youngmon/atlassian-qna huggingface dataset:
Order by Month name and display accordingly on the graph
Asked by Elena Kondrashova:

Hi All,

Hoping to get a community help on the following question.

I have a macro that pulls the information from different confluence pages into one table on single page. Table has columns: **Project \| Month \| Allocated Hours**. The entries come to the master table in unordered way, i.e. I can have entry for March, then for February below, then for March again etc.

Now the goal is to present the data from this table in a chart grouped per month, but the issue that I have is that the months are showing in random order in the chart (see screenshot below). The "Month" column is just a text string, so when I try to update my SQL query in the macro, it groups by Month column in alphabetical order.

Question: is there a way to go around it and have the month column sorted in chronological order as in January, February, March, April etc..? TIA!

body: Hi [@Elena Kondrashova](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5056724),  

Based on the part of your screenshot, I assumed that we are talking about the [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=datacenter&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) app and its macros. If it is so, please somehow mention the name of the app and macro names for us not to miss your questions.  

Besides, you may refer to [our support](https://jsd.stiltsoft.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/2/user/login?destination=portal%2F2) -- the portal is confidential, so you'll be able to share your data (for example, source tables and macro structure).  

As for now, keeping in mind my assumption that you indeed use our app, I can suggest the following workaround using the [Pivot Table](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/dc-server/how-to-use-pivot-table-macro-42239659.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro:  

![Tue 21-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/248227i1B35D5041BC92ECB/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Tue 21-1.png")![Tue 21-2.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/248228i8BA6B2058C84FE7C/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Tue 21-2.png")  

As you can see, the Pivot Table macro automatically sorts months in a proper way. So, your chart will look as required as well.  

![Tue 21-3.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/248229i7BD5544B6177FC91/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Tue 21-3.png")  

Hope it helps.

Why can't I view pages in my space when I have all promissions in my space?
Asked by Katherine Pagni:

I was granted all permissions to my space but am unable to view certain pages in my space. They don't even pop-up when I search them in the search box. Why is that? On my space home page, I only see two administrators listed including myself. Should I be able to see the names of all the administrators that have permissions to the space? Does this mean I don't have viewing rights to all the other pages owned by the admins that I don't see on the list but have permissions to the space? How to I correct this problem and get viewing rights to all pages in the space? What does it mean by published and unpublished? How does someone check is a page is unpublished? I appreciate all the help in advance. Thank you.

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Confluence has three different permissions; global, space and page restrictions. So if you have the right permissions in the space then it is the page restrictions that is doing this. View page restrictions are inherited down from the parent page to children, so if you are not added to the view permission then you will not be able to see those pages. As a space admin you can go to Space Settings and see which pages are restricted under Manage pages.

Trend line Customer Satisfaction statistics for pages in a space.
Asked by Melodee:

My team is trying to get trend lines month over month for user satisfaction in a Confluence space. This space is a curated library whereby some end users can draft but not edit broadly in the space. Any suggestions as to 1) apps for page visits, time spent on a page, scroll to end of page, "like" a page, inline comments (we use Hide Comments macro otherwise.) 2) getting trend lines for stats month over month? Tableau doesn't seem to have what we need in this area.

Since you are on Server I would suggest just adding Google Analytics. This is easy to do and can provide a lot of insights. The only issue you could run into is if your instance is behind a firewall that would prevent traffic from going back to Google. If you are behind a firewall, usually an internal intranet, then there are some other apps in the marketplace that might meet your needs [https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=server\&product=confluence\&query=analytics](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=server&product=confluence&query=analytics)

Confluence lost two days of work
Asked by Michel Arboi:

It was "unpusblished" as it was a draft, but I "closed" the page after each major edit.  
Everything is gone and I am furious.  
What should I do? (apart switching to Libreoffice for my future documents)


Answers:
author: Michel Arboi
body: It really lost my unpublished page and I am quite sure I did not delete anything. It did it again yesterday, with less impact though as I now "publish" every minor edit.  
I suspect a bug with the last Firefox (111.0) or maybe a conflict with some extension.


author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Michel Arboi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4773247) ,

usually draft pages are not deleted by confluence. Please take a look to the following similar question <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Clicked-Close-on-a-Draft-and-Lost-My-Changes-Any-way-to-get-them/qaq-p/1577861>

Fabio


author: Trudy Claspill
body: Hello [@Michel Arboi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4773247)

When you use the Close button on a page that has never been published, you are saving changes to a Draft copy of that page.

You should be able to find that page under the Recent \> Drafts menu option.

![Screen Shot 2023-03-27 at 2.51.14 PM.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/248033i232ABD76BD1A2454/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screen Shot 2023-03-27 at 2.51.14 PM.png")

The only way a draft should end up deleted is if you intentionally delete it.

The proper article you should read, since you are on cloud as you state on your question, is this one: <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-content-into-confluence-cloud/>

If your python script uses the [confluence cloud REST API](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/intro/), then it could be feasible.

Searching for a way to add guest users to a space via REST API
Asked by V?ronique:

Hi,

For one of our customers, a school, we will have to invite users in bulk via REST API. It concerns students, at the beginning of the school year (so many many users at a time). This customer is not able to claim the domain, that's why this will be happening via REST API, the Create User endpoint.

Only school personel will have paid Confluence accounts. The students will have guest accounts.

From what I read, guest users have to be added to spaces in an individual basis. Is this concerns hundreds of users, we are trying to find a way to do this in bulk, for example by adding to the Create User script something like "guest user", Space permissions "xxx".

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Unfortunately there isn't an endpoint to invite users in confluence. You can vote and watch this issue <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-54893> to be further notified.

comments: author: Ture Hoefner _Appfire_
body: That issue does not mention **guest** users but it does mention an experimental API for inviting users: <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v2/api-group-user/#api-user-access-invite-by-email-post>

That experimental API is for inviting regular users and has no functionality related to guest users.

I'll add a comment to that issue because it is probably the closest thing that exists for tracking this requested feature (the ability to invite guest users via REST API).

What you want to "actually store"

If you are setting it through the IFTTT then asRef is needed, as otherwise it will evaluate agains the "current record"

Uploading attchment using /wiki/rest/api/content/{pageid}/child/attachment results in status 415
Asked by Leon Andr? Bergman:

Hi.

I am trying to set up a call to upload files to pages, but I keep hitting a snag where it tells me 415 Unsupported Media Type.

I'm trying to go by what this documentation says:  
<https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/api-group-content---attachments/#api-wiki-rest-api-content-id-child-attachment-put>  

In Postman I've set up other calls, that work fine. including a GET on /wiki/rest/api/content/{pageid}/child/attachment

For the POST I have set up the header   
X-Atlassian-Token with value nocheck

The body is:  
{  
file: "{full file path}"  
minorEdit: true  
type: image  
}  
I have also tested:  
{  
file=@"{full file path}"  
minorEdit="true"  
type=image  
}  
and  
{  
file=@"{full file path}"  
minorEdit="true"  
type="image"  
}  
Does anyone know what the correct working call would be in postman?


Answers:
author: Oday Rafeh
body: Hi [@Leon Andr? Bergman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5148679)

According to the documentation you linked you are missing the Content-Type header in your request, the **Content-Type** should be set to multipart/form-data for file uploads.

Try adding the following header to your request:

Content-Type: multipart/form-data

Also, make sure that the file path you are using in your request body is correct and that the file exists.

comments: author: Leon Andr? Bergman
body: This was part of the issue.  
But I only got it to work after I switched from using Raw , to form-data in the body in Postman.

Added a line with they key st to file.  
Under value I browsed for the file I wanted to upload.  
I had to show the Content type field under form-data, and set it to multipart/form-data for that file.

Seems this call can send multiple files, and you have to specify content type pr file. Which makes sense once you know its a multi file call, not single file.
