: Place each row of data into its own individual Page Properties macro on the source page.
Create a new page that will act as your child item (e.g., "Risk: Supply Chain Delay"). Insert the macro. Inside the macro, insert a 2-column table.
If your team works with multi-row tables across multiple pages, the Table Filter, Charts & Spreadsheets for Confluence app (by Stiltsoft) is the recommended solution. It directly addresses the one-row-per-page limitation and adds powerful data transformation capabilities.
Conversely, users often want multiple rows from a single page. They wish to treat a Confluence page not as a document, but as a database table. They want the "Meeting Notes" page to spawn five rows in a report—one for each action item, one for each attendee. confluence page properties report multiple rows
Give each macro a unique "ID" in the macro settings if you want to report on them separately, though usually, the report will simply stack them. Method 2: The Multi-Row Table (The Legacy Way)
If you use a multi-row table, the report will often try to cram all that data into a single cell or fail to parse it correctly. If you need a true "database" feel with many rows, is significantly more reliable. Common Issues and How to Fix Them 1. Rows Aren't Appearing
By default, the report is designed to show one row per page. But, with the right structure—specifically using the or clever nested macros—you can display multiple rows per page, allowing for advanced reporting on tasks, requirements, or data subsets. What are Page Properties and Page Properties Report? : Place each row of data into its
Wrap the Report macro inside a Table Transformer macro.
What happens if you place Page Properties macros on a single Confluence page? This is a frequent workaround attempted by users who want multiple rows without creating dozens of separate pages. How Confluence Processes Multiple Macros:
To understand the solution, we must understand the mechanism. The Page Properties macro looks for metadata defined on a page. When the Page Properties Report macro scans that page, it maps the (first column of your properties table) to the Value (second column). Inside the macro, insert a 2-column table
This technique quickly becomes unwieldy for more than a handful of rows. For larger datasets, consider using the chain described in the next section.
If you have multiple Page Properties macros on one page or a multi-row table inside a single macro, the standard report macro often fails to treat them as separate rows, instead merging them into one entry or only displaying the first one. Method 1: The Multiple Macro "ID" Workaround
However, when your data demands more—when you need to report on tables with multiple rows—the Table Excerpt and Table Transformer macros provide a robust, native solution that scales to meet your needs. Whether you're building a company-wide expense report or a dynamic risk register, these tools allow you to keep your data structured and your reporting flexible.
