Use this interactive demo to learn how to embed Jira filters and issues directly in a Confluence page.

Quick summary

Adding a Jira filter in Confluence lets teams display live Jira issues inside any page using the Jira Legacy macro and JQL queries. This integration keeps project stakeholders aligned without leaving Confluence, surfacing real-time issue data in a customizable, filterable layout.


Steps

  1. While editing a Confluence page, type /jira to open the macro menu.
  2. Select "Jira Legacy" from the macro options to insert issues from Jira Cloud or Server via JQL.
  3. Search for Jira issues using a key, filter, or JQL query, then select the issues you want to display and choose how they should appear on the page.
  4. Use "Display Options" to customize the layout and limit the number of issues shown, then click "Insert" to add them to the page.
  5. Click "Create Jira Issue" to quickly add a new issue directly from the Confluence page.
  6. Select the Jira server, project, and issue type containing your issues.
  7. Click "Insert" to connect to your System Jira instance for seamless integration.

📌 Why this matters

Embedding Jira filters in Confluence bridges the gap between project documentation and issue tracking, giving teams a single source of truth without switching tools. The Jira Legacy macro supports JQL-based filtering, customizable display layouts, and direct issue creation, making it a powerful way to surface real-time project status inside any Confluence page. Teams that connect Jira and Confluence reduce context-switching, improve sprint visibility, and keep stakeholders informed through living, auto-updating documentation. This integration is essential for Agile teams that rely on both platforms to plan, track, and communicate project work.
