The Network macro displays a list of Network activity for users in your Confluence site, on a Confluence page or blog post.

The Network macro allows you to specify the user whose network activity you wish to show. These interactions include the users that the specified user is following or users who are following the specified user. The Network macro shows each listed user by their profile picture. It also provides a choice of two themes and the ability to limit the number of users in the list.

    Can I get "the people I'm following" on a string? I need to apply a filter to activity stream by only the I'm following people (I'm following = Current user following)
