Confluence Page Properties Report Multiple Rows 📌

Create a single "template" page that contains the Page Properties macro. Inside this macro, define your columns using tables or labeled lists.

Option B – Using Definition Lists: Inside the macro, use ;Property Name and :Property Value syntax.

Note: The Page Properties Report will treat each property name as a separate column.

If you use multiple pages (Method 1), ensure each page title or a dedicated column (e.g., ID) is unique. confluence page properties report multiple rows

Here’s a clever trick: You can place multiple Page Properties macros on a single Confluence page, each representing a “virtual row.”

  • Each child page contains a Page Properties macro with columns: Risk, Impact, Mitigation.
  • Report page uses Page Properties Report filtered by label project-phoenix-risk.

    • Outcome: 3 rows in the report.

    Why this works: In your Page Properties Report, you can now define columns for "Skill 1," "Skill 2," and "Skill 3." This ensures all data is captured and displayed on the single report row corresponding to John Doe’s page.

    Cons:

    Cons: Requires Confluence Premium; not yet available in Standard or Free plans (as of 2025).
