How to create a download button?

Ondřej Kafna January 31, 2023

I would like to create button inside the table like this:

The Attachments object does not really suit my needs as I would need to distinguish between multiple products and thus insert the attachments object several times in one page, which is not optimal.

Hi @Ondřej Kafna and welcome to the community,

Unfortunately, there’s no way to create buttons in Confluence Cloud out of the box. If you’re thinking of a workaround, we can suggest using our Handy Macros for Confluence app.

With this app, you can create clickable buttons on your pages for internal or external links. You can select the look and feel for your Handy Button as well. Please, see the example below:

We have a blog post covering the tips for adding noticeable links in Confluence and a blog post about working with documentation in Confluence Cloud. Perhaps they can be useful for you as well.

You can try the Handy Macros for Confluence app on the Atlassian Marketplace for free to see if it works for you.Our support is always happy to assist with any concerns.

Kind regards,

Anastasia

Hi @Ondřej Kafna and welcome to the community,

Out of the box you can't do that. You must have a 3rd party app like macroSuite. Then you can have something like below:

@Alex Koxaras _Relational_ Hi Alex. Thanks, I'll take a look at it. Still pretty new to Confluence, so discovering all the possibilities.

No worries. Do that! :)

Well, as it for company that has more than 10 users, then macroSuite is extra money for them and this is a low-priority stuff, thus cannot use it and need to stick with the native objects.

You can try then this free app, AI Buttons, which allegedly creates buttons using AI. I haven't tested it, but you can give it a go. It's free for all teams and more than 10 users. Seems promising!
