Paste page titles into Confluence and auto-format as links?

I have a list of Confluence pages. I would like to paste them all into a new Confluence page and automatically create links to each page in the list. 

I have the page titles, IDs, and URLs, so I could easily paste in the page titles as hyperlinks. But when I do that, Confluence treats them as hard-coded "web links" and does not count them as outgoing links under Page Information.

I could also surround the page titles with square brackets and paste them in that way -- for example, [Page XYZ]. But when I paste in text like that, Confluence does not auto-format it to a page link. 

Is there any simple solution for this? Thanks!

Hi Susan,

Do the pages share the same hierarchy? If so you could try the Page Tree macro.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestion, Jared! The list is a subset of pages from different parts of the page hierarchy, so I don't think the Page Tree macro would quite meet the need.
