Overview
V2.1.0 OR LATER
Pages and blog posts automatically update their data for the Comala Document Approval report tools and report macros. These include
Document Tasks Report Macro V2.2.0+
However, sometimes the data is not updated due to unexpected errors or a lack of edit permissions by the user that triggered the update.
In those cases, the data for the reports can be manually populated by running a space-level job using the Refresh Data screen in the space tools Document Approval dashboard.
This option complements the option to run the space-level properties through the URL.
When would I want to use this?
The data refresh option is used to populate space properties data for the workflow properties for your pages and blog posts in a space if there are unexpected errors in Comala Document Approval reports and report macros.
Running the space population
In space tools Document Approval dashboard
choose Refresh Data dashboard
choose the Refresh Data button option
Before running the space properties population job, all workflows must be enabled or the existing data of pages and blog posts without a current applied approval workflow is deleted.
Impersonation group for Refresh Data
V2.3.1+
To ensure the data refresh process has access to restricted pages, a global administrator can set a Confluence user group to impersonate a Confluence administrator when the data refresh process is executed in a space.
The Impersonation group for the Refresh Data option is available in the app global configuration (from v2.3.1 Data Center). If impersonation is required, it must be set for the instance by the global administrator before the data refresh process is run.
