Adding the "page ID" into a PDF export or into the related page

[Ed Schreibman]

Hi - I know a similar question has been posted multiple times, and  I've reviewed the below resources but the do not seem to address my needs.  

In a nutshell, I've an external document which provides a crosswalk from Statements to a confluence "page ID". 

I'd like to be able to provide a PDF export with the "Page ID" either in each page itself or in the PDF export.  This way, someone can simple Control-F and find the "page ID" for a page.

I see the "title"_"page ID" is added to each html file in an export, but sending a single PDF out is preferred.

Is there a way to add the "page ID" into the page footer in the PDF export?

or

Is there a way to add the "page ID" into its respective page? 

For clarity , this "12345678" is the number I'm looking for .../pages/12345678/... to be in the pdf export.

Pages I reviewed:

Do you maybe have a list with possible user macros ?

Best regards and thank you

Hello @Sana_Iqbal ,

The page ID is taken directly from Confluence and cannot be modified unfortunately.

Hello @Matteo Gubellini _SoftComply_ 

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out regarding the use of SoftComply Toolbox. Is it possible to add a custom format to the page ID? For instance, we would like to incorporate a page ID such as 'KSA-101,' where 'KSA' represents our page category.

If this is achievable, could you please inform me of the steps involved? Alternatively, if there is another solution available, I would greatly appreciate your guidance.

[Matteo Gubellini _SoftComply_]

Yes you have to add it to each page.

The sky is the limit (sort of) for user macros. You can create them yourself or ask around.

Thank you, but for this I need to add that macro to every single page , right ?

Is it not possible to create a PDF export template , that adds those values automatically to the pdf ?

[Matteo Gubellini _SoftComply_]

Just create a new User Macro with the following code: 

## @noparams
$content.Id

 

[Matteo Gubellini _SoftComply_]

Ah, ok, this was for cloud. Let me check if we have a custom macro for it.

Is there a possibility to do this native with confluence ? Server doesnt support any new apps

[Matteo Gubellini _SoftComply_]

It's a free app now with some more stuff.

Please note that there is an Atlassian bug where the inline version does not export to PDF.

Hey Matteo 

could you share it with me too please

thank you

Hi Ed,

I put together a simple macro to embed it into the page itself. I can share it with you.
