Would it be easier if the Card description looks like at picture. This way I have no issues with consecutive blanks, but in this case I am introducing a blank line. How to skip blank line?

Also, the formatting (BOLD) is adding \*\* before and after the label. Is Butler taking \*\* as a part of the pattern?

I am already modifying email to make it easier for import into Trello and any further editing would make the process way to manual.

In terms of the markdown - I am aware of. But again, removing formatting adds manual work...:-(

More of a long-shot knowing several database systems could have problems with Unicode characters I am wondering which database you are using?

MySQL or example states unicode characters are supported when using utf8mf4 encoding.

Archiving pages on Confluence Server
Asked by Mohamad Denno:

HI Team

Is this functionality available on Confluence Server and if so how do we get access to it?


Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Mohamad Denno](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4256478) ,

as said by [@Mayur Jadhav](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4290135) , this is a functionality for a Cloud instance. Btw, you can use page restriction or, alternatively, you can trash a page. That page will be maintained in the trash and if necessary you could restore it.

Hope this helps,

body: Hi [@Mohamad Denno](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4256478) ,

Hope you are doing good!!

The feature is not available in the confluence server as of now. But If you wish to archive selected pages within a space, you can do so through page restrictions.

Atlassian has created in details document, please go through it and implement the same.

How can I import .ReqIF file format and excel format in confluence cloud?
Asked by rbalamu2:

How can I import .ReqIF file format and excel format in confluence cloud?  

Help me please!


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: From memory, .reqif files are xml based files for exchanging requirement documentats.

Confluence is not a requirements management tool (although some do use it for requirements), so there's nowhere to import most of the data to.

You could attach the raw files, but if that's not good enough, you'll need to find or write something that can convert the XML into something more suitable for Confluence.

author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: There isn't one.

There are a couple for Server, but that's not a solution for you if you're going to be doing this repeatedly. (If it's a one-off, you could fire up a development Confluence, add requirements Yogi and the ReqIf importer, run the imports, then migrate it into your Cloud system, but I'm not sure if that would get everything you want from the files)


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Oh, I would also strongly recommend a look at "requirements yogi" for Confluence Cloud if you're trying to use Confluence for requirement management.

Thanks for your reply. We are trying to explore if we can use confluence as requirement management tool. For that, we will be adding our initial requirement as req1 and proceed with software development and testing parallelly keeping req1 as the initial requirement. After some point, they will create req2 and software/testing team will follow req2.   

so we need both req1 and req2 as different versions but once its published it shouldn't be able to edit.

Thanks,

Rahini

Epic Link in confluence
Asked by Assaf Eitan:

Hi all,

I have been trying to add an issue to the confluence - **this works just fine**

**then** to link that issue with other issues (epic/or other issues) , I saw that there **was** a way when creating the new issue - to click on a box to "Link to Epic" but I can't see it when trying to create a new issue.

Does anyone knows why?

Or if someone knows how can I link an issue from confluence to an epic or other issues?

Thanks in advanced,

Assaf


Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Assaf Eitan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4764638) ,

if you use JIRA Issue macro, then you can link just an issue to a confluence page.

If you want to have a set of issue within your page you should use JIRA Issues Macro with a JQL inside that retrieves epic and linked issues.

Example :

```
key = EMEA-2459 OR "Epic Link" = EMEA-2459 OR issue IN subtasksOf(' "Epic Link" = EMEA-2459 ')
```

where EMEA-2459 is the key of your epic.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

comments: author: Assaf Eitan
body: Hi [@Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781528) thanks for the answer!

From what I understand what you are suggesting here is to only view in my confluence page the issues that are linked to my epic,

What Im trying to get - is the way to create from scratch an issue on my confluence and link it to an epic from my confluence page,

Is it possible ?

Thanks!

Assaf


author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Assaf Eitan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4764638) ,

from confluence you can create an issue in a fast way (<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEMDz0D4JmE>) but not all fields of a jira creation screen will be displayed.

My suggestion is to use jql in a JIRA Issue macro as suggested previously and create your issue directly in JIRA.

Confluence Button Marco issue
Asked by Sindhu Pullapantula:

I used the Button macro in Confluence to create a button and inserted a URL in the Destination URL text box.

I used an online PDF as the destination URL.

When I used the "open in New tab" checkbox, the resulting page shows error:

*This page has been blocked by Chrome*  
*ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT*  
However, when I uncheck the "open in New tab" checkbox, and right click the button and select "open in new tab", I do not see the error and I am able to view the browser PDF.  
I wanted to know if the issue is from the macro end or with the browser PDF.  
Thanks.


Answers:
author: Jessica
body: Hi Sindhu,

Hope you are doing well!  

I was checking out our Confluence macros (the natives ones) and we don't have any macro to create a button.  

However, we do want to confirm with you if you are using a third-party macro or perhaps it is just the name and we might have missed something. :)  

Could you share with us more details or even a screenshot of this macro you are using?  
If this is a third-party macro and you know from which one it is, we can also test on our side to double check it.   

We'll be looking forward to your reply!  

Cheers,

ios app restrictions
Asked by Adrian Roberts:

Hi

We are looking to put domain login restrictions on the iOS and Android Confluence cloud apps. We do run WorkSpace1 as our MDM solution so have the functionality to apply restrictions if they are available. This is usually done through layering an xml configuration over the app management.  

We wish to restrict login from those devices to just @OURDOMAIN.COM email addresses if possible. Any pointers as to how to get this done?

Cheers


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: I am not sure I understand the question, could you explain where you are trying to apply restrictions?

To explain where I'm confused, imagine you have a Confluence Cloud system, and a human with an Android 'phone who might want to use the Confluence app to connect to your Confluence Cloud.

Are you trying to restrict

* logins to your Confluence to accounts that belong to @ourdomain.com email addresses,
* the android app so that the user cannot use the app to log into other Confluence systems
* the Confluence system to accounts that are connecting via the app instead of a browser

comments: author: Adrian Roberts
body: Sorry for the delayed response.

In this case specifically restricting the app on the device so users can only use an @OURDOMAIN.COM email address to log in. We are trying to prevent possible data egress by stopping people logging into other confluence accounts and pasting large amounts of data into it.


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Ok, you will have to write your own app to do that, and, of course, lock down people's 'phones so they can't install other apps.

Page layout section messed up by using javascript with innerHTML
Asked by NKS:

Hi everyone

A simple macro kills the page layout when sections are used.

The macro:

*** ** * ** ***

## @noparams

\<div id="ToBeFilled"\>\</div\>

\<script\>  
var dicontent = 'Lorem';  
document.getElementById("ToBeFilled").innerHTML = dicontent;  
\</script\>

*** ** * ** ***

The layout of the page in the edit mode:

![edit_layout.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/199873iA2CD34F598229143/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "edit_layout.jpg")

And the layout of the page after clicking on "Update":

![page_layout.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/199874i6E7C0D3A7B49147E/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "page_layout.jpg")

If there are none or only one section, everything works fine. If there are two or more, all sections after the macro are messed up. The section with the macro is displayed on the left, the rest on the right.

I don't understand why this happens like this and therefore I don't know how to solve it. I think there is a problem with the "innerHTML", but I don't know what exactly and how to avoid it.

Is anyone out there who could help me?

Thanks a lot and best regards

body: This is just a test page right? Can you go to the advanced options ellipses at the top right of the published page and click 'View Page Storage Format'  

I recently had a project where I was setting up pages from code and api requests and learned about macros a bit more. That kind of function is what happens when you use the page layout options OR use a section macro and put two column macros in it from what I understand. The regular page layout appears to be just a GUI friendly way to show the macros, as using the section and column macros nested looks pretty messy in the editor.  

The storage format for the page would be helpful to figure it out

Which confluence users are not actively using Confluence?
Asked by Matt Lane:

I have recently been doing an audit on product licenses. I found there was a number of staff members currently on the list of those with Confluence licences who when I am viewing their "Last seen" data information for the product it says they have "Never accessed".

Now for some of these people I know this is totally incorrect, as many are in my Department and I know they have accessed and used Confluence. Even if they have not necessarily published pages themselves or been a contributor to a page, they have used Confluence to view pages that were published by other staff.

So my question is this...

How can I found out which of these staff are not actively accessing Confluence pages at all?

e.g. I want to know who hasn't been using their Confluence licence in the past 6 months, so that we can reclaim unused licences.
