Use Confluence Template/page in Rule action

Once your Confluence template/page Create page/template within Confluence is ready, it's finally time to push your release notes to Confluence that are compatible with the v2/new Confluence editor!

Create Rule

Navigate to the Rules tab under Automated Release Notes app. One can create the Rule from In-project/Cross-project screens. All the steps are same in terms of how to create Rules. Once you have saved the Rule, notice a new Action showing up called Publish to Confluence (with new editor), and click on it.

Create Action

In case of the action, it is the same as creating an action for any other templates as explained here. A few differentiating fields we have added in this action are below -

  • Confluence Instance - Select the relevant Confluence instance that has the ARN Helper app and is properly integrated via Token.

  • Select source template - Here one can use Confluence templates or pages as templates.

    Select space -

    -

    • Select space - Seelect the relavant space where you have created a page/template

  • Select a confluence page as a template - Select the page where you have added JQL section macro/s and any other content for publishing release notes.

#BestPractices

  • Now this page will work as a template. To avoid duplicate page errors in logs, in page title use variables like [timeStamp], [releaseDate], [fixVresion], etc.

  • So everytime you when rule is executed, real-time values will be fetched for given variable to create the unique title of the page.

  • Select a confluence template -

    • If you have created a Global Confluence template, select Global confluence templates option in Space field.

    • If you have created a Local template or want to select a Confluence page as a template, then select the relevant Space where you have created a template/page.

    • Then select the Select a template from confluence - Select the template/page that confluence template radio button option and then search for the template you have created using ARN helper app macro.

Here we had created a Global template called ‘Demo Helper App Macro’, so we have selected that. Read more
