This isn't quite the functionality that i think people are requesting?

As a Confluence page writer, i want the ability to type (for example) //incoming links to embed a list of incoming links on a page, similar to //page tree and other embeds.

As a Confluence page reader, i want to visit a page and see a list of navigable incoming links written there in the page body, without having to navigate through any menus to find it.

Currently, my solution is to write this on my page:

To see what links here:

1. Click the "More actions" menu (the ...) in the top corner of the page.

1. Hover over "Advanced details"

1. Click "Page information"

1. Find the "Incoming links" section

i would much rather have a quick method to embed that content in the page, so that less effort is required of me (and my readers). Ideally, it wouldn't take a reader three extra clicks to find this information.  And ideally, as a writer, i could create links to a page and they would dynamically show up on this embedded "what links here" section without any extra effort.

(If, as you say, there's already a way to accomplish this, please send me in the right direction!)

Hi Mo,
Thanks for raising this request. We do have this in Confluence out-of-the-box if you go Tools > View Page Info. There is an "incoming links" section.

We don't have any plans for doing this, as there is already a macro that does it. See the similar issue CONF-4870 raised a while back.
