ConfiForms IFTTT macro is a powerful tool which helps you to built integrations with other systems: to send emails, to create issues in Jira, to build workflows in Confluence, to organise templates and rules. And also to create various types of cool things around ConfiForms and Confluence.

Important note: IFTTT operations in ConfiForms are NOT TRANSACTIONAL, this means that the ConfiForms record save operation and the following after that IFTTT actions will be executed in own transactions. Failure of IFTTT action will NOT result in save operation rollback and the record still will be created

All the IFTTT integration operations are not transactional and executed in own scope, independently from ConfiForms internal operations


ConfiForms IFTTT macro is a part of ConfiForms Form definition and must be placed inside the ConfiForms Form macro body. You can place as many ConfiForms IFTTT macros as you want. Each macro has an event it is binded to. There are 4 types of events in ConfiForms:


You can define the "condition", to limit the scope when action is fired. Meaning that you can define to execute an action only when certain condition is met.

Conditions macro parameter expects a filter, more about filters could be found here: ConfiForms Filters


ConfiForms IFTTTs generate results (type depends on the IFTTT type)

These results could be used to created "chained" flows, when one IFTTT uses the results of the previous IFTTT(s). The easiest way is to set the name to the IFTTT result (see RESULTNAME), so you can reference it anytime via [iftttResult_RESULTNAME

Important to note that result chaining is PER EVENT. Which means you can reference results of previous IFTTTs only if the event is matching (onCreated, onModified, onDeleted and onError). Each event has own chain of results. 


At the moment ConfiForms IFTTT macro has 38 action types to choose from.


Each action has different set of parameters to set. In most cases you can use references to your entry fields via [entry.FIELD_NAME] in macro parameters, so these will be replaced with actual values.


Important

The execution order for actions is the same as you put them inside the ConfiForms Form macro body (obviously, filtered by event type). IFTTT execution also supports referencing of results for previous execution: Advanced integrations with IFTTT macros with ConfiForms


Below, you can find a list of integrations scenarios the macro can support and it's configuration details

Actions list

There are 38 different actions supported by IFTTT out-of-the-box (some actions are very generic, so the integration scenarios number is a lot bigger)



Each IFTTT action has own parameters, but the following parameters are supported by all actions


When specified (in the docs below, for an action) - a macro body is used as a template, otherwise leave it empty



Parameter nameDescription
Event

Type of event in ConfiForms this IFTTT action should be fired on

  • On Created
  • On Modified
  • On Deleted


Action to performOne of the actions to perform. See the list above
Do not report errorA checkbox field to disable error reporting and continue with the workflow even if current macro has resulted in an error
Custom name for the action result

This is used in advanced techniques, when you want to use the result of the IFTTT in next IFTTT or want to save the result of some IFTTT or some part of the result back into a ConfiForms record. See below the result types and the contents stored in the result for each IFTTT action.


A result (depending on the action type) is stored in the context in the variable prefixed by "iftttResult_"

And is accessible using the Velocity notation via

${iftttResult_RESULTNAME}
or (see Velocity templates syntax for more on "!" operator)
$!{iftttResult_RESULTNAME}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_RESULTNAME]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

Where "RESULTNAME" is the value given in this macro parameter.

Some results hold rich objects. See "Result type" section for exact IFTTT action below


Add Attachment Label


Add a label or labels to attachment
Result type:
NO RESULT



Add Page Label

Adds label to a page, you can apply a label (or labels) to page sub-pages as well

Result type:
NO RESULT

Add Page Watcher

Adds a user or group of users as a page watcher
Result type:

Page object (page where the watcher's were added)

Depending on the IFTTT result name you can access all of the properties available from Page object.

For example (when result name is MYRESULT)

${iftttResult_MYRESULT.id}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.spaceKey}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_RESULTNAME.id]
[iftttResult_RESULTNAME.spaceKey]
[iftttResult_RESULTNAME.displayTitle]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

Any other property, which Page object provide (any "get" method)

Applink Service


Sends a request to configured Application link service

A user specifies which HTTP method to use, which URL service to execute (url must be given as "relative" url, this means it is "concatenated" with the base url in your applink service)

More about Application links in Confluence could be found here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/APPLINKS/Application+Links+Documentation

Result type:

Response returned from a request to a service is returned and stored as result

If response is a JSON then you can apply Virtual functions to work on a JSON object

Please note that virtual functions could be applied only on ConfiForms fields, not the IFTTT result directly. This means you will need to save the response to some ConfiForms field temporarily in order to apply the functions and convert the response to JSON.

Audit

Nothing to configure: see Using new Audit IFTTT action

Automatic audit for your form. Audit form with <form_name>_log is created for you automatically, with a field referencing your <form_name>
Result type:
NO RESULT

Copy Attachment

Copies attachment from one page to another. In contrast to "Move Attachment" action, the copy of an attachment created. Original attachment stays untouched
Result type:
NO RESULT

Copy ConfiForms Data



Copies data from one ConfiForms form to another, can have custom mapping for fields and have a filter applied before copying the data

Also, it can "flatten" the multi-select values to copy the data to a new form in an "expanded" view


Please note that if you leave the filter empty then ALL the records from a source form will be copied to a destination form.

To copy just one, current record, you will need to apply the following filter

id:[entry.id]

It is important to note that this action never fires any other "Create ConfiForms Entry", "Delete ConfiForms Entry" or "Copy ConfiForms Data" for the entry created

Usage is very similar to what is shown here but allows you to copy multiple records at a time if necessary

Result type:

Last created (copied) record as object. This means that you can access any property available in ConfiForms record. Please note that the values accessed using the Velocity notation (${}) return "raw" (internal)

values. More on this Accessing field values and properties

Copy ConfiForms Data to DB



Executes a SQL statement you specify on your database (on the database connection you have configured)

You must specify a valid SQL statement - either INSERT or UPDATE

Similar to "Copy ConfiForms Data" action you can filter records on original form before copying, as well as "flatten" records in order to have multi-value fields as separate rows (if necessary)


ConfiForms uses JDBC driver to connect to your database. See more on Some guidelines on using database fields in ConfiForms and Working with database fields in ConfiForms

Result type:
NO RESULT

Copy Page



Copies page from one location to another

A user performing an operation should have enough permissions (to copy the page from source location to destination location (create page permission))

Please note that the page title and the contents of the copied page will be processed against the current record field's - so if your page title contains the [entry.field_name] notation then these will be evaluated against the values in the current record in the context

You can switch off the processing for the page body, but page title is always processed

Result type:

Copied page as object. Any property a Page object has

For example (when result name is MYRESULT)

${iftttResult_MYRESULT.id}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.spaceKey}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle}
...

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.id]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.spaceKey]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

Any other property, which Page object provides (any "get" method)




Create Attachment



Creates a file, based on the content you specify in macro body and uploads it as attachment.

See more Creating a file with calendar invitation - ics file in Confluence and sending it via email with ConfiForms

You need to specify field name to use to store the reference to a created attachment - ConfiForms field of type "File" is the preferred field type to store this



Macro body:

Result type:
File contents as text into the result

Create BlogPost



 

Creates blog post based on the contents in macro body and the title given.

Blog post will be created in a Confluence space specified.

You can apply labels to a created blog post

Macro body:

Result type:

Created Blog Post - complete object, as https://docs.atlassian.com/confluence/5.8.9/com/atlassian/confluence/pages/BlogPost.html

Example:

${iftttResult_MYRESULT.id}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle}
other properties from BlogPost object

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.id]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.spaceKey]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

(if result was named "MYRESULT")


Create Comment

Creates page comment. Comment contents will be take from IFTTT macro body
Macro body:

Macro body is used as comment template




Result type:
Created comment - complete object properties  https://docs.atlassian.com/atlassian-confluence/6.0.1/com/atlassian/confluence/pages/Comment.html

Create (Update) ConfiForms Entry




Creates (or updates) ConfiForms Entry in the specified form

It is important to note that this action never fires any other "Create ConfiForms Entry", "Delete ConfiForms Entry" or "Copy ConfiForms Data" for the entry created

Additionally, you can stop the propagation of the "create/update" events completely.


To update the current ConfiForms record leave the "Reference to form and it's location" empty and in parameters to set specify:

entryId=[entry.id]

To target the current record


You can also have your values be evaluated as expressions and contain Supported math operators, formulas and functions

In this case they should be wrapped in ()

Example:

myfield=(FORMATDATE(NOW()))

myfield=(ZEROIFEMPTY("[entry.anotherfield]"))
Result type:

Created entry object, same as in Copy ConfiForms Data


${iftttResult_MYRESULT.somefield}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.somefield]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

Where "somefield" is the name of the field in ConfiForms form

More details/examples:

This action helps you to create different types of update rules for your ConfiForms entries. You can create an audit for all changes, you can update entries in other forms or entries in the same form based on chosen criteria

Same action type is used for creating new entries and updating existing and the parameter to indicate that is "entryId"

So, to create record you will specify:

someparam=[entry.somefield]&anotherparam=[entry.another]

But to update existing record you will need to have something like this:

entryId=[entry.id]&someparam=[entry.somefield]&anotherparam=[entry.another]

You can also set constant values, does not have to be a reference to some field value

someparam=MY CONSTANT&anotherparam=[entry.another]

The above example will set "someparam" to constant value of "MY CONSTANT" and "anotherparam" will be set to a value found on the field named "another"


Important bit which is often forgotten is to specify which form and where it is located (form name and pageId), the last parameter in the macro. If this is not specified then nothing is executed, as ConfiForms does not know where this action to be applied


Other tutorials:




Create Insight Object



Creates Insight object based on the JSON mapping given

See Creating Jira issue from Confluence with ConfiForms for a tutorial on Creating JIRA issues, the concept behind creating Insight objects is identical


Macro body:

JSON mapping wrapped in "No Format" or in "Code" macro to have a raw text

JSON mapping should be of structure specified in Insight REST API https://documentation.riada.se/display/ICV50/Version+1.0+documentation

https://confluence.atlassian.com/servicemanagementserver050/insight-rest-api-documentation-1142253260.html

/rest/insight/1.0/object/create service in particular

Result type:

Created Object ID as text

${iftttResult_MYRESULT}
or (see Velocity templates syntax for more on "!" operator)
$!{iftttResult_MYRESULT}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

(if result was named "MYRESULT")

If IFTTT macro is set to ignore errors (execute in silent mode, then there might be NO RESULT in the variable, so accessing it with "!", like $!{iftttResult_MYRESULT} is safer)

More details / examples:

You can create Insight Objects from ConfiForms entries. However, this is a bit technical to setup as the integration is done through the JSON document you will need to prepare. See tutorial below for more details and examples. Important: you must have a correctly configured Application link to JIRA

Also, there are some helpers to help you with preparing correct JSON, see Virtual functions

Tutorials:

  • Creating Jira issue from Confluence with ConfiForms (similar concept to creating Insight Objects, but expects a different mapping and uses a different service underneath)

    Definitely use the NoFormat macro to place the JSON mapping inside the IFTTT macro body




Create Jira Issue



Creates JIRA issue based on the JSON mapping given using https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/9.2.0/#api/2/issue-createIssue

See Creating Jira issue from Confluence with ConfiForms

You can add users as watchers to created JIRA issue. Must be a valid user (list of users) given


When you want to add an attachment to JIRA issue from ConfiForms file field - you will need to place the "ConfiForms Field" macro inside the ConfiForms IFTTT macro body. This way, you will tell ConfiForms, in addition to issue creation, to upload the file to JIRA. You can upload multiple files, just by placing additional ConfiForms Field macros referencing other file fields into the macro body

Macro body:

JSON mapping wrapped in "No Format" or in "Code" macro to have a raw text

JSON mapping should be of structure specified in JIRA REST API - https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-apis/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/jira-rest-api-example-create-issue

Result type:

Created issue KEY as text

${iftttResult_MYRESULT}
or (see Velocity templates syntax for more on "!" operator)
$!{iftttResult_MYRESULT}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

(if result was named "MYRESULT")

If IFTTT macro is set to ignore errors (execute in silent mode, then there might be NO RESULT in the variable, so accessing it with "!", like $!{iftttResult_MYRESULT} is safer)

More details / examples:

You can create JIRA issues from ConfiForms entries. However, this is a bit technical to setup as the integration is done through the JSON document you will need to prepare. See tutorial below for more details and examples. Important: you must have a correctly configured Application link to JIRA

Also, there are some helpers to help you with preparing correct JSON, see Virtual functions

This action type supports uploading files to created JIRA ticket, an example is also available in the same tutorial.

Important to note that currently this action selects a primary app link to JIRA, if you have more than 1 JIRA connected then you will be able to create JIRA issues only in your primary JIRA (the one set as primary in your application links)

Tutorials:




Create Page



Creates Confluence page based on the template given (in macro body)

See Creating links in original ConfiForms entry to just created page

Using ConfiForms app as template engine to create pages in Confluence


In Confluence the page title should be unique within a Confluence space.

ConfiForms will create a new version of the page if the page with given title already exists in the Confluence space specified

Important to note is that if you put ConfiForms Field macros inside the IFTTT macro body and this macros will be WITHOUT a "view" macro around them, then a ListView macro with a filter set to current record is created as a wrapper for ALL the content in the IFTTT macro body.

If you want to avoid "auto-wrapping" then you need to make sure that all ConfiForms Field macros you put are within the "view" macro (TableView, ListView, CardView, etc)

In contrast, when you use [entry.fieldname] notations then there is no need to wrap anything in views macros. But in this case the data is static data copied (not referenced) there from ConfiForms

All references (like [entry.filed_name]) inside the IFTTT macro body to ConfiForms fields are evaluated against the current record.

If you have an IFTTT action to create a page with ConfiForms Form and it should have filters or field rules which in the created page should look like [entry.fieldname] you will need to wrap these into a virtual function

asEntryRef(REF_TO_ENTRY)


Example:

[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.id)]

This will return

[entry.id]

When this is necessary?

The use case is when you use it within an IFTTT or have a ListView which has another ListView inside and you want to prevent ConfiForms from applying the context variables onto the sub-lists


The function can be used with any field type (as long as the field exists) and actually the following constructions are perfectly valid

[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.somefield)] will return [entry.somefield]
[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.mytextfield)] will return [entry.mytextfield]
[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.anotherfield)] will return [entry.anotherfield]
[entry.id.asEntryRef(entry.id)] will return [entry.id]


As you can see we apply the function on the same ID field (exists in every ConfiForms record) and the parameter you give in is the important bit in all this...

So, the parameter (PARAM) you give to asEntryRef is wrapped into the brackets and returned:

[PARAM]


You can also use "_func" pseoudo property of a record as a bridge to "asEntryRef" function when the "id" is not available (assigned)

This is always available

[entry._func.asEntryRef(entry.somefield)] will return [entry.somefield]
[entry._func.asEntryRef(entry.mytextfield)] will return [entry.mytextfield]
[entry._func.asEntryRef(entry.anotherfield)] will return [entry.anotherfield]
[entry._func.asEntryRef(entry.id)] will return [entry.id]



Macro body:

Result type:

Page object (page created)

Depending on the IFTTT result name you can access all of the properties available from Page object.

For example (when result name is MYRESULT)

${iftttResult_MYRESULT.id}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.spaceKey}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle}
...

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.id]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.spaceKey]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.displayTitle]
since ConfiForms version 2.11

Any other property, which Page object provides (any "get" method)

More details / examples:

You can create a page based on the template in this IFTTT macro body. You can have a template embedded or you can reference Confluence template with

[template.TEMPLATE_NAME]

Templates can reference field values using 

  • [entry.FIELD_NAME] to embed the values statically
  • using ConfiForms Field macro to have a dynamic reference to original form, so when the value is changed in the original form then it will get's changed in the page created


You can set your own root page (also dynamically based on the values in your entries, as usual... by referencing via [entry.FIELD_NAME]), you can enable custom permissions on newly created pages 

Additional tutorials:




Delete Attachment



Deletes attachments from Confluence. A user must have enough permissions to delete attachments

Attachment ID could be extracted from a file/attachment field value in ConfiForms as follows - using Virtual functions 

(in case of ONE attachment)

[entry.myattachmentfield.asAttachment.id]

(in case if you field holds links to multiple attachments)

[entry.myattachmentfield.asAttachments.transform(id).asList]


Also, some user handy macro to see attachment IDs Attachments list

Result type:
NO RESULT



Delete ConfiForms Entry



Deletes the ConfiForms entries by a given filter


You can automatically delete entries, and this is done by specifying a filter. When you want to delete just a record created then the filter is by id:

id:[entry.id]

Important difference (between Creating and Deleting actions) here is the name of the field used to reference entry ID. In filters you need to specify it as "id" and in field parameters you will need to use "entryId"

So, deleting entries happens by filter, more about filters ConfiForms Filters

You will need also to specify explicitly which form to use and where it is located (pageId). See last parameter in Macro editor for ConfiForms IFTTT macro for this action type


Tutorials:


Result type:
NO RESULT



Delete Page

since ConfiForms version 2.11

Any other property, which Page object provides (any "get" method)

Generate Next Number


(experimental)


Generates (based on the filtering criteria) and sets next number on the configured field

On highly concurrent systems this may generate duplicates. We are working on improving this. At the moment this is an experimental functionality

See quick tutorial on this here: Using generate next number IFTTT rule and Using generate next number IFTTT rule to have sequence numbers per day

Result type:

NO RESULT




Move Attachment



Moves attachment from one page to another

You should specify the attachment ID to be moved and the page destination it should be moved to. A user must have enough permissions to attach the file to a destination page and enough permissions to read the configured attachment.

Can move multiple attachments in one go, See Virtual functions for "asAttachment" function to see how

To add ConfiForms file field to an email as attachment - place ConfiForms Field macro into the IFTTT macro body


Email server configured in your Confluence server is used for sending the emails

Emails sent by ConfiForms are NOT queued and sent immediately (to avoid "bulk" message flags, and sent "individual and personal" direct messages)

Macro body:

Is the template to be used to construct an email message body

See more on Sending an email with attachments from Confluence with ConfiForms app

Result type:

NO RESULT (for versions of ConfiForms prior to 1.39.2)

The following properties are supported from version 1.39.2

${iftttResult_MYRESULT.body}
${iftttResult_MYRESULT.recipientsCount}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.subject]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.body]
[iftttResult_MYRESULT.recipientsCount]
since ConfiForms version 2.11
More details / examples:

There is a number of tutorials on using this action type:




Send Notification



Sends internal notification to a user (or users) in Confluence

Notification will appear in the top-right corner. The message body is configured using the ConfiForms macro body


This action type send internal Confluence notification to the user specified, the notification will be visible in the "workbox", in the right top corner of Confluence toolbar.

Sending this type of notifications is very similar to Sending email, the difference is only in where the notification ends up. And what you can use for notification message body (defined through the ConfiForms IFTTT macro body) - free to use Confluence formatting macros, as they are correctly shown inside the Confluence notifications workbox.

Confluence Notification could be sent only to a registered user (email notification can be sent to any external email address, unless your email server does not support that)

Macro body:

Result type:
NO RESULT



Set Page Revision



Updates page with a revision information (timestamp and version)

Revision is inserted into the page storage and that increases the page version and generates all related events (page modified event, etc)

This comes handy when you have other plugins that rely on the page versioning and could trigger corresponding actions when it's changes

Macro body:

EMPTY

Result type:
NO RESULT



Update Jira Issue



Updates JIRA issue using given JSON object by calling to https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/9.2.0/#api/2/issue-editIssue

JIRA issue key must be set as macro parameter, could be looked up dynamically from ConfiForms field

It is a wrapper action to ease the setup of updates to JIRA issue from ConfiForms. Same could be achieved with the help of "Applink service" action

IFTTT macro body should hold a JSON structure to update the JIRA issue (use "No Format" macro to construct JSON structure as-is)

Example:

Another example:

See more on JSON structure the "update JIRA issue" API expects

https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-apis/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/updating-an-issue-via-the-jira-rest-apis



Macro body:

Result type:

Issue key as text, accessible directly via result name (for example, if result name is "MYRESULT")

${iftttResult_MYRESULT}
or (see Velocity templates syntax for more on "!" operator)
$!{iftttResult_MYRESULT}

Same can be archived with 
[iftttResult_MYRESULT]
since ConfiForms version 2.11
