I have created a page which provides a weekly status update. I would like to automate the process of sending the email from confluence. 

Is it possible that system auto Screengrabs the page or converts the page into a PDF and sends the pdf it to group in an email as per scheduler.

Hi @aarti_pajan  - I have not tried this before; however you could potentially have a couple of options that you can explore to automate the conversion of a confluence page to pdf and automatically send it out via an email

  1. Explore marketplace plugins like ScriptRunner for Confluence & using groovy scripting or Better PDF exporter or scroll pdf exporter etc. 
    1. You could search through Atlassian marketplace to see all the range of options that you could potentially leverage but encourage you to do your due diligence before finalising a 3rd party app to ensure it meets your requirements
    2. At the end, you would have to write some custom scripts to achieve this
  2. Custom script with REST API to extract the content from confluence, covert it into pdf using conversion utilities, email the pdf using mail server or SMTP integration & schedule a job to send out an email using AWS lambda or Jenkins etc.
  3. Automation for Confluence could achieve this partially, but you would have to try it out once as I believe there would be come restrictions in how much you can achieve
