Insert the Jira timeline macro

If you're using a next-gen Jira Cloud project, the Jira timeline macro allows you to add your project's timeline to a Confluence Cloud page or live doc.

Add your timeline to a Confluence Cloud page or live doc

You can add your team's timeline to a Confluence Cloud page or live doc using the Jira timeline macro. Timelines you add to a Confluence Cloud page or live doc will update in real-time, and you can interact with it just as you would in Jira.

There are three ways to add your timeline to a Confluence Cloud page or live doc.

Option 1: Paste a URL

  1. Go to your team-managed software project and view the Timeline.

  2. Copy the URL from your browser.

  3. Paste that URL directly into your Confluence page or live doc.

It will automatically be transformed into a Jira timeline macro.

Option 2: Macro shortcut menu

  1. Bring up the macro shortcuts menu with either '/' (in the new Confluence Cloud editor) or '{' (in the classic editor). 

  2. Search for Jira timeline.

Option 3: Macro menu

  1. Select the macro menu (+).

  2. Select Jira timeline.
