Macro Inventory for Confluence
Documentation · ENR Enterprises AS
Macro Inventory lists every macro used in a Confluence space, how many pages use
each one, and which macros fall outside the standard Confluence set.
Getting started
- Install the app from the Atlassian Marketplace.
- In Confluence, open Apps in the main navigation and choose
Macro Inventory.
- Pick a space from the dropdown and select Scan space.
The scan runs in batches and reports progress as it goes. Larger spaces take longer;
a space of a few thousand pages typically completes in under a minute.
Reading the results
| Column | Meaning |
| Macro | The macro name as Confluence stores it. |
| Source | Built-in means the macro is part of the standard Confluence set. Not recognised means it is not. |
| Pages | How many pages in the space use that macro. A macro used several times on one page counts once. |
| Examples | Up to five pages where the macro appears. |
What “Not recognised” means
Confluence records the name of a macro but not which app supplies it. A macro
marked “Not recognised” is one that isn’t part of the standard
Confluence set, which usually means it comes from an installed app — and pages
using it will stop rendering correctly if that app is removed.
Treat the list as a starting point for checking rather than a definitive verdict. If you
believe a macro is standard Confluence and it is being reported as unrecognised, tell us
and we will correct it.
Permissions and data
- The app requests two read-only permissions: read pages and read spaces.
- Every request is made with your Confluence permissions. You can only scan
spaces you can read, and results never include pages you cannot see.
- The app stores nothing. Results exist only in your browser while the page is open
and are gone when you navigate away.
- No data is sent outside Atlassian. The app declares no external network access and
runs entirely on Atlassian-hosted infrastructure.
- The app never creates, modifies or deletes content.
Limitations
- Scans one space at a time. There is no site-wide scan.
- Results are not saved. Closing or reloading the page clears them.
- Macros inside content types other than pages may not be included.
- The list of standard Confluence macro names is maintained by us and may be
incomplete; see “Not recognised” above.
