how to get data from jira

[Len Hoffman]

I'd like to display Jira data from our Confluence site. Can this be done?

Hi @Len Hoffman you sure can do this.  Have your Jira or Confluence admin setup an application link between the two systems.  You can also ask them to setup a macro feed in Confluence to get to the dashboard gadgets in Jira as macros in Confluence.  In Confluence you'll see there are Macros for Jira/Jira Reports.

Hi @Len Hoffman 

Can you be a bit more specific? Do you want to publish data from Jira to Confluence through Automation? Do you have existing Confluence pages where you want to display datas? Is it part of a process?

I'll be glad to help you with that!

I don't know if you saw my answer but I can propose an alternative if you want to automatize or enhance the Jira -> Confluence integration.

We have an app called Publish that allows you to publish data from Jira to Confluence. You can: 

• insert any Jira issue data in the Confluence page (and keep the value synchronized between the issue and the page if needed), including the Confluence page title
• display a table with issues based on a JQL query (using the macro Jira Issues/Filters)
• use any Confluence template you need or design the page yourself
• automatically link the page to the issue
• automatically copy attachments from Jira to Confluence

And of course, our app integrates with Automation.

With Publish, no need to update your Confluence pages manually, automatize your processes and keep the content synchronized.

The app is free for 30 days, (and stays free if your instance is under 10 users), so feel free to give it a try, and don't hesitate to tell reach our Support if you have any question.
