Why does the Filter Results macro periodically stop working in Confluence?

[Mike V]

This morning I went into a Confluence page, and for some inexplicable reason none of the Filter Results macros returned any results.  And yet they were working fine yesterday. 

This issue occurs periodically throughout the year and is very frustrating.  And it seems its not a new issue in the Community.

Why does this issue occur? 

- Is it due to a scheduled outage?

- Bugs? 

And what is your plan to prevent this issue occurring in the future?

Hi @Mike V ,

please could you clarify what happened on your side?

Hi Fabio ... nothing happened on our side.  I have just checked again and now the Filter Results macro's are returning data as expected. 

What happened on the Atlassian side since I logged this issue, to cause/resolve this issue?
