CQL filter - filter pages by current user
Overview
This is an example of using a CQL filter of the document states report macro to create a dynamic report. CQL filter is used to create
a report displaying workflow information for content created by the current user
There are examples of additional CQL filter values that can be used to exclude the report being displayed to specific users.
The CQL Filter parameter now accepts Confluence CQL format functions, keywords, and can include OR and comparison operators (from v.6.16.7+). Simply add the CQL format filter to the CQL filter dialogue box in the document-states-report macro editor.

creator in (matilde, wolfgang, sami) or contributor in (matilde, wolfgang, sami)
