Delimiter that separates columns

, (Comma)

Enter a delimiter to be used to separate column values when the table is downloaded or exported. The characters that can be used as delimiters are:

• , or "," (comma) - Default column separator.

• whitespace - Blanks, tabs, and other white space are used to separate columns.

• tab - A single tab character is used to separate columns.

• blanks - Blank or blanks only.

• pipe - A single pipe (|) character is used to separate columns.

• other single character delimiter - can be within double quotes with some restrictions. Examples: ";", "=".

Show wiki

false

Enable this option to show a non-formatted version of the wiki table following the formatted table. This is used to help resolve formatting issues. It can also be used to convert CSV to Confluence markup by cut and paste.

showWiki

Escape special characters in wiki markup

false

Enable this option to allow few special characters to be escaped so that the formatting is unaffected. When wiki output is requested (Output format is set to wiki), some special characters (like '|', '[', ']', '{', '}') in data can cause undesirable formatting of the table. By default, data that has wiki markup is  rendered correctly.

macro body

Specifies the list of options where CSV data is located. The included data follows the body data based on the location selected. The options are:

• blank - Data is read from the contents in the macro body.

• ^attachment - Data is read from an attachment that is available on the current page.

• page^attachment - Data is read from an attachment available on the specified page in the current space.

• space:page^attachment - Data is read from an attachment available on the specified page in a different space.

Enter the URL containing the required CSV files that are to be rendered. If specified, the included data follows the body and script data.

URL connection timeout (milliseconds)

Enter time in milliseconds such that URL connections do not timeout before getting data. Use this to increase time needed for slow connections. Note that if a zero is given the connection may wait infinitely.

Quote character

Specify the character used to represent quoted data. Quoted data may contain delimiters or new lines. Quote character data must be doubled inside a quoted string.

• double - Double quote character: "

• single - Single quote character: '

Render wiki markup macros in body

false

Enable this option to render wiki markup macros found in the body prior to processing as CSV. This is useful to run macros from apps such as Scripting for Confluence, Run CLI Actions in Confluence, SQL for Confluence, or similar, that can produce CSV output.
