Find Confluence pages that use GitHub files

To find Confluence pages that use GitHub files, open the Capable app from Confluence's apps menu and choose Github, then All files. Every page with a Github file macro is listed with its space and repository. Use the file-type entries on the left, or the Capable Search filters, to narrow it to one repository, organisation or type.


#Before you start

  • You can only see pages you have permission to view.

  • A page appears once Confluence has indexed it, which can take a few minutes after it is published.


#Steps

  1. Open the Capable app from the Confluence apps menu.

  2. Choose Github in the list of capabilities.

  3. Select All files to list every page with GitHub files.

  4. To narrow by type, choose an entry under Browse, such as Markdown, Diagram or Code.

  5. Select a row to see the page's files in the panel on the right, and open the page from there.


#What happens next

The list reads Confluence's own index of your pages. It never contacts GitHub, so it is quick and works without a GitHub connection. On a single page, the page byline shows the same thing: it counts the files, such as 2 files, and opens a list of them.


#If it does not work



Every GitHub file, one list.
