Can I add a color to a cell in a Database?
Asked by Maurice del Prado:

I am starting to use the new Confluence Database feature.

I suspect the answer to my question is no, but I would like to add it as a request for the future.

Thanks.

How can I let guests use my add-on APP
Asked by Yihong Zhang:

I invite 2 guest user to my space?but they can't use my add-on APP?DrawIO??is there a way fix this?


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Yihong Zhang](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4481305) and Welcome to the Community.

It depends on what the app touches on Confluence.

For example, I had a guest with edit rights in Space A, they were able to use a workflow app and the status of the page changed.

However, as the workflow app triggered the publishing app, which synced to content to Space B, the publishing process failed because a guest can only access once space at a time and thus they did not have necessary permissions to access (nevermind to modify) Space B.

Some apps give access to anyone from the default admin group. Some allow you to create a dedicated, app specific user group to which you can add individuals.

The best option is to read the docs or contact the vendor app directly if you're looking to allow/ban guests.

Unable to fetch Restricted pages via API (atlassian connect app)
Asked by Backup Test:

Hi,

I'm developing API integration via Atlassian Connect flow for Confluence cloud.

I'm using Search Content API Request (<https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/api-group-search/#api-group-search>) to fetch ALL pages I have for specific Space.

I noticed that if specific page has content restriction (to allow editing for my user only), I won't see it via API.

Is there a way how to fetch restricted pages if my current user has access to it?

Thanks!

Give Edit permission to Confiform while restrict edit page to limited user
Asked by Dhiraj Kr_ Gupta:

There are multiple Confiform record which has also Edit option working fine. But when I have applied restriction everyone can view and Some user can edit, the Edit option became extinct.

I want that users can edit the Confiform records but only specified users can edit the page. Restricting edit to users also made the edit button for Confiform records invisible.

ConfiForm Import API wrong Data Format
Asked by Maximilian Herbert:

Hey there,

so I have the following setup:

I have a new Field ?Test" in my Form ?Main". It's a Smart Dropdown field pointing on another form (with 2 values(answer1 and answer2)

I want to use the import api to give all of my existing entries in Form Main (\~80) a value for this field (either answer1 or answer2)

This works perfectly fine but there is one thing that does not work: if I want to filter the values in a table view it does not show the values correctly.   
e.G Filter is: !Test: answer1 but it still shows every entry.   
the thing is if I create a new entry and select the value answer1 in the form, it suddenly works.   

does the API import a wrong ?format"? Anyone got a clue ?

Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Hi

When you import your data into the smart field - do you import an UUID of the record it is linked to?

Alex

comments: author: Maximilian Herbert
body: Yes. I import the record id


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: record id or id?

How does it look like?


author: Maximilian Herbert
body: ah sorry - my fault. It's the ID.

E.g.

0e2100e0-4kei7-b400-7c1947e9kdb


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: This looks right. Hard to tell really from here then what can be wrong

You can take a look at the RAW dataset export and see how the value differs from what you have imported with the one that you entered manually


author: Maximilian Herbert
body: So I just compared it in the RAW dataset.  
Honestly it looks exactly the same. Just as in the .XLS

I have a screenshot of the unfiltered database of the form.

Here you see 2 entries of the row that are **not** imported.

![Screenshot_Import_Confiform.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/330812iA562924A9AA94CD0/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot_Import_Confiform.png")

In the next picture you see two of the imported entries. As you see they differ from the ones above. Thats the only difference I can spot tho. No difference in the .xls / raw  

Maybe one more thing to notice:

When you import data to this smart field you can even import data that is not existent within the smart referenced form. So in this case I could even import "Test" as value although its not a valid option.

![Screenshot_Import_Confiform_2.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/330813i0EAE925E9932986F/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot_Import_Confiform_2.png")


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: On the last screenshot, the way the value is rendered, actually indicates that is not found and is shown as is (looks like the text is imported, not the UUID)

Feel free to open a support ticket with us, providing the raw export to investigate

Notifications on MS Teams

Anyone know of an effective way in Data Center version to send notifications to MS Teams channel.

I am looking to implement notifications on a channel when a page is updated, so people get notifications that there has been a change.

Unknown account G with admin priviledge
Asked by Matthieu Pfeiffer:

Hello,

A technical account G is present by default in newly created spaces of our Confluence (Standard) with admin permissions.

This account is not listed in Atlassian user administration.

Our Jira IT administrators are not aware of any app requiring this account (neither internal services).

We have removed permissions granted to this account on different spaces, without noticing a disruption so far. (The issue remains as this account is added by default)

What is the use of this account? How can we find find out?

(For information, we do not have Google suite or any Google app/plugin/etc.)

Please advise.


Answers:
author: Shawn Doyle - ReleaseTEAM
body: I checked two different Atlassian orgs and do not have a User named G.

Your G user was either created locally or via an add-on. If it is being added by default to any new space, you should be able to track down why and change it.

comments: author: Matthieu Pfeiffer
body: Hi Shawn,

Thanks for your answer.

As you say, I "should be able to track down why", but I actually do not know how... :)

1. Plugins: we have checked our plugins. We only have two plugins installed, and neither of these plugins require this account.

2. User administration: the user is not listed in the User list in Atlassian administration.

Do you have another lead to track this down?

Any hint is appreciated.

(FYI: I have site/user admin privileges and could not find this account G in the administration (except in Space Permissions pages). One of our IT admins also checked with org admin privilege and did not locate the account neither.

Need to use the transformed column in another Table
Asked by Ramu:

Hey,

I have a manually created Table T1 transformed using Table Transformer to display the 'Name, Salary, Bonus, Total' -\> out of which the Total Column is defined in Transform logic as :

(T1.Salary + T1.Bonus) as 'Total'

now, i have another Table T2 (Transformed) where i want/need to refer/use this 'Total' column of first Table transformed.

for ex,

my T2 has columns like ' Name, Availability, Billing' -\>

here for the 'Billing' column's calculation, i want to use the 'Total' column of first Table ..

we are aware that this cant be done as T1.Total (coz "Total' was a transformed/defined column and not originally the built in column of T1 ..)

So, how to refer the T1's Total column in my T2 calculation/Table ?

i.e., How to call/use the Transformed COLUMN in one Table into the other Table ?

Please help ..

URGENT - REFUND REQUEST
Asked by Jackie Stuart:

Hi

I understand that this might not be the correct channel for Atlassian Billing issues. But I tried to use the online form, but it wanted an SEN and other details, and no matter how much information I provided I still only ended up with a 'Need More Help' button (without an option to Submit, or provide more details). I am hoping you can provide me with the best avenue to get this resolved.

<br />

**The Actual Query**

I was unable to successfully edit our Tier before our Contract was Auto-Renewed. I tried to change the Plan/Tier for Confluence. Unfortunately, this didn't actually change anything as we have been auto-renewed.  
Are you able to put me in touch with someone who can refund us for the difference, reduce our Confluence Tier, and provide either our Account Manager (if we have one) or the steps as to how I would do this moving forward?  

I'm hoping I'm not redirected back to the Support Form as I was unable to submit it. Ideally there is an email address where I can create a support ticket.

I also checked, and I have the required permissions to edit Billing details.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

How can I report on progress of Epics in a Confluence Project Page?
Asked by Doug McFarlane:

I want to be able to consolidate 3 epics into a singular project page and report on progress across each epic.

I want to show the title of each epic, as well as a progress bar with the ability to drill into the specific tickets/tasks as needed. Is this possible?

I know I can do all of this really easily with Notion but it's seeming much more challenging in confluence.  

Note, we're an org managed instance, so installing 3rd party plugins is not a solution in the short term. I'm looking to utilize what's available in the Atlasian Suite.


Answers:
author: Nicolas Grossi
body: [@Doug McFarlane](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5155055) You might want to create a filter for all the open epics (that has 1 or more related USs in open or in prpgress)

Then make another filter displaying all the Ua on Epic (of the above filter) and you might have the progress in a single confluence page, am I wrong ?

Videos hosted on Azure Storage - getting embedding to work
Asked by Andrew Murdoch:

Good Day  

We have a number of videos stored on Azure Storage, and I've created links to them including the SAS, and they can be played directly in the browser. I can also place an Iframe on the documents, and indeed, they will also play the video.  

Is there a more tasteful way to add the videos? The iframes take the entire row, and autoplay, so I want more of a card view. If I paste a YouTube video, that's the default behaviour, and it's exactly what I want with my Azure links.  

Thanks


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Andrew Murdoch](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1467708)

Linking to a trick that I found out to be working with stubborn links - so far, it worked with videos, docs, slides, figma, miro...

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Make-your-Google-Slides-presentation-presentable/ba-p/2716845>

It's about creating an embed link in the tool itself then removing the embed furniture from the link and use it in the iframe macro. So I'm not link to a file, or a figma in its workspace, but to a visual presentation of the said file in the given tool.

Azure might be a different beast but I hope this can at least inspire you if it does not solve the issue straight away.

comments: author: Andrew Murdoch
body: I don't know why, and it seems like a bug, but if you insert the iframe then view it in Confluence the videos autoplay, no matter what you do. If you upload them to the Scroll Viewport, they dont', so it seems to work well! Thanks for the idea.
