Is it possible for several spaces to share one common page?
Asked by Katsiaryna Hreben:

For example, I have space 1, space 2, space 3 and all of them have 1 page in common. Is it possible to keep this page in some other 'shared space 4' and then when i need to export spaces 1,2,3 include that page from the 'shared space 4'.

Maybe there is some confluence functionality that can do this.

body: Hello [@Katsiaryna Hreben](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5281546), and welcome to the Atlassian Community!

A page cannot belong to multiple spaces simultaneously but can be included in its entirety using the [Include Page](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-include-page-macro/) macro.

Alternatively, you could work with [Excerpts](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-excerpt-macro/) or the more advanced functionality brought by the [Multiexcerpt](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/169/multiexcerpt?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) app by Appfire.

Lastly, our team developed the application [Navitabs](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/28632/navitabs-tabs-for-confluence?tab=pricing&hosting=cloud), which enables your team to create Tab Navigations on any page you desire which can render existing pages, child pages, embeds and more. Perhaps this could be useful for you?

Did SourceTree lose the ability to clone local repositories?
Asked by Thomas Herbig:

I frequently **cloned local repositories** in SourceTree for Mac as part of my workflow. However, I have been looking for the ability to do so in SourceTree 2.0.3 for Mac - without success. I miss it, even though I might eventually find a work-around (or I could use the command line - but that's what SourceTree is for).

Am I just missing it or is it no longer there? And if it's no longer there, it that intentional? And if it's intentional, what, please what, might be the reason?

Thanks,

Tom

Is there a way to update information in multiple places at once?
Asked by Brittany Burley:

We use our Confluence for a Knowledge Base that has subject matter experts listed on every page to contact for further information. Whenever we have a staffing change, multiple pages have to be changed to update the subject matter expert. Is there a way instead that on each page we can label a position (rather than a person) and then somewhere update the position information that automatically pulls to each page that the position is mentioned on?

In other words, the page would be designed showing: Subject Matter Expert: Operations Consultant - Ext. XXXX, but when it was viewed, it would pull the information from another page on who the Operations Consultant was to read: Subject Matter Expert: John Smith - Ext. 1234.

Is this possible?


Answers:
author: Laura Campbell _Seibert Media_
body: I haven't played around with the new Confluence databases (currently in Alpha, formerly known as Orderly from K15T), but since the information is stored outside of a page, displaying the information you need from a database could be a solution. When you update the data, it's automatically updated on all the pages.


author: Tansu Akdeniz
body: Hi [@Brittany Burley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5281246)

Welcome to the community.

If you want partial content of page to be re-used on another page, you can use page excerpt macro. So, you do not have to define same content in each page.

Please check [this KB](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-excerpt-macro/).

comments: author: Brittany Burley
body: That's exactly what I was looking for! I really appreciate you including the KB article. We are just about finished updating our database to use all excerpt macros and are amazed at the time savings!


author: Dan Tombs
body: Hi [@Brittany Burley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5281246)

You can do this with some clever use of Confluence macros. The includ page macro will literally bring in an entire page onto another page allowing you to reference a lot of information at once. The other is to use the excerpt and excerpt Include macro and only bring in parts of a page.

This allows you to correctly reference information through your knowledge base, limiting number of manual updates and even allow particular SMEs to look after that knowledge.

comments: author: Brittany Burley
body: We ended up using excerpt macros which is exactly what we needed!

Can we made confluence form to clone Jira tickets?
Asked by E Lin _alittlenooneblog_:

I am trying to create a form to clone jira tickets, is there any examples?


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Hi [@E Lin _alittlenooneblog_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5244763)

Yes, you can

It is no different to "Create Jira issue" - <https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Configuring+ConfiForms+IFTTT+actions+and+rules#ConfiguringConfiFormsIFTTTactionsandrules-CreateJiraIssue>

Just the values should be taken directly from the Jira issue

That is possible if your form has a JIra field (ConfiForms field type) and this way you will need to access values of an existing issue and use them in the mappings (to create another Jira issue) - <https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Accessing+Jira+issue+fields+directly+from+ConfiForms+using+Jira+issue+field>

Basically a visual for what I was trying to explain in my previous comment here.

Of course, the JSON depends on the configuration of your project and this is just a simplified example.

With general JSON structure you can use the Jira Helper that we have in the IFTTT macro (you can see it also briefly in the demo (although I am not using it here))

Is there alternate way to export Space Analytics content other than UI?
Asked by Shrivadiraja Joish:

Is there alternate way to export Space Analytics content other than UI?

Right now I am trying to export the analytics by following the below steps.

* Go to the space you want to export
* Select **Analytics**
* Click on **Content**
* Select the date range(In my case for a year)
* Click on 3 dots on the right corner and select **Export Excel**

Since the data is big, I run into timeout as the **Idle timeout** in AWS is set to 300sec and I don't want to increase it.

So is there a way to export other than the steps I mentioned above?

When a confluence user access a confluence space will they have access to JIRA and Share point links
Asked by Richard:

If a Confluence user doesn't have access to a particular share point page. And there are links to the share point page documents on the confluence space/page. If that user selects the link to the share point page where the documents are stored. Will the link work to display the document that is on the share point page?

Similarly with a JIRA dashboard that is being displayed on a confluence space/page. If the Confluence user looks on the Confluence page where the JIRA report is displayed. Will they see the JIRA report if they do not have access to that particular instance of JIRA?


Answers:
author: Frederik Vantroys
body: Hi [@Richard](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4361934) ,

Confluence doesn't manage or bypass user permissions to other Atlassian products or to external content.

So in the case of Sharepoint the user will probable get an access denied message or will be redirected to a login page for Sharepoint.

In the case of Jira users will not see the Jira Report if they don't have access to that report in Jira itself

I don't think that is possible now.

You could write you own proces that iterates over all spaces in Confluence and adds the user ...

But you would still have a high maintenance if new spaces are created.

Why don't you want to use Groups ?

Owner - you can now change the variable, but how do you access it in a document?
Asked by Lars Olesen:

I appreciate very much that Confluence now supports the concept of a Owner role, and that you can change the person assigned as Owner for a page.

However, I haven't found any way, e.g. a macro, to access the value of the Owner variable on a page.

I find that rather odd. The first thing you will like to have stated in a document header is who owns the document (especially if you want to print the document). But there seems to be no way to access the value of the Owner in Confluence Cloud.

Please tell me I'm wrong.

  * Is there a Space config I need to turn on? (I couldn't find one)
* Are Page Views supposed to appear automatically?
  * Do they only appear in paid accounts (I'm on the free tier)
* Do I need to install a plugin?
  * I tried installing the "Analytics" app (screenshot from support.atlassian.com), but I couldn't find the way to add it.
  * I did manage to add the BitVoodoo App, but it isn't free, and I doesn't seem as straightforward as the "Analytics" app that Atlassian documents...
