Description
Often you need to create a standard set of Confluence pages or JIRA Jira issues or similar. The Run CLI Actions in Confluence allows you to semi-automate this process using the power of ACLI. The process or activity is easily documented and readily changeable. Confluence page history provides tracking. The RUN should be used to provide a run button and to parameterize some of the data - the technique is demonstrated in Repetitive task using the RUN macro. An alternative is to use the --simulate parameter on the run action and manually remove it when ready to run the actions using preview mode.
