AND-ing of labels ins RSS feeds

    • 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.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      As far as I understand the documentation and tests are showing the RSS Feed Builder combines labels with the logical OR operator.

      I would like to AND the labels when building an RSS feed - either manually or by the RSS feed builder - instead of the present default OR-ing.

      Regular Confluence label work (e.g. contentbylabel macro) allows explicit logical operators by adding and/or signs to force or exclude the presence of a label. When working with rss feeds this doesn't seem to work.
      AND-ing means: "...matches all of the labels...". If I adapted the logic to the contentbylabel macro I would write 'labels=+hummingbird,+blackbird' (show me all content about hummingbirds and blackbirds - but not content labelled with only one of 'blackbird' or 'hummingbird').

      An analogy to contentbylabel might look something like:
      http://my.wiki.org/createrssfeed.action?types=blogpost&...&labelString=%2Bhummingbird,%2Bblackbird&rssType=atom&maxResults...os_authType=basic (URL-encoded + and even - signs)

      And what would be even more comfortable is the explicit exclusion of labels: Show me all content that provides (at least) the labels "bear, dog" but not "cat". If I adapted the logic to the contentbylabel macro I would write 'labels=+bird,-hummingbird' (show me all content about birds, but exclude content about hummingbirds.").

      As I noted I am looking for the label functionality (use of logical operators) in rss feeds (Feed Builder, generated URLs) I know from the contentbylabel macro e.g..

          Form Name

            Hi Stephan,

            Thanks for taking the time to raise such a detailed request.

            Unfortunately we don't have any plans to add this functionality in the near term so I'm going to close this ticket off.

            Thanks,
            John
