Background
Support for gadgets ended in Confluence 7.0, and we’ve completed their removal in Confluence 9.0 to reduce technical debt.
In Confluence 9.0, pages that contained gadgets show a grey 'Unknown macro' placeholder where a gadget was embedded:

External gadgets for Confluence Marketplace app
We are working to bring back the ability to embed gadgets in Confluence with the External gadgets for Confluence Data Center app. The app will specifically re-enable integration between Jira and Confluence.
We’ve made the beta version of the External gadgets for Confluence app available to partners for testing and feedback. The app is still under development and its functionality may be limited.
Download and install the app for testing
If you try the new app, share your feedback with us.
