Attachment Table Macro

Attachment Table Macro

Overview

The Attachment Table macro produces a table of attachments based on various selection criteria, including powerful space and page selection.

Further customization is possible by specifying filters to select attachments by name, comment content, and labels. You can select and indicate the order in which columns are to be displayed based on their column name or number.  Refer to Columns Available to Display for details.

The resulting table can be customized and supports most common table capabilities.

Depending on the selection criteria used and number of attachments, pages, and spaces that need to be processed, this could be a long running process. Choose your selection criteria carefully and consider using the Cache Macro to limit the number of times the attachment list generation needs to be done and/or the Future Macro to defer processing. The limit parameter described below can also be used to limit processing.

Common Parameters

 

 

Columns Available for Display

The Attachment Table macro allows the user to select the columns to be displayed as well as the order. A default set of columns is displayed unless an explicit list is provided. You can select and indicate the order in which columns are to be displayed based on their column name or number. Use the columns parameter to specify a comma separated list of column names or numbers.

Please note that column names are case insensitive.

In most cases the column heading can be used in place of the column name, but there are a few cases where that is ambiguous. In this case, the first column matching the heading will be used. 

Default columns for single page attachments

file, size, creator, created, comment

Default columns for multiple page attachments

page, file, size, creator, created, comment
