Embed Jira project metadata in Confluence page

December 5, 2023 edited

In one of our Confluence (Cloud) spaces, we have an overview page of certain Jira projects. On this page, we want to display some of the metadata that is stored in the Jira (Cloud) project already – at Project Settings > Details, e.g. Project Lead. Afterwards, this should be updated automatically when changed, so we have a single point of truth (and failure).
Is there any macro available to transclude Jira project properties in Confluence pages?

This is not about information from random Jira issues, but projects! Therefore, this cannot be solved with JQL filters and the Jira Issues Macro.

I believe this older question was looking for something very similar, but more related to project templates rather than overviews.

Bonus addendum: I’ve recently read that Jira extensions could store arbitrary custom attributes in/about Jira projects. It would be great if these could be retrieved from within a Confluence page as well.

Hi @Christoph Päper 

Have you tried the /Projects macro? It lists multiple projects from Jira,you can edit the macro to display all or selected projects

It would look something like this:

Thank you, I didn’t see that I can limit this to a single project. It is showing the Project Lead and the Description together with Title and Key in a card – which is almost what I want, but apparently as close as it gets.

@Christoph Päper In the settings (in the preview panel), it's possible to click on the single project to display.

PS: If you find it helpful, please accept the answer so other community members may find this answer, too, thank you! :D

I meant I didn’t see that configuration before you pointed me to it.

I’ll keep the question unanswered for a bit longer, just in case someone can come up with an even better solution.
