IC - Displaying TTiS custom field in Confluence

Starting with version 2.1.10 for Jira 8 and above, you may display a Total Time in Status custom field in Confluence. 

It can be helpful to display information from Jira on a Confluence page for team meetings, project status updates, release notes and customer communications, sharing updates with people in your organization who don't use Jira regularly. For this goal, you are able to use the native Confluence macro - Jira Issues.

Connect Confluence and Jira

Before you can use this macro, your Confluence and Jira applications must be connected via Application Links. People viewing the page will see the publicly accessible issues from the Jira site. If your Jira site has restricted viewing (that is, people need permission to view issues) then they will need to authenticate before seeing the restricted issues. See Use Jira applications and Confluence together for more information. 

Displaying ticket age on the Confluence page

To add the Jira macro to a page and see your configured Total Time in Status fields:

  1. From the editor toolbar, select Insert  → Jira Issue/ Filter (if it is absent in the dropdown list, go to Other Macros and select Jira from the Development category).




  2.  Enter a filter or search for a Jira Issue.




  3. Select necessary columns in 'Display options' section and click Insert.




  4. You can then publish your page to see the macro in action. 



The time format displays the same way as in the Jira ticket. See how you may configure it hereUse 'Refresh' button to see the most actual information. 

That's it.
