Page Properties Macro
Don't forget to add a label to your page, or your page will not appear in the Page Properties Report macro.
Next you need to add the Page Properties Report macro to another page.

Using multiple Page Properties macros on one page
You can add multiple Page Properties macros on a single page, and choose whether to include all or only specific macros in the report. You might use multiple macros because you want the information in the macro to display in context with the rest of the page, or because you want to be able to report on individual Page Properties macros separately.
The Page Properties macro includes an optional ID parameter that can be used to identify specific Page Properties macros.
To show the contents of all Page Properties macros in the report:
- Add a label to the page containing the Page Properties macros.
- Specify this label in the Page Properties Report macro.
To show the contents of selected Page Properties macros in the report:
- Add a label to the page containing the Page Properties macros.
- Specify an ID in the Page Properties macro that you want to report on.
- Specify both the label and ID in the Page Properties Report macro.
Note: The Page Properties Report macro can only accept one page label, and one ID.
See the Page Properties macro in action in How to document product requirements in Confluence. This powerful macro lets you create a summary page that pulls in information from multiple pages.
Parameters
Parameters are options that you can set to control the content or format of the macro output. Where the parameter name used in Confluence storage format or wikimarkup is different to the label used in the macro browser, it will be listed below in brackets (example).
Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
Page Properties ID | (None) | Optional ID used to identify a particular Page Properties macro on a page. Specify this ID in the Page Properties Report to include summary information from macros with this ID only. |
| Hidden | False | Determines whether the data in the Page Properties macro will be displayed on the current page. This setting does not affect the display of the detail in the Page Properties Report macro. |
Notes
- You can't use text formatting or macros in the left column as the data in this column is used to populate the column headings in your Page Properties Report macro.
- If your table has a header row, this row will be ignored by the Page Properties Report macro. You should remove the header row.
- It is not possible to reference the metadata using the metadata key from within the page, or anywhere else on a Confluence page.
