Absolute date/time not available in JIRA issue macro

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      Problem Definition

      Enabling absolute date/time in JIRA does not display absolute date/time for issues in a JIRA issue macro. The JIRA issue macro seems to use the syntax of the Date Format field, rather than the Date Time Format field, in Formatting and International Settings.

      This would be particularly useful when tracking sprints in Confluence. Attached are two screenshots showing the difference between the date/time display in JIRA and Confluence (in the JIRA issue macro).

      Also applies to:

      Filter Results gadget in JIRA

      Suggested Solution

      Add the ability to enable absolute date/time in Confluence.

      Workaround

      Set the Date Format in Confluence Administration > General Configuration > Formatting and International Settings to include time (matching the Date Time Format):
      MMM dd, yyyy HH:mm

            As a workaround for this, you can set the Date Format to include time like with the Datetime Format, for example "MMM dd, yyyy HH:mm".
