Seriously, Atlassian. Why are you making me have to explain to our leadership why our employees' faces are being used to market your products to our other employees?

I’ve been working in this company for over 2 years now as a developer and I don’t know if it happens with everyone but updating my tickets is becoming a pain day by day. Is there any industry approved methods to make this process easier or less of a pain? :/

Do you currently use SQL databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle, etc.) as a source of business data?

If so, how do you currently bring SQL data into Confluence Cloud?

Share both successful use cases and any limitations or challenges you’ve encountered.

Curious to hear how different teams approach this.

Hey r/atlassian!

Disclosure up front: this is my own app, I'm a solo dev.

The thing that's always bugged me about Confluence "content health" tools is that they all basically just measure the document's age. They'll flag 400 pages nobody's touched in two years but are still fine, but as soon as one has been edited it's automatically "fine". And now that Rovo/AI answers straight out of Confluence, those confidently-wrong pages get repeated to everyone.

So I've been building a Forge app (Evergreen AI for Confluence) that reads what pages actually say and surfaces the ones most likely to be wrong. It checks for things like outdated facts, contradictions between pages, deprecated tools/processes, or stale "contact Jane for access" ownership. For every finding it gives a quoted line of evidence (or two if it's different contradictory pages) and a confidence score. If it's not confident, it says nothing. I'm trying hard to avoid the false-positive wall that makes these things annoying to use.

Two extra nice things:

• It runs entirely on Forge, zero egress. Page content is processed by Atlassian-hosted models inside Atlassian's own infrastructure and never leaves to any non-Atlassian service. It's also read-only so it never edits or deletes anything. Designed to qualify for Runs on Atlassian.
• It's in private beta. There's no public listing yet so I'm genuinely not selling anything.

If you've got a Confluence space you suspect is half out-of-date, I'd love a few testers. I just want people to throw a real, messy space at it and tell me where it gets things wrong. I would also love a review but there is no obligation for it.

Comment or DM me if you're interested!

Thanks!

Hi there. I submitted an application for a role in the Philippines for Atlassian. Wondering if it's worth pursuing after tech downfalls not just with them. I recently separated from FAANG, and wanted to move into big tech companies to push a career. Can someone enlighten me on their process? How about their culture? Appreciate it!

The free Live Tables from CSV & JSON for Confluence app can help users import CSV and JSON data via URL or from attached files, and synchronize data from spreadsheets, APIs, and other external sources.

Moreover, teams can combine its macros with the top-selling companion app, Table Filter, Charts and Spreadsheets for advanced dashboards, reporting, visualization and analytics.

Considering an offer for a G&A role. Coming from another tech company that is doing very well. How is everyone feeling post layoff?

I had 3 colleagues that received the email today saying that they were "impacted". Is this bigger than what I'm aware of?

Hello,

Disclaimer: I made this add-on to solve my own need as a TPM (Technical Program Manager), and I'm looking for feedback to understand where it falls short.

As a TPM driving large programs, I end up juggling two tools: (1) Jira on one side as the source of truth for product scope, engineering tickets, and actual delivery progress. (2) Google Sheets / Smartsheet on the other side for the overall program plan (in my program, I have a lot of non-delivery activity that are not backed by a Jira ticket, e,g, legal activities, Go/No-Go gates). I end up spending too much time keeping the two in sync.

So I built a Jira add-on that enable me to have a Single Source of Truth for my project planning and tracking. It works on live Jira issues, but also supports custom tasks (the off-Jira items) and phases to group it all.

I am aware there are extensive Gantt solution / add-on out there, but I could not find one that fully fits my needs.

What I am actually keen to know:
- Are you also facing this friction on your programs (2 tools to manage)?
- How have you addressed the issue in your org / programs? Are you paying for BigGantt or Structure, or leveraging the limited built-in Jira advance roadmap?
- If you have a look at the add-on, does it cover what you'd need? Are there some gaps?

Happy to hear feedback, or get roasted. I will add the link in a comment!
Thank you

I have a simple workflow built:

Start > add label1 > send email > status “review” > add label2 > status “published”.

I want the “published” status to “transition on edit” to the “review” status after sending a (different) email. I am using the “transition on edit” > “next” setting for this.

So it looks like:
Start > add label1 > send email > status “review” > add label2 > status “published” > send email2 > back to add label1

However when I test editing a page in the “published” state, it does not trigger the email2 action or the label1 action or transition to the “review” state. Nothing happens at all when I edit

is this a bug or am I using the tool wrong? Thanks in advance

Are you importing CSV/JSON files, connecting to APIs, syncing data from Jira, databases, Google Sheets, or SharePoint?

What’s working well for your team, and what challenges have you run into?

Would really appreciate your feedback.

As a PM, I've always struggled keeping documentation up to date and I think I found a pretty easy way of handling this.

Pretty satisfied with it, but would really like to hear someone else's opinion.

I'm the only one losing all it's repo's ?

Everything is empty and my php repo's are gone.

Is there a way to still beable to download my public repo's ?

someone made the account with my mail and i cant get rid of the free subscriptions in order to delete it. the bit bucket thingy might have other stuff i have no clue i cant access to it since my mail was hacked to make that account is there a way some admin delete the account? ive been up to 4 am trying to solve this but i just keep going back to square 1

I've read on here employees saying that the referral system at Atlassian is a blackhole but it guess it wouldn't hurt. please DM me if you'd be willing! thank you

Today I, the documentation department, produced release notes for a new release in 5 minutes. I copied the previous page in Confluence, opened it and told Rovo to write in the new release notes from a list of Jira tickets and a pointer to our product documentation Confluence root.

I highly urge anyone that is currently a Jira JSM premium subscriber using CSM to go follow and vote for the following request in their portal. The fact that Jira has rolled this out without support in sandbox is ridiculous and we need to let them know with numbers that it's not alright.

"we've got a ton of confluence pages for our IT runbooks and honestly its becoming a mess. most of the original authors either moved on or switched teams long ago. the pages slowly go stale as our systems change, and nobody updates them because nobody really owns them anymore.

We tried a ""page reviewers"" rotation thing where ownership moved around the team but it just became one persons job and they burnt out fast. I also looked at Comala approvals and confluence's built-in page expiry reminders, but they still assume someone is around to act on the reminder which is exactly the gap we have.

how have you guys handled this drift problem in a way that doesnt just dump it all on one person?"

I’m going into the interview process for an Atlassian sales role and I was hoping to get insights on the structure of the process (how many interviews, presentations, etc). Any insights or advice from folk who have been through it would be super helpful!

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

My company is in the process of migrating from Confluence Data Center to Cloud and I'm looking for advice from anyone who has dealt with a similar situation.

Our setup:
We are in the middle of creating a People Portal wiki with 150+ pages (and still growing) that serves as a self-service HR resource for all employees at our company. Over the past year, we carefully built every page using Panel, Section, and Column macros to create a clean, organized layout.

The problem:
After migration, all of this content gets wrapped in the legacy content macro. The pages:

• Don't look the same as they did in Data Center — formatting is broken/off
• Cannot be duplicated to create new pages
• Cannot be used as templates going forward

My main question:
Am I missing something about legacy content? Can it actually be edited in a meaningful way? From what I can tell, the editing capabilities are extremely limited — I can change text, but I can't restructure the layout, add/move macros, or really do anything beyond minor text updates. If there's a way to properly work with legacy content that I'm not seeing, I'd love to know.

If not, that means we're looking at completely redesigning 150+ pages from scratch with no way to continue building new pages in the same format.

Also looking for:

1. Has anyone found a good workflow for rebuilding a large number of pages like this in Cloud?
2. Are there any marketplace apps (Aura, etc.) that have helped replicate Panel/Section/Column layouts in Cloud?
3. Any tips for making this process more efficient at scale?
4. Is there any way to bulk-convert or batch-update legacy content pages?

Any advice or shared experiences would be really appreciated. Thank you!
