January 2025

🔍 Summary

January focused on developer tooling and end-user support. Velocity templating gained improved error handling, and migration workflows were enhanced with support for custom macro keys. Usability improvements targeted both technical and non-technical audiences through better API access and interface polish.

✨ New Features & Enhancements

• Support for Custom Macro Keys
  Introduced the ability to define custom macro keys, which helps teams migrating from Confluence Server to Cloud retain consistent macro identifiers across environments.

• Advanced Page Body Manipulation via Velocity
  Enabled the use of Atlassian Document Format (ADF) within Velocity templates using #set, allowing users to programmatically retrieve and work with page content structures:

#set ( $url = "/wiki/api/v2/pages/{id}?body-format=atlas_doc_format" ) 
#set ( $content = $ConfluenceManager.get($url).body.atlas_doc_format.value ) 

Example of usage: Table of Contents for Children

• “Get Help” Button Added
  A new persistent “Schedule Appointment” button is now available in-app, providing users with easier access to support and onboarding through a linked calendar booking system.

  

🛠 Bug Fixes & Improvements

• User Macro Error Handling
  Implemented structured error handling in Velocity templates, aligning with the behavior established for Handlebars. Errors in logic now produce helpful feedback instead of silent failures.

  

• Fix: Double-Scrollbar Issue in Windows 11 (Chrome)
  Resolved a visual glitch where an unnecessary secondary scrollbar appeared under certain OS and browser combinations, improving UI cleanliness.
