- Templates can be looked up by space key as well, in addition to [template.TEMPLATE_NAME] you can use [template.SPACEKEY::TEMPLATE_NAME]
- Workaround for forms that have validation rules around fields that upload image files - Confluence has a bug that prevents ConfiForms from deleting the image file due to a DB constraint. We attempt to workaround this, but this will not work for scenarios when another version of a image file is uploaded (attachment with the same name) - in this case we skip deleting of this file to successfully complete ConfiForms process (as otherwise Confluence raises a transaction rollback)
Version 2.25.3
- Addressing issue that has been introduced by strict validation of the form configuration (in 2.25.2). Field max length is upped to 60 symbols max. And the rule could be disabled via plugin configuration (but we encourage you to enable this setting if you plan to migrate your ConfiForms data to cloud at some point).

- queryAndSet function now to support expressions on the field it is queried on - Virtual functions. Wrapping the field or expression in parenthesis will tell ConfiForms to try to calculate the field, and for numeric/currency fields that will attempt to sum up the values that were found
- Attempting to improve ConfiForms attachment handling as per advises given by Atlassian in
Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration.

id.getOptions(choice1).remove([entry.choice1.transform(id).asList]).remove([entry.choice2.transform(id).asList]).asList
similar approach to create a filter dynamically (filters OUT choices from choice1 that are already used in fields choice2 and choice3). In these examples our choice1,choice2,choice3 fields are of the same structure and type
choice1:[entry.id.getOptions(choice1).remove([entry.choice3.transform(id).asList]).remove([entry.choice2.transform(id).asList]).join( OR choice1:)]

Important to know that if the field is set as required in ConfiForms Field Definition then it still remains as required and users must provide a value before they can submit the form. This function only changes the visual appearance of a field label |
|
| function cfAddTabStop(formId, fieldName) | Adds "tab stop", meaning that the field will be excluded from form's set of fields when moving around using the "tab" key |
|
| function cfRemoveTabStop(formId, fieldName) | Removes the "tab stop" marker from a field |
|
| function cfSetValue(formId, fieldName, fieldValue, isAdvanced = false) | Set's value on a field. Set "isAdvanced = true" if you want to set the value on "advanced" fields (such as dropdown fields with lookup, etc) |
|
| function cfSetValueWithEventPropagation(formId, fieldName, fieldValue, eventType, isAdvanced = false) | Same as "cfSetValue" function but triggers an eventType event eventType can be of the following type: This depends on the field you want to trigger this for. Text fields expect 'input', dropdowns and other choice based fields - "change"; Jira, user and page lookup fields expect a "blur" |
|
| function cfResetValue(formId, fieldName, isAdvanced = false) | Resets value on a field (sets it to empty state). |
|
| function cfSetValueByIndex(formId, fieldName, index, isAdvanced = false) | Selects value by index in a dropdown (simple or advanced) field. Options start with 0 index (so, the first option will be with index = 0) |
|
| function cfToggleReadOnly(formId, fieldName, isReadOnly, isAdvanced = false) | Toggles readonly attribute (either adds it or removes it, depending on a isReadOnly parameter value) |
|
| function cfToggleDisabled(formId, fieldName, isDisabled, isAdvanced = false) | Toggles disabled attribute (either adds it or removes it, depending on a isDisabled parameter value) |
|

- Fixed inline edit for WYSIWYG field when it contains certain "HTML" tags. This required us to change the values output from wrapping it in "<span>" into wrapping it in "<div>". So, you have some very custom scripts that were relying on something like span[id^='i_holdingrow_'] you will be required to update those to be something like div[id^='i_holdingrow_'] . This only affects you if you have a lot of custom scripting and customizations around the output generated by ConfiForms

- As per request from Atlassian we now set the default limits on the number of records rendered by ConfiForms views. The default is 500 records, you can change it in macro properties parameters or set to "NO LIMIT".
- Fixed issue with import API for importing users list into user's multi-select field
- Fixed issue with escaping the HTML input while generating the email message with IFTTT, which has caused problems with later parsing and including attachments properly
Support for wildcards (*) in navigation instructions when applying it on a JSON input. A wildcard means the first property in JSON will be taken
Why? Consider this JSON example. Property values can easily change here, but the structure itself is preserved
{
"return": [
{
"somehostname01": {
"file_|-/etc/ssh/sshd_config_|-/etc/ssh/sshd_config_|-managed": {
"comment": "File /etc/ssh/sshd_config is in the correct state",
"pchanges": {
},
"name": "/etc/ssh/sshd_config",
"start_time": "11:01:54.394381",
"result": true,
"duration": 21.685,
"__run_num__": 0,
"__sls__": "abb.sshd",
"changes": {
},
"__id__": "/etc/ssh/sshd_config"
}
}
}
]
}
Here is how you can take the "comment" field value
j.asJSON.return.*.*.comment
which reads to, take the value of a "j" field, transform it to JSON, then get the first property value, then get the first property of a returned value and then lookup for the "comment" property value
- Support for "cf_force" parameter in URLs while creating filtered views. See more: Creating links to filter views from request parameters - url
- Fixed issue with emails generated by IFTTT where file holding fields were used to show the other properties of the file (were not visible on rendered email, which is now fixed)

- Implemented support for READ-ONLY mode in Confluence. ConfiForms becomes READ-ONLY as well.
Version 2.0.10
- Implemented support for | in link field type, to allow setting the labels to links

Additional service to help with autonumbers in forms after migration (if migrated from ConfiForms version 1.x to ConfiForms version 2.0.8 or lower)
[YOUR_CONFLUENCE_SERVER_URL]/ajax/confiforms/rest/fix-storage.action?formName=<FORM_NAME>&pageId=<PAGE_ID>
The service makes sure there are no gaps in the records and all the missing / deleted "records" get also migrated carefully.
Fixed Persian Date field bug not showing correctly the date stored (when in edit mode)
- Fixed issue with incorrect attachment version in presentation when used with "file" field when an attachment has multiple versions
- Fixed issue with showing file field's value when an attachment referenced has been deleted
Added support to ConfiForms IFTTT to send emails with field value changes. The following constructions (inside ConfiForms IFTTT macro body) show how to check for changes in fields "t1" and "t2". And only in case the value has been changed it will be printed (in this example together with it's previous value)
#if(("[entry.t1]" != "[entry._previousState.t1]"))
[entry.t1] [entry._previousState.t1]
#end
#if(("[entry.t2]" != "[entry._previousState.t2]"))
[entry.t2] [entry._previousState.t2]
#end

- Re-packaged for data center compatibility (metadata). Version is waiting an approval from Atlassian (https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/DCHELP-387). ConfiForms is already fully compatible with Confluence Data Center, but is awaiting official approval from Atlassian.
Version 2.0.4
Recovery API now physically deletes existing records and replaces the dataset contents with what's given (this also resets autonumber sequences in a form). You can also clean up the form completely by uploading empty dataset in a format
- Fixed issue with show/hide container on forms in dialog mode (and when ID is used as CSS selector)
- Field Definition Rules macro, when used with "Lookup and set value" action tries to "aggregate" the values it receives, and if all are numbers then sums it up. Use of formulas (expressions) in values to set parameters is supported
Enhanced service to check forms storage integrity (reporting non-compliant fieldnames)

- Fixed issue with Currency field type not validating it's type by default and accepting non numeric values
- Fields of a text type and similar are now rendered as lookups when used in ConfiForms Filter macro
- Smart fields now support referencing field values (in addition to referencing records)
Introducing "_func" bridge function to enable access to virtual functions through the entry (without using any field). This is sometimes necessary when you want to create complex dynamic filters such as:
field1:[entry._func.asEntryRef(entry.field2.transform(id).join( OR field1:))]
This filter, for example, tells to find records where "field1" values match values from "field2". And both fields are multi-value fields
- timezoneAwareDate and timezoneAwareDateTime virtual functions to format date/datetime as timezone aware dates
- Cleaner output of emails when rendered and sent though IFTTT macros
- Attachments picker field enhancement to support showing of all attachments versions
- Fixed issue with creating pages using ConfiForms when a 3rd party app called "InPlace editor" is installed
Added support for "Apply filter" field definition rule to work on attachments picker
Assuming the field name for "Attachment picker" is "mypicker" and is set to show attachments from children pages, but you want to show only current page attachments (when you put FormView on a child page)
mypicker.asAttachment.content.id:[entry._page.id]
- Fixed regression issue with excessively strict field name validation
Version 2.0.3
- Quick fix to address too strong check for field names in ConfiForms field names. Non-latin characters in ConfiForms field names are still supported but strongly NOT RECOMMENDED
Version 2.0.2
- Optimisations in data serialization and deserialization, resulted in reducing the data storage format size up to 30% (depends on the data you store)
- Data loading speed improved up to 15% compared to previous version (depends on the dataset / form configuration)
- Field definition rules are processed 30% faster, especially on the configurations with many rules (30+)
- Fixed issue with the uploading of multiple attachments of the same file
- Entry metadata is back as a tooltip in CardView/TableView row
- Fixed issue with IFTTT to send emails containing files having a comma in their names
- Fixed issue with service URL mapping in web services backed fields when current context variable values, such as [entry._user] and [entry._now] were not correctly applied on the parameter
- New field definition rules to hide (or show) any arbitrary element on the page by CSS selector based on the condition ("Show/Hide container" action type)
- Fixed helper tools with providing mapping of database and web-service backed fields
- Fixed issue with form printing when comments added with a Comment field with "inline comments" enabled were not printed
- Fixed issue with auto-link generation when a reference to uploaded file is used in the pattern
- Changed JSON export format for multi-value fields to contain "JSON" value string for the values, instead of "XML"
- Improved and secured content search indexing for forms - now you need to enable form export to enable the contents of a form to be searchable. Also, setting the form to "show only own records" to non-admin users disables indexing the contents of a form
- Fixed permissions issue with Recovery API (accessible now by space admin users)
Version 2.0.1
- ConfiForms now has a new storage layer, with much faster edit and delete operations. And with faster and less memory consuming search / filtering operations.
There are no limits on the dataset size per form. And the size of the record is limited by the number of characters your database can hold in a CLOB type field (ConfiForms limits are 2,147,483,647 bytes) Data migration is done for your automatically when you access the form for the first time. This could take some time for the first load, depending your your dataset size
There are methods to help you to understand how you data looks like and force the migration via migration APIs if you want to do so (accessible only to Confluence system administrators)

We advise you to take extra care with upgrading to version 2.x+ from 1.x branch and test your form configurations in your test environments first, before upgrading your live environments.
Your tables, rendered with CardView and TableView macros, will look different and use the cleaner styles as provided by AUI - https://docs.atlassian.com/aui/7.8.0/docs/tables.html
Your forms look cleaner as well, and also follow the guidelines and styles from AUI
- ConfiForms is DC ready (approval is in progress)
- Optimizations in rendering: reducing HTML markup size → faster rendering
- All the features and changes included in 1.54.x releases, up to the latest 1.54.6, https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211860/confiforms-data-forms-workflows/version-history#b105004060
- Data is stored in the database table "AO_CEFA84_CONFI_FORMS_ENTITY", using record per row method.
- Rows are not physically deleted from the database when you delete a ConfiForms entry, but marked as deleted. Record contents is removed, but the ID and removal date for the entry are stayed. This allows us to "fix" the logic with auto-number re-use when last ConfiForms entry has been deleted (in ConfiForms version 1.x the last number will be reused, which is not the case anymore with ConfiForms version 2.x)
- Backup and restore DOES NOT back up the values from ConfiForms storage. Use RAW export and recovery APIs to get the data imported
