JIRA is the issue tracking and project management system supplied by Atlassian. The Jira Issues macro allows you to display a list of issues from a JIRA site within a page in Confluence.
In other words, if you have your own JIRA site, your Confluence page can show a list of issues from your JIRA project. You can also show a list of issues from any JIRA site to which you and your readers have access.
Screenshot: Example of JIRA Issues shown on a Confluence page
On this page:
Usage with the Macro Browser
To insert the JIRA issues macro into a page using the Macro Browser,
- Open your desired Confluence page or blog post, then click the 'Edit' button. The page or blog post opens in edit mode.
- Click the Macro Browser icon
on the toolbar. The macro browser window opens in the middle of the screen in 'macro selection' mode. - Scroll through the list of macros. Alternatively, start typing part of the name of your desired macro into the search box at the top right of the macro browser window. Macros with a matching name will appear in the main pane.
- Click on the desired macro to access its parameters and preview parameter changes ('preview mode').
- Set the macro parameters to your requirements. If desired, you can preview these changes by clicking 'Refresh'.
- Click 'Insert' to put the macro into the page.
Once you've found the JIRA issues macro, click 'insert' to add it to your page.
Usage with the Wiki Markup Editor
The basic syntax is:
{jiraissues:url=<URL of your JIRA XML view>}
Displaying a List of JIRA Issues on a Confluence Page
Step 1 — Obtain the URL of the Issue Filter
- Log in to your JIRA system.
- Go to the 'Issues' screen and create a new filter. Do not modify an existing filter.
This is the 'Find Issues' screen in JIRA 3.13.x and earlier. - Set up your search parameters and use 'View' to check the issues returned.
- Once the filter is finished, go to the Filter's 'View' tab/section in the top-left area of the JIRA interface.
- Copy the XML link. To do this, follow the appropriate steps below:
- If you are using JIRA 4.0.x or later:
- Click the 'Views' menu and use this menu to copy the XML link to your clipboard. For example, right-click the 'XML' menu item and choose the right-click menu option for copying that link.
- Click the 'Views' menu and use this menu to copy the XML link to your clipboard. For example, right-click the 'XML' menu item and choose the right-click menu option for copying that link.
- If you are using JIRA 3.13.x or earlier:
- Locate the 'Current View' links section (see example below) and find the 'XML' link.
- Copy the 'XML' link to your clipboard.
- Locate the 'Current View' links section (see example below) and find the 'XML' link.
- If you are using JIRA 4.0.x or later:
Step 2 — Embed the Issue Filter URL onto your Confluence Page
- Log in to your Confluence system.
- Edit the page where you wish to display the list of JIRA issues.
- Type the following text into a new line at the appropriate location:
{jiraissues:url=CONTENT} - Replace 'CONTENT' with the JIRA filter URL from your clipboard.
- Customise the macro output by adding optional parameters. See below.
- Save the Confluence page.
Parameters
Parameters are options that you can include in Confluence macros to control the content or format of the macro output. The table below lists relevant parameters for this macro.
Parameter names are different in the macro browser and in wiki markup. Below we show the macro browser parameter names in bold text, and the equivalent wiki markup parameters in (bracketed) text. If we do not show any parameter name for the wiki markup, then you should leave out the parameter name and simply include the parameter value as the first parameter, immediately after the colon (:).
The JIRA Issues macro allows the following parameters:
| Parameter | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anonymous Retrieval (anonymous) |
no | false | If this parameter is set to 'true', JIRA will return only the issues which allow unrestricted viewing i.e. the issues which are visible to anonymous viewers, as determined by JIRA's viewing restrictions. If this parameter is omitted or set to 'false', then the results depend on how your administrator has configured the communication between JIRA and Confluence. By default, Confluence will show only the JIRA issues which the user is authorised to view. See more details below. |
| (baseurl) | no | The value of the 'url' parameter | If you specify a 'baseurl', then the link in the header, pointing to your JIRA site, will use this base URL instead of the value of the 'url' parameter. This is useful when Confluence connects to JIRA with a different URL from the one used by other users. |
| JIRA Field Columns to Display (columns) |
no | By default, the following columns are shown:
|
A list of JIRA column names, separated by semi-colons (;). Example columns are: key, summary, type, created, fixversion, updated, due, assignee, reporter, priority, status and resolution. You can include any columns recognised by your JIRA site, including custom columns. |
| Display Total Numbers Only (count) |
no | false | If this parameter is set to 'true', the issue list will show the number of issues in JIRA. The count will be linked to your JIRA site. |
| Cache (cache) |
no | on | The macro maintains a cache of the issues which result from the JIRA query. If the 'cache' parameter is set to 'off', the relevant part of the cache is cleared each time the macro is reloaded. (The value 'false' also works and has the same effect as 'off'.) |
| Height (Pixel Value Only) (height) |
no | 480 | The height in pixels of the table displaying the JIRA issues. Note that this height specification is ignored in the following situations:
|
| (renderMode) | no | In formats not mentioned below, the default is 'dynamic'. The default is 'static' when the JIRA issues are displayed in a PDF or Word document, in an email message or in an RSS feed. |
By default, the JIRA Issues macro offers a dynamic display with the following features:
|
| Title (title) |
no | JIRA Issues | You can customise the title text at the top of the JIRA issues table with this parameter. For instance, setting the title to 'Bugs-to-fix' will replace the default 'JIRA Issues' text. This can help provide more context to the list of issues displayed. |
| URL (url) |
yes | none | The URL of the XML view of your selected issues in JIRA Issue Navigator. Note: If the URL in the 'url' parameter does not contain a tempMax argument, then the value of tempMax will default to 500. If your JIRA server is version 3.12 or earlier, this means that the JIRA Issues macro will return a maximum of 500 issues. If your JIRA server is version 3.13 or later, a value of 500 means that the JIRA Issues macro will return a maximum of 500 issues per page. |
| Width (width) |
no | 100% | The width of the table displaying the JIRA issues. Can be indicated either as a percentage (%) or in pixels (px). |
Issues Displayed a Page at a Time
If you are using JIRA 3.13 or later, the JIRA Issues macro will retrieve and show a 'page' of issues at a time. The buttons underneath the table allow you to move to the next or previous page, or to the start or end of the list. The number of issues retrieved per page is determined by the url parameter — see the description of the macro parameters above.
If your version of JIRA is 3.12 or earlier, the JIRA Issues macro will retrieve all the issues at once and display them as a single 'page'.
Example
Below is an example of some macro markup code, requesting a list of issues from the Atlassian public JIRA site:
{jiraissues:anonymous=true|url=http://jira.atlassian.com/sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest-xml/temp/SearchRequest.xml?&query=jiraissues&summary=true&description=true&body=true&pid=10470&tempMax=10|columns=type;key;summary}
The example code contains three parameters (see above parameter table for their meanings):
- anonymous=true
- url=<a long URL derived from the XML view of a JIRA filter>
- columns=type;key;summary
Below are the results of the above macro markup, displayed on this Confluence page:
Displaying Issues which have Restricted Viewing
Maybe your JIRA instance is not visible to anonymous visitors — everyone has to log in before they can see JIRA issues. Or maybe some of the JIRA issues are restricted to viewing by certain users only. This section explains how to handle JIRA issues that have restricted viewing.
Using Confluence-to-JIRA Trusted Communication (Recommended)
For Confluence 2.7.0 and later and JIRA 3.12 and later, your administrator can set up trusted communication between Confluence and JIRA. The entire process is described in the Confluence Administrator's Guide. Provided that your administrator has set up trusted communication, you don't need to add any extra parameters. Confluence and JIRA will work out the security between them, ensuring that the user will see only the issues they are authorised to see. Read the section below if you want more detail.
 | Remove the username and password from your macro markup code Prior to Confluence 2.7, you needed to include a username and password in the macro markup code if you wanted to display JIRA issues which had restricted viewing. Once your administrator has set up trusted communication between Confluence and JIRA, you no longer need to include a username and password in the markup code for your JIRA macros. |
The following options are available for determining the issues which will be retrieved from JIRA and displayed on the Confluence page:
| What you want to do | Macro parameter | URL parameter | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Display the JIRA issues which the logged-in user is authorised to see. And if the user is not logged in, display only issues which allow unrestricted viewing. | Do not specify any authentication parameters. In this case, the behaviour depends on the way your administrator has set up trusted communication between JIRA and Confluence. Here is a summary of the behaviour. If trusted communication is enabled, the authorisation will work seamlessly. When a logged-in user views your page, they will see only the JIRA issues they are allowed to see. And if they are not logged in, they will see only the issues which allow unrestricted viewing. If trusted communication is disabled, the Confluence page will show only the JIRA issues which allow unrestricted viewing. | ||
| Ensure that Confluence will display only the JIRA issues which allow unrestricted viewing. | anonymous | Regardless of who the user is (logged in or not), the Confluence page will show only anonymously-visible issues. Confluence will not attempt to set up a trusted communication link with JIRA in this case. | |
| Use a pre-determined username and password to access the JIRA issues. | &os_username=MYNAME&os_password=MYPASSWORD | Not recommended. Prior to Confluence 2.7, this was the only way of displaying issues with restricted viewing. For Confluence 2.7 and later, this method will still work. Confluence will not attempt to set up a trusted communication link with JIRA in this case. |
Specifying Username and Password in the JIRA URL (Not Recommended)
If you have not set up trusted communication between JIRA and Confluence and if your JIRA issues have restricted viewing (i.e. JIRA requires a login before allowing access to the issues), then you need to type a JIRA username and password into the macro markup code and save it onto the Confluence page.
Append the following parameters to the end of the search URL:
&os_username=MYNAME&os_password=MYPASSWORD
where MYNAME is a JIRA username and MYPASSWORD is the corresponding password for that username. This username and password should not include an ampersand (&) symbol.
Troubleshooting
HTTPS
The JIRA Issues macro can access a JIRA instance running under SSL as long as the Confluence server is set to accept the JIRA SSL certificate. Refer to the Confluence Knowledge Base article for more information about problems connecting to SSL services.

It may be that you only need to go into JIRA, manage your filters, and mark this particular one as shared (or global or whatever). Else, you need to look up the method of passing credentials in your jiraissues macro call – but you could instead try Setting Up Trusted Communication between JIRA and Confluence with an updated Confluence.

No CA = untrusted certificate = no ssl connection. If you have a self-signed cert, just import that instead. Oh, and the SSL server FQDN does match the CN of the certificate, right?
In addition to importing into the trust store you may need to explicitly identify its location and passphrase to open it. Default JRE trust store location is JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts. changeit is the default JRE password, really.
Get the signer cert (exercise for the student
) and do this from the security folder:

We tried to add a single Issue through the jiraissues macro, which has a different url than the issue list ( /si/jira.issueviews:issue-xml instead of /sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest )
That URL was not allowed per default in the "URL Paths to Allow" option, and thus the macro was returning that error message.

when in jira looking at the issue navigator list you want, sort by assignees there before copying the xml url. (if you only have the xml url at this point, you can find the jira issue navigator link if you visit the xml and look at the contents of the first "link" element.) when you then use the new xml url with the jiraissues macro, the results should be sorted by assignee.

I get almost identical results against 3.12.3 and 3.13, both Jira instances setup to trust the Confluence 2.9.1 server. At the bottom of the macro UI, I see text relating to the quantity of results, I see Displaying 1 to 20 of 20 items or Displaying 1 to 40 of 40 items. I think this means data is being retrieved but not rendered.

The jiraissues macro does seem to work well now that we have trusted communications set up (Jira Enterprise Version 3.12.1 Build Number 299, confluence 2.8 enterprise); however not all the icons show up properly for the field type and priority. Looking at the html I see for the issues that it does show up for the hmtl looks like: src="https:ourservice/jira/images/icons/issue_subtask.gif; whereas for the ones that don't show up we have <img src="$icons.get( $item.getChild('type').getValue() )".
Note that on Safari I see a broken image link. On Firefox I get the type or priority text as a hyperlink.
Thoughts on what's going on? I suspect that the type and priority that aren't showing up are ones we created in JIRA, but we're using the default icons w/in JIRA so I'm curious about what we need to do to have the icons appear.

This error occurs when the macro has trouble parsing the XML returned from JIRA. This can occur if the url given to the macro points to something it shouldn't, but it could also mean the macro is encountering valid XML that it isn't expecting for some reason. We should probably have better handling of these cases...
Two common ways for this to occur:
If the above cases aren't the problem, please create an issue about this, including your JIRA Macros Plugin version and ideally the macro syntax you are using and the XML file that is returned by JIRA when you visit the url given in the url parameter.

I entered width and height parameters. The height parameter seems to word, but the width has no impact to the display of the list in a confluence wiki page.
It would be very usefull I could define a maximum width and height.

Basically, generate a dynamic filter at page load time, rather than having to reference a pre-made filter in JIRA?
For example, it would be nice to have a filter for "show me the issues marked 'closed' for user in the pastdays".
Then, in some Confluence page, do
{jiraissues:url=|username=Bob|numdays=30}or
{jiraissues:url=|username=Frank|numdays=7}It appears to me the answer is "no, neither {jiraissues} nor JIRA itself can do that". Without this capability, I'd have to create separate filters in JIRA for "Bob @ 30 days" and "Frank @ 7 days", which is not desireable. Is that a correct assessment? Where would I create such a feature request? It would greatly improve Confluence<->JIRA integration, in my opinion...

If you wish to modify your JIRA Issues macro filter with the specific parameters you have described, you currently have to recreate the JIRA query as described in step 1 above.
When you create a JIRA query with your specific filters, the parameter-value pairs that represent each specific filter will be present in the XML link URL. If you make a note of these parameter-value pairs, you could insert them directly into the URL contained within your {jiraissues} command in Confluence. However, be aware that we currently do not support this approach.

you are correct that the older version of the jira issues macro did not have this issue, because it wasn't dynamic and was using a different ui. you can force the old style ui to be used with the renderMode=static parameter, but you will lose the new dynamic features. you might instead use the height parameter to manually set the height you'd like.

Confusingly, it is just the error when his comment tries to render an example macro with incorrect syntax.
However, there was another issue for the problem you describe: CONFJIRA-154. (BTW, you'll notice that the issue was fixed by improving the error messages, so you may be able to get a better error message by upgrading your plugin version.) If you can't find the problem from that issue, you'll want to create a support request so our support team can help diagnose your individual situation.

What you describe sounds like it could be a bug. If you can provide more details, we can investigate it further. You can create an issue in the Jira Macros Plugin project. Please provide the macro syntax you are using and a saved copy of the XML that you get when visiting the location in the url parameter. If this information should be private, you can mention that in the issue and mark the security level as "Reporters and Developers".
However, note that the latest version of the macro is not compatible with Confluence 2.9.x and there have been many bugfixes and new features since the older macro version was created. So, we may find that the best solution to your problem is to upgrade Confluence and the macro.

What I meant by "nicely" is in confluence 2.9 the summary field does not take over the whole space, you can see the other colums - it seems like the size of the summary column is dynamic and shrinks so the other columns can be displayed on the screen. With 2.10 version if summary if the first colum it fills the display window and you have scroll to see the other columns, So we have to place the other columns ahead of the summary column. In some instances that works ok, but in other places it makes the information a bit awkward in presentation.
Does that make sense?

Cheryl Jerozal says:
Hi Patrick~ The summary field is not supposed to take over the whole space, it ...Hi Patrick~
The summary field is not supposed to take over the whole space, it is just supposed to take up some of it. "Some" is calculated based on the width the macro detects, but it does not always do a good job detecting the width, particularly in certain situations. For example, when the toc macro is being used the space the toc macro takes isn't subtracted from the width available to the jira issues macro. Perhaps you are experiencing the bug I have described. If not, it would be great to get a bug report from you in the CONFJIRA project.

jiraissues macro does downloading and extracting the data from an xml (if you click xml link from the issue navigator). By default, the xml link does not display the value of fullname but it does display username only. That's why jiraissues cannot display the fullname because the data is not there. In order to make jiraissues can display the fullname, you need to modify behavior of jira (customize jira core code) so that when you click the link xml (to generate an the data in xml format), it will give you fullname.

I can immaginge a couple possibilities:
* Flag to ensure that All fields have SOME of the realestate
* Ability to specify column widths/%'s
Right now the table is big enough that it can not be reaonably displayed on out monitors.

The problem is that when you have say a long description and a long summary, the actual content is more than will fit in the width of the page. What I want to do is force word wrap in a column (say description) so that a user only need to scroll vertically to see all of the content of the table.
As is stands now, the user will have to scroll both horizontally and vertically to see the entire table.

Jira Enterprise Edition, Version: 3.13.2-#335
Trusted relationship has been set up between JIRA and CONFLUENCE.
Imbedded Macro URL:

Issues:
Click on TYPE, KEY, or SUMMARY column two things happen:
1. JIRA is requiring a login
2. Back arrow to CONFLUENCE requiring a login.
Questions:
1. How do I eliminate the login requirement?
2. How do I eliminate the back arrow requirement?

The macro should work in Confluence 3.0, because the plugin that contains it is supported for that version. (And I can confirm that it works for me personally.) So if you are having problems perhaps there is a Confluence bug or a configuration issue occurring. I see you've created a support case, and that is great because support should be able to help track this down.

As we're getting more and more people on board we'd like to tidy up the URLs. So we plan on moving both Confluence and JIRA onto Port80 and we'll probably move to a more meaningful URL.
We use the jiraissues extensively and so we'll have to edit a lot of pages to fix up the URLs.
Between now and when we do the URL tidying is there a way to soft code the Jira URL in the Jira Issues macro? A sort of extension to the short cut links? What is best practice? (Other than getting it right to begin with).

Thak you for this great stuff.
I'm having a problem here, we have some custom field using datepicker data type, it's showing fine on the page view.
but, when we try to send the page by email, it will showing a complete formate datetime just like this : Wed, 21 Oct 2009 00:00:00 +0800 (SGT)
also on the received email
is there anyway we can fix it in our side? or is it a bug?
the second problem,
I was creating a filter and forgot to add the share, and then the macro won't showing the issues event after I add the share, and i have to create a new filter to have it showing correctly. in other case, the issue not showing all the issues ont the filter, which is also fixed by creating a new filter. is there any synchronization problem on this macro?
Regards
Fahmi

Hope it helps. Please give them a try.

I haven't seen it documented anywhere (I'm hoping it's there, but just not documented): is there a way to tell jiraissues to only show an arbitrary list/set of issues? i.e. show me QA-453, SYS-4432 and SYS-4431 only? They way I do it now is I just make sure I can search that set of JIRA issues, and that use that "XML link".

As far as I'm aware, there are no other parameters of this macro (apart from the url one) that you can use to control the filtering of results retrieved from a JIRA site.
Furthermore, you should probably only restrict your results using the search and querying tools in JIRA itself (i.e. the way you're currently doing so), since the XML link is generated from these JIRA searches and queries. Editing this XML link to filter your result could be quite tricky and not a recommended approach.
If you would like to see filtering features introduced into the JIRA issues macro, please raise a New Feature request on our JIRA site.
Another suggestion, you could also request that the administrator of your Confluence site configure shortcut links to your JIRA site. Hence, if they configured a shortcut link key of JIRA with an expanded value of http://<URL of your JIRA site>/secure/QuickSearch.jspa?searchString=, then you could use [QA-453@JIRA] to create a Confluence link which leads directly to that issue on your JIRA site.
Hope this information helps and kind regards,
Giles Gaskell.
