Hi

I'm working on a new tool for my team and need a bit of help.
We work for varied customers on proprietary software. 
Jira keeps track of a lot of the "who worked when on what for whom" stuff, but I need a way to store some technical details about the developments that serves as a sort of archive for future reference. 

Ideally I'd make an quick action for a ticket: fill out two fields, create a database entry from those and the ticket data and start a small workflow.
I don't want to set up a complete database just for this, so I thought I'd use the new Confluence Database feature.

It seems though that those are just tables without any added functionality.

My idea would be that a Dev with a ticket can start an action to say they have completed a Development, enter Customer/Company/Site and the components they worked on, those get send to QA and stored into an archive that can be accessed.

Did some of you solve a similar thing using just the available Cloud Tools?

Thanks in Advance!

Hi @Felix Pollmann ,

I believe Confluence databases can't do what you want at the moment.

An alternative might be to have a Confluence page template with the page properties macro, and then aggregate the data with the page properties report macro.
