Is there a bug relating to the page properties report that results in some values not being shown?
Asked by garylester:

I have created a page properties report:

1) added **page properties** macro to a confluence page (page 1)

2) added a table inside the **page properties** macro (page 1)

3) added a label to the page (page 1)

4) added a **page properties report** macro to a different page (page 2) at a higher level where the macro uses the label described in step 3 above

5) several of the values in the table on page 1 do not come through to the summary table on page 2

See supporting screenshots attached.

++Missing values++

1. One of the epic links is not displaying

2. One of the values for 'Project name' is not displaying

Welcome to Confluence!!

Can you include Headers in Configuration of Page Properties Macro and check the columns are showing up

![Columns.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/180947i5786D1B5AC6DD679/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Columns.png")

Thanks,  
Pramodh

I have listed all of the columns, they are visible but as you can see the top one is missing the Epic link which is definitely populated so it should appear as the others already do.

This is why I think it may be a bug

Can you share the screenshot of the table in page properties?

body: I'm seeing a similar behavior since we upgraded from Server v7.4 to v7.13 LTS.

We are using dynamically build tables inside our page properties macro to fetch overall test results from a second table via "transform tables" SQL:

**Page View:**   
![Page_view.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/181136i11790A70421B53C4/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Page_view.png")

**Edit View:**

![edit_view.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/181139i3C9223A505F7B83D/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "edit_view.png")

As you can see this is working fine on each individual page.

However, the page properties report macro that sits on a different page is only showing values for the columns of the "static" table:

![properties_report_view.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/181141i82CCA9070D26B0DE/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "properties_report_view.png")

I explicitly mentioned the columns in the configuration of the page properties report macro, but that did not fix it:![properties_report_configuration.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/181142i6620BD39F01530DF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "properties_report_configuration.png")

The page properties report macro was working fine with v7.4, so I'm guessing that some of the improvements that went into the macro since 7.4 made it less useable for dynamically generated content.

I see that you use our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community) app - you may use the [Table Excerpt/Table Excerpt Include](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Excerpt+and+Table+Excerpt+Include+macros?utm_source=atl_community) macros instead of the Page Properties Report macro.

The Table Excerpt/Table Excerpt Include macros allow you to collect tables by labels and show the page source meta data.

thank you for the advice. I'll give it a try. :)

You will see that the epic link is visible in the page properties table however it doesn't get surfaced in the page properties report.
