• 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.

      It would be very nice if there were a macro to allow embedding a Jira 'issue collector' form in a Confluence page.

      I am referring to embedding the actual form, not a trigger / button to open the form in a modal / popup.

            [CONFSERVER-30502] Embed Jira Issue Collector *Form in Confluence Page

            Thanks for the feedback, I think this is really incorporated by CONF-26038

            I've marked this.

            Hello John,

            Thanks for asking!

            The immediate use case we would implement would be to add a form in a product's 'home page' where our non-dev team can report an issue. Most of the submitted issues we'd have in this case would be 'bugs'.
            A product's 'home page' would also have general product information, links to documents for devs, demo information, widgets with current sprint information, open issues, etc etc.

            There are numerous reasons we think it may be easier for many of our employees to submit a bug through a form on a confluence page versus Jira's 'create an issue' link, but some of the top reasons are accessibility (not the WAI kind, just in general) and having all product information in a single place including the ability to raise a bug.
            Additionally, the 'issue collector' forms are perfect for these types of issues, allowing less technically savvy employees to simply report an issue without having to deal with a huge form.

            In our limited time with Jira + Confluence we're finding that Jira is perfectly suited to our developers (well, most of them anyway), but for our designers, frontenders, project managers, and others, Confluence is a much nicer space.

            If we can accommodate our team by allowing them to work in the space they are most comfortable, we feel our adoption success will be higher.

            Hope that helps! Let me know if you wish to chat more about our desired usage case.

            Cheers,

            tj

            Hi tj5, it would be great to hear a bit more about how you want to use this - ie: what sort of issues you are trying to capture, what else you'd have on the page etc?

            I should add that we are using OnDemand at the moment, and would find this functionality a great added feature.
