Import specific events from Outlook calendar
Asked by Angela L_:

We're on Confluence Data Center 8.5. I want to be able to select which events on my Outlook calendar get imported to my Teams calendar. Is there a way to do this?

All I've been able to do so far is import the entire Outlook calendar (which I don't want---too many irrelevant events), or manually create duplicates of the individual, relevant Outlook events in the Teams calendar (which I also don't want---duplication of effort).

body: Hi there [@Angela L_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3738435) ,

As far as I know, you could only do this with a third party app.

I work for yasoon and we're developing an app called Outlook Calendars for Confluence. The app enables a real-time integration of Outlook calendars in Confluence, no sync needed.

For your use case, you could work with filters to only show specific events in your Confluence calendar: [Outlook Calendars for Confluence \| Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1217554/outlook-calendars-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=datacenter). The app is available for Data Center and you can [book a demo here](https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/Andreasyasoon@yasoon.com/bookings/).

Of course, you can check out the other third party apps here: [Confluence Calendar apps \| Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?product=confluence&query=calendar)

Best,

Britta

body: Thank you for the reply! Unfortunately, I'm not able to pay $3,500 per year on top of the $$$$ we're already spending on Confluence just to get this feature.

For anyone else looking for a solution that you don't have to pay extra for, what I ended up doing was creating an entirely separate Outlook calendar that has only the specific events I want, and then [subscribing the Confluence calendar to that Outlook calendar by URL](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/subscribe-to-outlook-calendar-from-team-calendars-1044780495.html). It works fine, and the little effort it took to move all of the needed events from the original Outlook calendar to the new one was well worth it to save thousands of dollars.


author: Britta Neugebauer _yasoon_
body: Hi [@Angela L_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3738435) , sounds like you found a good solution for your use case. I understand that this single feature was not a reason for you to get a paid app.

Disable subscription option in Team Calendars
Asked by Lena:

Hi all,

We would like to deactivate the whole "subscribe" option in Team Calendars globally for our company.  
Is this possible and if so, how can we deactivate the function?

Thanks a lot!

Lena


Answers:

body: Hey [@Lena](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4639552),

You can hide this **Subscribe** option from calendar menu using CSS:

![Screenshot 2024-01-08 at 19.43.01.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/299435iB01DF8FF56B14AAB/image-dimensions/196x284?v=v2 "Screenshot 2024-01-08 at 19.43.01.png")

Go to **Confluence Admin \> Custom HTML** and insert the code in the "At end of the HEAD" textbox:

```
<style type="text/css">
li:has(> .subcalendar-subscribe) {
display: none;
}
</style>
```

comments: author: Lena
body: Thank you for your quick response [@Kseniia Trushnikova](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4593830)! We tried the way you suggested but it didn't work. The subscribe option is still visible. Are there any other ways? (We have Confluence Data Center 7.19.17


author: Kseniia Trushnikova
body: [@Lena](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4639552), oh sorry. I tested this CSS on our Confluence Server 8.5.x... Looks like the class for the Subscribe option might be named different in older Confluence versions.

You can find the class by right-clicking the Subscribe option and select *Inspect* . If the class is different, replace it in the code I sent you earlier:

![Screenshot 2024-01-16 at 11.11.43.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/300689iF9C8E8F3B28B1EA7/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2024-01-16 at 11.11.43.png")

You can also try this:

```
<style type="text/css">
li:has(> .subcalendar-subscribe) {
display: none !important;
}
</style>
```

OR

```
<style type="text/css">
.subcalendar-subscribe {
display: none !important;
}
</style>
```

body: Hi [@Kseniia Trushnikova](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4593830) ,

there is also a button to subribe a calendar left from "Add event" button. How we can hide this subscribe-button too?

Kind regards

author: Kseniia Trushnikova
body: Hello [@Lars](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5469046),

This CSS will hide the Subscribe button:

Setting reminders and notifications
Asked by Trutz Hock:

In team calendars you cannot set a reminder for any entry into the calendar (like remind me 15min before the event). Is there any way to accomplish that?  
Also, it would be great to have personalized reminders, and not just to everyone who is attached to the calendar. We organizing several Teams through one calendar and obviously not everybody wants to be notified of some other teams events.


Answers:
author: Marc - Devoteam
body: Hi [@Trutz Hock](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5375366)

Welcome to the community.

You are able to set reminders on event types in the calendar.

The reminders will be set for all entries based on that event.

Personal reminders are not able to set by default, a work around could be to create an event type for every user, then that event type can have its own reminder set.

is it possible to set reminder longer than 4 weeks out?
Asked by David Horne:

Hi team,

<br />

We are using Confluence Calendars to manage some long term tasks, license renewals.

A user wants to set a reminder for people 6 months and then 3 months out for different stages, I can only see a reminder for an event to be set to 4 weeks out, can this be done further out?

Regards

Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@David Horne](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5299064) There is no way to change or customize this. 4 weeks is the maximum amount of time you can place a reminder on.

API to update or delete Team Calendar entry

Is it possible to automatically update a date in confluence?
Asked by jules24:

Hi everyone,

I am looking for a solution to automatically update dates on a confluence page.

We are protocoling our dailies and I normally copy the template of the week but still I have to update the dates (e.g. Tuesday, 05.09.23) manually. It does not take me long but I was wondering whether there exists a macro that does it automatically.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated :)

Thanks in advance!


Answers:
author: Teodora V
body: Hi [@jules24](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5194947)

I doubt there is an automated solution to this use case. I have a similar approach to our recurring meetings, and my solution so far is adding the date either at the title (when creating the page) or having it only in one place so it's quicker :)

For bulk changes I've used this app in the past: [https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/284/confluence-command-line-interface-cli?tab=overview\&hosting=cloud](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/284/confluence-command-line-interface-cli?tab=overview&hosting=cloud)

But I doubt a change of a few dates is worth setting up an entire app.

comments: author: jules24
body: Hi Teodora,

thank you for your message and your suggestions! The app looks cool but unfortunately we are working in a client environment so probably even if there was a fitting macro, it would be challenging to get it or the app..

Have a great day!

I subscribed and somehow everything on my outlook calendar was added to the team calendar
Asked by Tuesday Kuykendall:

I wanted to subscribe to our team calendar just so I could view PTO and holidays. I followed the directions for doing this on a windows computer with outlook. After following all the directions (including downloading CalDav) I did the 'test' which worked. Ironically, I can't see the team calendar in my outlook but everything on my outlook calendar showed up on the team calendar and sent 80+ notifications to everyone in the company. How do I roll this back?

Here's the documentation.

Probably the quickest way is to remove the profile.

Hope this helps.

comments: author: Tuesday Kuykendall
body: Thanks - yes, those are the instructions I originally followed. I suspect it has something to do with two vs one way server connection. Anyway - I uninstalled CalDav and decided it wouldn't kill me to just periodically check the team calendar! It seems to have worked.

Answers:

body: Brant, thank you for the response.

I downloaded the Team Calendars 7.0.17 for Data Center and installed but it said '**Incompatiable** ' with my confluence**Server -7.19.12** LTS software. The MarketPlace does not show any version of Team Calendars for Confluence Server 7.12 and after.


author: Brant Schroeder
body: What version were you previously on before upgrading your server instance?


author: Trung Tran
body: It was migrated from Confluence Server 7.13.x with active license for Team Calendars good until February 2024.


author: Brant Schroeder
body: Migrated or upgraded? I do not have a server instance available to me to look at anymore but in data center the team calendar feature is now bundled. You should submit a support issue to Atlassian since you still have a support until feb 2024 to see how to handle the issue.

Can you (or your database administrator) verify if the table AO_950DC3_TC_REMINDER_USERS exists in your system?

There is a KB article available describing issues (also listing that table) after migrating from mysql to postgres

My Atlassian Account Was Deleted but I am still being billed
Asked by Customer Service:

My Atlassian account, the one that receives my monthly Trello billing statement, was deleted a while back. I am still being billed every month. If Atlassian has deleted my account, how am I to use it? Getting customer support on this platform is truly a frustrating experience. It asks me to login to create a support ticket, however I cannot login because Atlassian deleted my account. Has anyone else had this same issue and if so, were you able to resolve it?


Answers:
author: Kieren _SmolSoftware_
body: [@Customer Service](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5600736) Atlassian billing is tied to products, not accounts. So if you closed your account, but not the product, then the product will still be active and billed for.

I'm guessing there's someone that is still using the Trello product? If so the easiest option is to contact an admin who still has access to the product and get them to change the billing details to another credit card.

Otherwise, you'll need to create a new Atlassian account, to contact support, to get the Trello product turned off. And you'll need to provide some evidence of ownership of the Trello product.

Last option is to get your bank/credit card to block the charges.

Hope that helps

How to Reuse Automation Rules Across Projects in Jira?
Asked by Dario:

Hello,

Is there a way in Jira to avoid creating automations for every new project?  
Is there an automation scheme, similar to workflows or issue types?

Thank you!


Answers:
author: Susan Waldrip
body: Hi [@Dario](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2638184) , welcome to the Community!

If I understand your question right, when you are working in Global Automation (as a Jira admin), you can specify the scope of that rule. Getting to Global Automation is Settings (gear) \> System \> AUTOMATION: Global Automation.

For example, Automation A can be applied to a single project (which is what it sounds like you're talking about?), multiple projects in your site that you select, by a type of project such as Business Project or Scrum, or Globally where Automation A will run on ALL projects.

Thanks again!

author: Valerie Knapp
body: Hi [@Dario](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2638184) , thanks for your question.

The answer in this moment is unfortunately no. You can have obviously rules that have mulitple projects or the whole instance in their scope. I understand, however, that these count differently in terms of the instance consumption of automation.

How many rules do you have per project? Is there potential to create some of them as global rules and then you would only need to replicate a smaller number to propogate to new projects.

Having difficulty accessing careers portal
Asked by james:

Hi,   

I am unable to receive the password recovery email for the email address I used to sign up to the careers portal.   

I've checked spam. Cleared cache, checked cookies.  

I've tried across Chrome, Safari \& Firefox browsers.   

And I've verified that I am using the correct email I applied with (based on the confirmation emails I received after applying).   

Even when I tried signing up to test that my email account is active, I am getting the error:

We are having trouble verifying reCAPTCHA for this request. Please try again. If the problem persists, try another browser/device or reach out to Atlassian Support.

I understand that you are trying to login to the career portal, but are unable to do so, and unable to get email to recover that account. Could you confirm the URL of the page where you are trying to sign in?

Also I'd want to confirm the email address of your account. Is this the same email that you used to login here to Community? Or if this is different, could you let me know that email address or that Atlassian Account Id.

While we do operate a suppression list for our Cloud services, I did not find any suppression on your current account used here in Community. So it might be there is a different email account in play and it also might be that our vendor for careers might be using another system as well.
