Maximum issues on "Jira Issue/Filter" Confluence macro
Asked by Jordan Janis:

The Display options part of the configuration screen for the Jira Issue/Filter Confluence macro provides a "maximum issues" field that defaults to 1000. If I try to increase the number I get a warning saying the number must be between 1 and 1000. However, below the field it reads, "Leave empty to get all issues" (see photo). Problem is, it won't allow you to leave the field empty!

Is there a fix or workaround to this? All other posts in this community refer to the issue search filter and export maximums. A new story was recently submitted (<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-71188>) so I know I'm not the only one with this problem.

Any ideas?!?

Answers:
author: Mike Rathwell
body: Hi [@Jordan Janis](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1332194)

The 1000 number, unless it has been changed by the Jira administrator is set to a default of 1000 max issues returned. There are a variety of reasons for it but, were it set to allow the 5k records you have in your example, you could bring your Jira instance to its knees.

Rather than what would be a huge pull of records through the API that could also be potentially detrimental to the environment, I would highly recommend breaking the list up rather a lot.

comments: author: Jordan Janis
body: Thanks, Mike.

The 5000 above was just an example. I wouldn't have wanted it to be nearly that large. In the scenario where I noticed this issue I believe we had just under 1100 issues that would have been returned by my filter. This is definitely an outlier.  

The issue seems to be that our admins can't determine what configuration parameter will increase this. It doesn't seem to be tied to the max_export configuration.

And, more obviously, leaving the field blank doesn't work in spite of the guidance on the screen. Being able to do so would solve my problem.


author: Mike Rathwell
body: Oh... well, if you want to increase it, it is something the Jira admin needs to do. [This page](https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/filter-export-only-contains-1000-issues-in-jira-server-191500982.html?_ga=2.2441522.36802858.1598889155-899350050.1587050399) describes where these all are. I highly recommend setting a restricted group that can export way more issues so that you don't get too many doing it at once and DOS your system...

Hope this gets you the rest of the way.


author: Daniel Corrigan

Double account
Asked by Gilles Van Zeebroeck:

I'm the product owner and administrator for our Confluence wiki page. When I first created the Confluence page for our organization I was not prompted to enter a company name. This led to our domain name being something like <https://team-1598267904685.atlassian.net/> which is not what we want. So I tried changing the company name in the Atlassian account/Profile and visibility hoping that this would change the domain name, unfortunately this did not work.

So I created a second account, this time using my Gmail email address (as my company email address was already in use) and this time I was able to create the account under our company name which is now <https://kasparsolutions.atlassian.net/> which is what we want

But how can I link my company email address to the <https://kasparsolutions.atlassian.net/> account if I'm not able to delete the <https://team-1598267904685.atlassian.net/> account to free-up my company email address? I get a message "we weren't able to delete your account" and on the other hand I'm not able to change the Email address of my <https://kasparsolutions.atlassian.net/> account since the email address is already in use...

Thanks for your advise

As I see the current situation, your space import from Confluence Server to Cloud has failed. With this in mind, I have to ask a few questions:
> 1. *What is the size (In Mega Bytes or Giga Bytes) of your XML file?*
> 2. *From what version of Confluence Server does this XML file come from?*

We a document that tackles Server to Cloud Migration. We highly recommend that you take a look at it. Here it goes:
> * [++***\[Atlassian Cloud\] Plan your cloud migration***++](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/plan-your-cloud-migration-972349846.html)

How to avoid list numbers being switched after "Import from WORD"?
Asked by Darya Akbari:

Please see the two screenshots attached.

1. One is my list in a WORD document.
2. The other is the result after "import from WORD" in Cloud Confluence.

Any hints?

Is it possible to create a self-filling-form?
Asked by Silke Baumgarten:

Here's my problem:  
For our company, we have to create documents that are very much about if-then relationships.

For example:

![confluence wenn dann.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/107713iAB95EC0AEA420264/image-dimensions/427x96?v=v2 "confluence wenn dann.PNG")

In the first column, it says either n.a. (not applicable) or the rationale XX.  
The second column remains empty if "applicable". Otherwise, the text "Not applicable since XXX" appears.  
Because the document is very repetitive, we work with "shared blocks". That means you only enter once in the shared block why "not applicable" and then the rationale is used everywhere. This works great with column 2, because it remains empty if "applicable", i.e. the shared block is simply left empty.

Columns 1\&3 are problematic, because they contain references to documents. If "n.a." is not correct, the "shared block" is simply left empty as described above, leaving only the rationale XX in column 1 and the documents XX and XY in column 3.

Now I would like to have a function/app/plugin/ with which I automatically delete the pink marked texts if "n.a." applies. Is there a possibility for this, which does not require much programming skills?  
The solution with the "shared blocks" could also be undone, this was only my first try/solution to solve the problem semi-automatically.

Thank you all very much!
