Confluence 1.4 has reached end of life
Check out the [latest version] of the documentation
The Jira Issues macro displays a list of JIRA issues in a page.
To do this, you need to include the url of the JIRA search filter in your page in Confluence.
To retrieve a jira_rss_url,
- Perform a search in JIRA. At the top of the Issue Navigator page, you will see various available views for that filter. See Screenshot 1.
- Right click on XML and copy its link location. See Screenshot 2.
- Paste the url in your page in Confluence.
You can also customize the list of issues and the order of the columns being displayed by specifying a columns parameter. Use a semi-colon delimited list to specify which of the jira columns you want included and in what order you want them presented.
JIRA column names include:
- Key
- Summary
- Type
- Created
- Updated
- Assignee
- Reporter
- Priority
- Status
- Resolution
Example
{jiraissues:url=http://jira.atlassian.com/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?view=rss&pid=10470&fixfor=10650&sorter/field=issuekey&sorter/order=DESC&tempMax=25&reset=true
|columns=type;key;summary}
will result in:
Screenshot 1 : Issue Navigator views
Screenshot 2 : Copy to clipboard
Warning
Some issue feeds in JIRA can only be accessed if the user has the necessary rights in the JIRA project for which those issues belong. Hence when you paste that URL in Confluence, you will need to append your login information at the end of the URL, so that JIRA knows who is requesting the feed and is able to check permissions accordingly. That is,
{jiraissues:url=http://host.com/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?
.... &os_username=username&os_password=password}
Failing to do this will result in a "Error rendering macro" error.
