You can embed a Structure gadget into a Confluence page to view or edit the structure in Confluence.
Before you can use a Structure gadget on a Confluence page, your Confluence administrator must add Structure gadget to the Confluence configuration. If you try to insert a macro and don't see Structure in the available list, most likely the gadget is not configured.
When editing a Confluence page, click Insert/Edit Macro, and select Structure. The macro configuration dialog appears.
Select your gadget configuration:
Once you've configured the gadget, specify the appearance of the gadget on the left side of the screen:
Click Insert and you're done!
If you see the Login & approve button, you will need to log in to Jira before you can add the gadget.
A Structure plugin not available message indicates that you do not have any visible structure. This is most likely because you are not logged in.
When viewing a structure in a gadget, some of Structure's features will be limited or unavailable:
However, many features are still available, including
Once you have created your gadget, you can customize by adding, removing or rearranging columns – see Customizing Columns.
Once you've made changes to the gadget's view, a new indicator will appear at the bottom of the gadget, along with option revert back to the view's original setting.
In order to save the view, you need to enter Edit mode for the Confluence page and then edit the Structure macro. From there, you have a couple of options for saving your changes.
Click the Save link to apply all the changes you have made to the existing view. The view will be updated everywhere it is in use, in the gadget, on Structure Board, etc. It will also impact all other users with access to that view.
There is no Save As option on the Confluence gadget; however, it can be accomplished using the following method:
If the user viewing the gadget does not have Use permission on the configured view, the gadget will show a default view with only Issue Key and Summary as columns.
Working from the Structure Board provides the most unrestricted Structure experience. To get to the Structure Board from a gadget, click the Open link.
The structure will open on Structure Board with the same filters and transformations that were applied in the original gadget. For examples, if the gadget only shows items from a specific project, sorted by Assignee, that's exactly what you'll see on the Structure Board. To review or remove these transformations, click the Transformations button in the panel toolbar.
