The Macro Browser is a graphical menu that allows you to view the list of available Confluence macros and add them to the current page or blog post.

To insert the SharePoint List macro into a page,

Edit your Confluence page and choose 'Insert' > 'SharePoint List'.
Set the macro parameters to your requirements.
Click 'Insert' to add the macro to the page.

You can also insert macros via autocomplete. For more information, see Using Autocomplete.

These instructions are for Confluence 5.x. In earlier versions of Confluence you can find the SharePoint List macro in the Macro Browser.

Parameters

Unable to render {include} The included page could not be found.

Parameter	Default	Description
Site	No default	The Site parameter is the name of the SharePoint site as specified in the SharePoint Administration settings. See the Confluence SharePoint plugin configuration guide. Note that this value is case-sensitive – use the same capital and lower-case letters as in the plugin configuration screen. In the Confluence 'Macro Browser' you will see a dropdown showing all the SharePoint sites configured in your Confluence wiki for you to choose from.
List	No default	Use this parameter to specify the name of the list that you want to display in Confluence. Displaying a list in a sub-site: If the list you want to display is stored in a "sub-site" of the configured site alias, then you must type the name of the subsite in the list parameter, followed by the list name. For example, to display a list called "Documents" that is stored in a sub-site called "Marketing", then the list parameter would be entered as: Marketing/Documents
View	No default	Use this parameter to reference a view in SharePoint for controlling the appearance of the list in Confluence. By creating or customizing a view in SharePoint, you can control the following aspects of the list's display: The columns that are displayed, and the order in which they appear The maximum number of rows displayed The sorted order, in which the rows appear The rows that are displayed (by specifying a filter to restrict some rows from being displayed) You can leave the View parameter blank, in which case the macro will use the default view configured for the desired list.
Folder	No default	Use this parameter to view the contents of a folder or sub-folder within the list. To display the contents of a root (top-level) folder, just type the name of the folder. To display the contents of a sub-folder, enter the path to the sub-folder. For example, to show the sub-folder "Team A" in a folder called "Team Documents", the Folder parameter would be entered as: Team Documents/Team A
