Something others might find handy: a Confluence user macro that displays the latest Atlassian product release versions (with release notes), and release dates.Here it is live:
Latest product versions
It works by querying www.atlassian.com's JSON resources, at URLs such as https://my.atlassian.com/download/feeds/current/jira-software.json. The jQuery code can be found on bitbucket – improvements welcome.
Installation
To add this to your Confluence:
- Log in as an administration
- Search for 'user macros'
Create a new macro calledatlassianversions:
In the body, fill in:## @noparams <h4>Latest product versions</h4> <table id="productTable"></table> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://bitbucket.org/redradish/atlassian-versionscraper/raw/master/createversiontable.js"> // This line intentionally left blank - https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/21353/cant-use-script-tag-in-user-macros </script>
i.e.:
- Save the macro.
Then on a test page, insert the macro:
Done! You might also like to display this on your Confluence dashboard.
