Need to update the Excel data automatically in Confluence
Asked by Ramu:

Dear All ..

The following looks like near impossible with my exploring knowledge so far with

'[Table from CSV](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-table-from-csv-macro-42246005.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111), Office Excel Macro, Spreadsheet macro' etc ..

My ask is:

I have a Capacity plan in my Excel which will be updated on weekly basis .. now, there is a need for me to reflect the same in Confluence page(Table) ..

in short, every week ..

When the Excel gets updated, the same data should be Automatically updated in the Confluence Page as well ..

Initially, i thot that this is not a big ask but after quite tryouts .. it looks like near impossible (atleast for me) ..

If one of you can really help/solve on this, i can save my Excel with your name :) .. HELP pls

The Table from CSV macro reflects the current state of your Google Sheets. So, if your Excel file is not a local file on your computer but a Google Spreadsheet, then you'll be able to [connect your file to the macro](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/outputting-tables-from-google-sheets-and-google-drive-in-confluence-58426130.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) and synchronize them.

The Table Spreadsheet macro was initially designed not to keep anything on local computers but to store your data and work with Excel-like functions right in Confluence.

Seems that's all we can help you with. If these options don't suit you, you may update your attachment manually every week or try to write any custom scripts or smth.

body: Thank you ..

so you mean to say .. as of now in Confluence we don't have any feature or alternative way to get this done ..

Hope ..in future .. this should be simple thro some options .. Thx again ...

Exporting page to PDF truncate code when it is too wide
Asked by Sim?on Capy:

Hello,

I exported one of my pages with a bloc of code inside. This code is wide and need a horizontal scroll bar. But when I exported the page into PDF, no line breaks have been added and the code is not visible on the right.

You can see in on the line 10 and 25 of my screenshot.

![Screenshot 2024-05-31 135355.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/327109i625FA83EC35B1704/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2024-05-31 135355.png")

How to change this behaviour, or is it a bug?

author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Sim?on Capy](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5509768) and welcome to the community.

A couple of years ago I was a tech writer on a CA Technologies mainframe product and we faced the same issue when exporting wide mainframe printscreens into a PDF format from Confluence. LIke this:

![Mainframe screen.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/327125i2F1C397AD9D68177/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Mainframe screen.png")

Your options include:

* Try a different code macro app from the marketplace
* Tweak your PDF export stylesheet - it's available in Settings under Look and Feel
* Try [Scroll PDF Exporter](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/7019/scroll-pdf-exporter-for-confluence?tab=support&hosting=cloud) from K15t, it offers [tweaks](https://help.k15t.com/scroll-pdf-exporter/5.12/cloud/add-a-table-of-tables-figures-code-blocks-equation) for code export

In our case, we developed our own macro (as an app, I believe) that defaulted to a smaller font and used customeze Scroll PDF exporter to do the trick.

comments: author: Sim?on Capy
body: Hello [@Kristian Klima](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5074962) thank you for your answer.

I will try to look on the app marketplace if I can find suitable PDF macro and doing my one stylesheet if I have enough time :)

Price of Scroll PDF Exporter app
Asked by Doug Danaher:

My company produces complex software and we are looking at using the Confluence **Scroll PDF Exporter app** to customize PDF output.   

We are looking at a single license to start and I am trying to find out how much a single license costs and whether or not a single license would be


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: [@Doug Danaher](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5509665)

To find out the exact price:

1. Click **Apps** in the Confluence navigation bar on the top of the page.
2. Click **Find new apps** .  
   This opens the Marketplace.
3. Search for the app.
4. Click the app's tile.
5. You'll see 'try it free' and the little note under that then $N.n after 30 day trial.

(if you don't see the options, ask your admin to do that).

As [@Mikael Sandberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/853579) wrote:

* the app's price is always determined by the number of licensed seats *on the Confluence where the app is installed*.
* the Confluence pricing tier does not affect the price of the apps


author: Mikael Sandberg
body: Hi [@Doug Danaher](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5509665),

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

The number of licenses you need for Scroll PDF Exporter is determined by how many Confluence licenses you have. So lets say if you have 100 Confluence licenses then you need 100 Scroll licenses. You can find the cost by going to the Pricing tab on the Marketplace listing and there you will also see the FAQ that explains the licensing.

comments: author: Doug Danaher
body: Hi Mikael,  

Thank you for replying so quickly. I have one follow up question (see below).   

**Some background:**

* My company purchased the Standard plan for Confluence.
* We have several users that create and maintain there own Confluence pages.
* I am a Technical Writer and am responsible for producing PDFs of our Confluence content.

**Question:** Because I am the only person in my company that will be using the Scroll PDF Exporter to produce PDFs, can we purchase a single license of the Scroll PDF Exporter, or do we have to purchase a license for each Confluence license we have?   

Thanks,  
Doug


author: Mikael Sandberg
body: The number of licenses for any apps has to correspond to the number of licenses you have for the Atlassian product, there is no way around that.

How to add Emojis to an issue-Template (Markup language)?
Asked by Tina K.:

Dear Community

I would like to ask for your help with the following problem:

We designed a nice template including emojis, that we wanted to use as issue-template for JIRA issues. See screenshot.

![image.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/342657iD84FB1B2CB38ADEB/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

However, the only emojis we are able to include in Markup are: (/) and (x) showing as the green tick and the red cross. But for example :clipboard: , :paintbrush: etc. do not show as emojis when the template is implemented, but as text only. See screenshot.

![image.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/342656i2130D624186CE9EE/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

Does anyone know, how the format of the emojis has to look like, that they appear in the end?

Or does anyone know if there is another way of creating a template where emojis can be included (different templates for user story, task and bug)?

Thank you in advance for your support! :)

Many of the macros and markdown supported by Jira fields in the UX are not supported with an automation rule, edit issue action for the fields.

My understanding is the only way to do some of this formatting in a rule is use the Send Web Request action to call the edit issue endpoint, passing the Atlassian Document Format (ADF) for the data: <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/apis/document/structure/>

There is a testing ADF builder and viewer linked to that documentation page to help with experimentation before creating your rule content.

Welcome to the community.

Only the editor supports markdown. in automation only markup is supported.

Automation doesn't know if a field you are setting is defined as a rich text field.

This as per field configuration you can define the renderer of a text field. This can differ as in a different a project you can use a different field config in a field configuration scheme on a project.

Comment automatiser la transition des tickets JIRA en fonction de Gitlab
Asked by Agn?s Darricau:

Bonjour,  

Notre ?quipe de d?veloppeurs travaille sur Gitlab et je suis chef de projet, j'organise le travail dans JIRA. Lorsque nous cr?ons des tickets dans JIRA, nous les groupons et souvent nous cr?ons des livraisons dans lesquelles nous glissons tous les tickets qui sont sens?s sortir dans cette livraison.   

Le probl?me c'est que les d?veloppeurs font leur deployments dans Gitlab, il nous disent que la version 3.2 est en production par exemple, mais dans JIRA je me retrouve avec une liste de tickets en waiting prod, qui, je suppose sont live, mais je n'ai aucun moyen de v?rifier que tous les tickets ont ?t? mis dans cette version.   

Seuls les d?veloppeurs savent. Je dois donc fermer les versions un peu ? l'aveugle.  

Du coup, nous voulions savoir si il ?tait possible d'automatiser la fermeture des tickets dans JIRA : passage en DONE lorsque dans Gitlab ce ticket (enfin ce bout de code) est pass? en production.  

Voil? notre workflow de merge dans master:

1. On cr?e une branche de release : BIG-2024-34 par exemple
2. On merge nos branches de dev dans la branche de release
3. On merge la branche de release dans master

Comment pourrait-on automatiser la fermeture des tickets dans JIRA en se basant sur notre workflow dans Git?   

Merci d'avance pour votre aide.


Answers:
author: Bill Sheboy
body: Hi [@Agn?s Darricau](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5572031) -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You could do that using automation rules, so please discuss with your team if they are interested in that approach.

That would require integrating your tools with Jira, as described here: <https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/configure-development-tools/>

And then building rules using the DevOps related triggers and smart values: <https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-automation-triggers/#DevOps-triggers>

Here are some example rules in the template library to learn what may be possible: <https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/automation-template-library/bitbucket-github-gitlab>

Finally, some activities do not have built-in rule actions to support them. For those, a rule could call your pipeline tools' REST API endpoints using the Send Web Request action: <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-articles/Automation-for-Jira-Send-web-request-using-Jira-REST-API/ba-p/1443828>

Kind regards,

You mean the activity column is not displayed to you. As far as I know, there is no option to change the columns and the activity column should be the default column.

Try exporting the logs as you will be able to find all details in the csv export.

How to select multiple ticket on search test by spesific test summary number
Asked by nikko wahyudi:

i have 500 tickets on my project and i want to change status no run to pass between 100 to 150 by test summary "example_SCN2_TC100" to "example_SCN2_TC150" is that possible to filter just show that ticket?


Answers:
author: Hannes Obweger - JXL for Jira
body: Hi [@nikko wahyudi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5571886)

welcome to the community!

Just to add to [@Hauke Bruno Wollentin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5238429)'s great answer: If you're open to solutions from the Atlassian Marketplace, you'll find a number of apps that extend Jira by advanced search and filter capabilities.

E.g., your use case should be easy to solve using the app that my team and I are working on, [JXL for Jira](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1224710?hosting=datacenter&tab=overview&utm_source=atlassian-community&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=2788754).

JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing, inline-editing, sorting, and filtering by all your issue fields, much like you'd do in e.g. Excel or Google Sheets. It also comes with a number of advanced features, including support for (configurable) *issue hierarchies* , *issue grouping* by any issue field(s), *sum-ups* , or *conditional formatting* - as well as the ability to filter issues via [*regular expressions*](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_expressions/Cheatsheet).

With regular-expression-based filtering, you can apply pretty much any logic, including the one that you are after:

![regex-filtering.gif](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/342733iF7FF5B9C4FB1B325/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "regex-filtering.gif")

(I'm using a column "Notes" here, but it would work the same for the summary.)

The regex that I'm using is

```
example_SCN2_TC(1[0-4][0-9]|150)
```

There's a few things going on here, but it matches every number from 100 to 149 (that's the *1\[0-4\]\[0-9\]* part), and also 150.

Once you've identified your issues, you can work on them directly in JXL (e.g., bulk edit them via copy/paste), or trigger various operations in Jira.

Any questions just let me know,

Best,

Hannes


author: Hauke Bruno Wollentin
body: Sadly JQL does not support regex by default.

Without any 3rd party plugin a possible solution would be something explicit like this

```
((summary ~ "example_SCN2_TC1*" and summary !~ "example_SCN2_TC15*" and summary !~ "example_SCN2_TC16*" and summary !~ "example_SCN2_TC17*" and summary !~ "example_SCN2_TC18*" and summary !~ "example_SCN2_TC19*") or summary ~ example_SCN2_TC150)
```

If you need to repeat this with more ranges, my personal approach would be to script this away in bash or Python or any other language using the REST API of Jira.

Also if this is a use-case for the future, I personally would add this range number into a number custom field. This allows searching for ranges like

```
myRangeField >= 100 AND myRangeField <=150
```
