Web Panel

Adds a panel (or section) to a page in the Atlassian application. Panels let you present related information and controls in the application interface as a group. For example, the existing "People" panel in Jira issue view shows the assignee, reporter, and similar information for the issue.

key

Type
string
Required
Yes
Pattern
^[a-zA-Z0-9-]+$
Description

A key to identify this module.

This key must be unique relative to the add on, with the exception of Confluence macros: Their keys need to be globally unique.

Keys must only contain alphanumeric characters and dashes.

The key is used to generate the url to your add-on's module. The url is generated as a combination of your add-on key and module key. For example, an add-on which looks like:

1
2
3
4
5
6

8
{
    "key": "my-addon",
    "modules": {
        "configurePage": {
            "key": "configure-me",
        }
    }
}

Will have a configuration page module with a URL of /plugins/servlet/ac/my-addon/configure-me.

Determines the order in which web panels appear. Web panels are displayed top to bottom or left to right in order of ascending weight. The "lightest" weight is displayed first, while the "heaviest" weights sink to the bottom. The weight values for most panels start from 100, and the weights for the links generally start from 10. The weight is incremented by 10 for each in sequence to leave room for custom panels.
