Smart Values in Lookup Pages not working

Markus Kleinschmidt

Hi,

I do not get any smart values in the following automation. I only receive a blank email.

However, it recognizes the affected pages in the audit log.

Does anyone have an explanation or solution for this?

Hi everyone, this is Trevor from the Confluence automation team. I believe this syntax should work (just tested it):

{{#lookupPages}}

{{title}}
{{url}}

{{/}}

I found this syntax for lists documented here: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-lists/#list.join-separator-

Thanks Trev! Works like a charm!

Try changing from pages to page.

{{page.title}}

Hi Shawn,

 

I'm experiencing the same issue. I can send an email with the smart value {{lookupPages}} in the Content field, but it looks like this:

I tried changing the syntax (see below), but the email is blank.

{{#lookupPages}}

{{page.url}}

{{/}}

I haven't used lookupPages yet. Looks like it was added last December, but the documentation hasn't caught up with it yet....

https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/smart-values-in-confluence-automation/

Your {{/}} is too far away from the #  try {{#lookupPages}}{{/}} to get a count of the pages.

I would assume {{page.url}} is empty because you are doing a CQL search that returns multiple pages.

Thanks for your help Shawn. Unfortunately, {{#lookupPages}}{{/}} also returns a blank. I checked the audit log and it says it found 150 pages. Doesn't seem like the # works with lookupPages?

I haven't tried it myself.  Worth putting in a bug report.
