You can use the Include Page macro to display the contents of one Confluence page or blog post in another page or blog post.

Using the Include Page Macro

To add the Include Page macro to a page:

  1. In the Confluence editor, choose Insert > Other Macros.
  2. Find and select the required macro.

Parameters

When editing, you can click on the macro placeholder and choose Edit to display the parameters for this macro in the Macro Browser.

Parameters are options that you can set for Confluence macros to control the content or format of the macro output. The table below lists parameters for this macro that can be set in the Macro Browser.

Parameter

Default

Description

Page to Include

None

This is the name of the Confluence page or blog post that you want to include in the current page.

  • If the page or blog post is located in another space, add the space key and a colon in front of the page name. For example, DOC:My page name.
  • To include a blog post, specify the date as well as the title of the blog post. For example: /2010/12/01/My blog post.
  • The space key is case sensitive.
  • You can include pages from personal spaces using ~username as the space key, where 'username' is the person's username. For example, ~jsmith:My page name.

 

Notes

  • If you want to include part of a page rather than the whole page, use the Excerpt and Excerpt Include macros.
  • To display a page's contents, you need 'View' permission for that page. Similarly, people who view the page will need 'View' permissions for the embedded page as well as the page into which it is embedded. See space permissions or contact your Confluence space administrator for more information.
  • If someone changes the name of the included page after you have added the macro to your page, the page name does not change automatically in the macro. You will need to change the page name manually in the macro parameters.
  • If you want to embed an external page into a Confluence page, you need the HTML Include Macro.
