How to integrate Rich Filter into Confluence after Atlassian removed gadgets?

[Janek Schumann]

Dear AppFire,
Dear Community,

After updating our Confluence to 9.2.0 we noticed that Atlassian removed gadgets.
Now, all our pages using - for example, but not restricted to - AppFire's Rich Filter for Jira gadgets cannot render the content:

Atlassian hasn't released the app yet:

• https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/gadgets-moved-to-a-marketplace-app-from-confluence-9-2-onwards-1431545691.html
• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-98800
  • the beta version doesn't seem to work in our configuration
  • only a limited list of product versions are compatible...
    ... and of course, we are running Jira 9.12.15, not 9.12.17 or 10.x.

Any thoughts on how to solve this?
Is there a "Rich Filter for Confluence" planned to solve this hack job of an integration going through Gadgets?

Cheers,
Janek

Hey @Janek Schumann , sorry for the late reply!

I totally get how frustrating it is to lose the native External Gadgets and not be able to continue your usual workflow.

The good news is that we’re about to release a Rich Filters extension for Confluence DC to replace External Gadgets, making it easier and more reliable to embed Rich Filters gadgets in Confluence. It’s launching on Mid-April, and we might even have a Beta available earlier. Announcements will be sent soon.

If you ever have questions or need help with anything Rich Filters related, I’d also recommend opening a support ticket—we can usually help much faster there.

Let me know if you have any questions!

@Ivan Garcia _Appfire_ - Will there be an additional charge for that extension/add-on for Confluence?

Hi @Janek Schumann 

It is best to raise a support ticket here. I am certain Appfire will advise you on how to take action as soon as possible.

I talked to some of our power users today.

I'll use that to convince people to move to Jira Dashboards instead of recreating Jira Dashboard functionality in Confluence using Gadgets. Maybe a good thing: use the right tool for the job, not the one which makes it somehow possible-ish. 😅
