Release Notes

You can now customise the default appearance of the Responses Table Macro. When you add a responses table to your page you can choose which columns are included in the table and the order in which they appear. This lets you create pages that quickly give users the key information that they need.

If a user wants to change their view they can do so. The default settings will then be applied the next time the page loads

We've updated the Dropdown field. You can now add a color to the different answer options. This can help users chose the option they need. The color also shows in the responses table making it easier for you to quickly see how the responses are grouped.

We have now added a user picker. This lets user select one or more users to add to the form. They can select from all users or user from a specific group.

We've made some updates to Forms for Confluence to make the app easier to use. Updates include

• New editing options for Long Answer questions
• Conditional Fields
• Forms for Confluence Homepage
• Access Forms for Confluence from the byline.

You must manually update to receive this version.

We are excited to announce our transition to Atlassian Forge! With this update, our macros now run fully on Forge, ensuring alignment with Atlassian best practices.

Once the update is installed no further action is required to update existing content.

To ensure we keep giving you the best experience of Forms for Confluence we are continuing to move our app to Forge. In this release we are moving embed visualisations.

New features

We're excited to announce the release of a new type of form - Quiz. This form allows you to create quizzes for your users to complete. You can identify the correct answers and assign points to each question. This makes it a great tool for letting people quickly check their knowledge and get immediate feedback, you can also collect information on how well your users have understood a topic.

In this exciting new update, we've opened up the forms permissions model - allowing for a more open and user-friendly experience - and introduced a new homepage. Our new homepage brings all your forms and administration tasks together in one centralized hub. It ties together nicely with the permissions change to simplify using forms within your organization, unlocking huge collaboration and data collection potential.

New and improved Form Builder

It's easier than ever to get started creating a form. Use the /Forms shortcut to begin building your form right from the page.

The Form Builder opens when a form is added to a page. The new design now allows for forms to be created and edited from a single place.

Once a valid Form ID has been added in the Form Builder, fields (now named questions) are added in the same window.

Edit and reorder the questions you add, if needed, without leaving the builder.

This inclusive design is more intuitive and simpler to use

Administration in Forms has never been easier

The process of creating Form IDs and starting to gather data for your project has been improved. Now, clicking Forms for Confluence from your space at any time opens the Forms Administration page. The Forms Administration page lists all Form IDs that exist in the space, with relevant details and actions. It's also the place to start the improved journey for creating a new Form ID. Simply click Create Form ID from the Forms Administration page to be guided through creating a new ID and using it to create a form on a page.

The Forms Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant (CCMA) is now integrated into Forms for Confluence Cloud. The Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant, or CCMA, is designed to make transferring a Confluence On-Prem instance to Cloud as easy and seamless as possible. CCMA is an Atlassian app that assists users in moving Spaces and Pages.

It is recommended to use CCMA when:

• Migrating users or data from a Confluence Server or Data Center to a Confluence Cloud instance.
• Evaluating your applications before migrating from Confluence Server or Data Center to Confluence Cloud.
• Performing a trial migration from Confluence Server or Data Center to Confluence Cloud.
• The Atlassian Support team suggests using the app.

Visit our CCMA Migration Process page to learn more about performing migrations.
