have an option for External Gadgets or anything. I am a (recently made) admin on our Confluence.

Any help in pointing me in the right direction is appreciated. Thanks.

System: E-manage - Topic: Journal Cost Reporting
Asked by KATIA GIACON ABBONDATI:

I found on Confluence a guide on how to create journal costs in e-manage. However, there is nothing about obtaining reports to review those journal costs to ensure they are correct. Going project by project is just too manual and tedious.

Since the posting has a lot of information, I want to be able to see information such as the date the journal cost was created, amounts for each entry and the user who created them.

It seems unbelievable to me, the system would not have such a report when all the information is being input.

comments: author: KATIA GIACON ABBONDATI
body: Hi Martins,

Here it is.

<https://emanageone.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HelpGuide/pages/228458591/Journal+Cost>

But please be aware this is just how to do it. (by entering these costs, you will be able to see costs applied to the Final Profit tab of e-manage). Unfortunately, there are no reports to check and review all the journal entries done in a period of time, which is very frustrating when you have a team doing the entries and you need to review their work.

I hope this link helps you :)

Katia


author: M?rti?? Vanags
body: Thanks,

It seems to me that emanageone is the smart system itself and the only connection to Confluence whatsoever is that they use Confluence Cloud from Atlassian portfolio for their documentation pages but I don't find on this documentation page (you provided) pages you provided how you can publish journal entries on Confluence pages.

Perhaps you can reach out to emanageone support and ask for reporting possibilities for journal entries: <https://emanageone.com/contact-support/>

Is there any way to automate data exporting from trello to excel?
Asked by Gushan Janith:

designing a dashboard in Excel using data extracted from trello and required to make this process automated. (The export data feature in trello can only be used to extract the past data?)


Answers:
author: Torben_trello
body: Hi there,

The export in Trello will just export the board at the current state.

You can automate this process by using an undocumented API feature. If you're unfamiliar with the API, you can read more at <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello>. For a Python example of exporting your organization's data via the API, see [https://github.com/bentleycook/trello-python-demo/blob/master/demo_bc_org_backup.py](https://github.com/bmccormack/trello-python-demo/blob/master/demo_bc_org_backup.py)

Another option might be using a 3rd party service like Zapier to keep data from Trello in sync with the other service: <https://zapier.com/apps/trello/integrations>
