I Am looking for the equivalent of a multi-line text Custom Field in Trello, any way to do that?
Asked by devops:

I would like to add a custom field that allows for a bit more room for entering a block of text, not unlike a regular Trello comment box. The current text custom field is pretty limiting. I need to be able to add specific text area for comments that I want on every card.

Thanks!

-Dan

Privacy concerns with public "invite to board" auto-complete feature
Asked by Kat Warner:

I went to invite someone to my Trello board and was concerned to see the field auto-complete by first and last name. Avatars are visible and there is a status indicator showing if the person has logged in recently or if that email address has a Trello account or not.

Has anyone else raised this as a concern?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Kat Warner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1210828) yeah I always invite people by email address!

comments: author: Kat Warner
body: I wanted to give someone visibility of a board but had to ask them what email address to use and I know the would not want an email address with their name showing in the auto-complete.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Kat Warner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1210828) It doesn't auto complete based on email and you can't get a trello users email address

Exporting data from checklist to excel/csv in trello
Asked by Aaron Lewis:

I collate customer data in checklists in trello cards and want to be able to export it to excel/csv for analysis. i am currently using trello for free but prepared to go to business class if we can do this.


Answers:
author: Elinor Ni Chathain
body: This is an old question, but I couldn't find a helpful answer. If you are on the free version of Trello, you can try printing to PDF, then copy and paste into Excel or LibreOffice Calc. This worked for me.

1. Go to Share \> Print

2. Then instead of selecting your printer, change the destination to save as PDF, save.

3. Open the PDF in a document viewer, and copy the checklist items.

Only select the checklist, ignore the other parts of the card.

4. Open Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice Calc and paste the checklist items in there.


author: Jodi LeBlanc
body: Hi [@Aaron Lewis](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2895324) I just read that Trello Business Class lets you export all of the boards in your team in both CSV and JSON format. You can also include all of your attachments as a .zip file in their native format. To do so, go to your team's page and select the "Export" tab. Please note that you'll need to be a team admin to access the "Export" tab. See [trello.com/business-class](https://trello.com/business-class) to learn more.

How to lock a member?
Asked by Neha Coles:

I am a teacher and want to be able to lock/prohibit some of my students who are inappropriate from moving cards or typing in, but just viewing the board. Is this possible?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Neha Coles](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2894088) You can restrict commenting to board members, but allow team members to view the board. So if you set up a team, then add all students to it, then add only those allowed to comment as members of the board, then set commenting permissions to members only, that would do the trick. Also disable self-join so all team members can't add themselves, and restrict member invitation permissions to admins only
Wanting to remove auto-watch feature on due date changes
Asked by Catie Andrus:

I have read some posts saying that trello is watching for discussion to see what the general consensus is on the auto-watch feature before they make any changes.

I find it highly annoying that there is no way to turn it off. I feel like you should have an option to disable it without having to de-watch every single card you change the due date on.

This feature might be fine for some people but for the people that do not want it, they should have the option to opt out of this function.

How many of you feel the same way I do?


Answers:
author: mxk
body: Hi [@Catie Andrus](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2894196) and all, thanks for the comments. As [@Brittany Joiner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1692248) suggested, the auto-watch for due date feature is to make sure cards with due dates don't slip through the cracks. You may know this; at one point we tested auto-watch for all cards created, and that seemed way too noisy (we turned that off after a few days). This due date version of auto-watch seems like a better balance but we know it still isn't ideal for some users. We will continue to try and improve the behavior, as well as other behavior surrounding due dates. Please stay tuned for more updates!


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Catie Andrus](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2894196) this experiment is still running for some users, your feedback has been passed onto the Trello team via this thread, thanks for commenting. I for one hope they don't roll this feature out!!


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Catie Andrus](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2894196) I think this is an experiment the team were running, I'm surprised it's still running for some, I'll check why and get back to you


author: Brittany Joiner
body: Not sure I understand the issue? I don't believe I have auto-watch when I add a due date to a card. Are you talking about getting notifications for the due date? If so, I actually find that really helpful because I typically add a due date because I want Trello to remind me about a date.

Update a notification using mywork REST API
Asked by VS:

Hi!

I'm currently working on a small notification system within Jira using the REST informations in Confluence. I need to get the notification and edit them without any sort of confluence authentification so I can only use the rest endpoints that support a bypass.

The fetching is working great however I can't get the updating working. I'm using the [Notifications and Tasks REST API](https://docs.atlassian.com/mywork-confluence-host-plugin/REST/1.1-build22/#id307947).

* GET: /rest/mywork/latest/notification?os_authType=all\&bypass=myUsername
* POST: /rest/mywork/latest/notification?os_authType=all\&bypass=myUsername

I don't feel the need to share some code because even a request in Postman isn't working. Using a POST only create a notification even though the documentation mention it creates and update.

Ultimately I want to change the read value from false to true but it only creates a new notification instead of updating.

I've tried to send the whole notification with the read value changed in the body but it still creates a new one.

Hopefully someone can help me, thanks a lot! Have a great day

It sounds like you're needing steps on how to add a link to an image within a Confluence page. Here are the steps to do this:

1. Add an image to a page
2. Click on the image
3. Select the 'Link' icon
4. Type or paste the link
5. Hit enter
6. Publish the page

change userid by script
Asked by Joe Budzowski:

We are migrating our Confluence spaces to an instance that uses a different format for username. Example we use frank.smith new systems uses fsmith.

Our production server uses Crowd to authenticate against a Windows AD server.

My strategy to resolve the name issus was to:

Export/import the spaces to a migration server without external authorization

Use CLI to create local user accounts that match external accounts

Rename the local userids of the accounts to be the userids of the new server

Export the spaces for import into the target instance.

I'm manually renamed some the the userids and it seems to do what I want, changing authorship/ownership of pages/attachments. However, I don't see a way to rename 200+ accounts in bulk. This is a process I will need to repeat several times.

Any ideas on how to script this task?


Answers:
author: Joe Budzowski
body: I did find a plugin for only $230 that could change Confluence usernames in bulk, however the plugin is no longer sold for Confluence server!

automatically assign tasks in my personal space to me
Asked by Antony Quinn:

I love that Confluence pulls all my tasks from across the site and puts them in a single task list automatically. However, when I create tasks in my personal space I have to also assign all of these tasks to me for them to also appear in this collated list, which is a bit of a chore. Is there a way to get these tasks to either automatically appear in the single task list or when I create a task in my personal space it autocompletes with my name first?


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Antony Quinn](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/358608)

Pages in personal spaces act the same as all other pages. You will need to Ssign the task to yourself when you create it to get it to show as you are requesting.

Are you adding the user to an AD group or a Confluence group? My guess it is to an AD group which you will not be able to do unless you have it setup to allow you to do so on the directory settings in Confluence which is not common.

Variables in Issues or tests
Asked by Nikolaos Vlassis:

Hello everyone,

we are using Jira at work and we oft we have the problem that, for example, if a name or something has to be changed on the issues or tests, we have to do it manually for all the thousands issues that we have write. For example. we use a name for a product (NIKISA) and we have it as title for many issues (NIKISA Bug in first floor) etc. Let's say that we have to change the name (NIKISA) to all the issues at once. How can we do it ? Now we are opening all issues one by one and we change it manually.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: That's not really what the summary is for. If you're classifying issues under a product like NIKISA, you probably should be using a select-list, component or possibly a label for it - these are a lot more reportable than a fuzzy search of the summary, and, more importantly, are a doddle to rename globally (without it even showing up as an edit!)

comments: author: Nikolaos Vlassis
body: thanks for your answer. So that means there is no way to make it, right ?


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Correct, there's no support for that.

You'd need to find or write something that could read each summary and update it when it finds something to change.

Your main problem with coding for that is going to be finding the data. Text fields have fuzzy searches inside Jira so you may not find exactly what you expect if you use just the internal search, but more importantly, you've got the problems of misjeys and missleppings. (Exact search is why you should be using the right fields for capturing your data, not hoping people getting it right in text)

My sales people would tell me off if I didn't mention that there are tools that could help such as our Scriptrunner or Autoblocks. There are some other options for Scripting in the marketplace of course, do please take a look at them if you're going to try to script this!

Blog to pages
Asked by Dmitry Malysh:

Answers:

To revert your pages from blogs back to pages you'll need to go to the page history of each page and revert prior to the blog conversation.

My above answer was not correct, I am further investigating how to revert a converted page to a blog.

Distribution Group access
Asked by Jaclyn Haas:

HI! I need to give Confluence access to a distribution group. Is there a way to do this or do I have to grant access to each individual person? There are 700 people in the distribution group.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: How are you representing your distribution group in your user directory?

That's quite a convoluted question on its own. Confluence, somewhere, has a list of users and groups in a directory. On Cloud, that could be an internal list driven by Atlassian accounts, or Google accounts, or it could be via Atlassian Access, backed by LDAP or other directories, and so-on.

The question we've got is how your group is mapped into the directory Confluence is using for its list of users (and groups).

comments: author: Jaclyn Haas
body: Thanks for your responce [@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781454) Right now its one email address that goes to everyone on the team. like a TeamEveryone@ type address. I don't have an option to add email to the user access area. In Confluence and Jira, it just pulls up names of employees with access and you have the option to add them. Is that the only way to add everyone?


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Yes, so that's not a user or group that Confluence or Jira can use as an account or group of accounts.
