The popular labels macro renders a list/heatmap of the most popular labels used throughout your Confluence site or within a space. For example:

Usage with the Macro Browser

To insert the popular labels macro into a page using the Macro Browser,

  1. Open your desired Confluence page or blog post, then click the 'Edit' button. The page or blog post opens in edit mode.

  5. Set the macro parameters to your requirements. If desired, you can preview these changes by clicking 'Refresh'.
  6. Click 'Insert' to put the macro into the page.

You can also insert macros via autocomplete. For more information, see Using Autocomplete in the Rich Text Editor.

Parameters

Parameters are options that you can include in Confluence macros to control the content or format of the macro output. The table below lists relevant parameters for this macro.

Parameter names are different in the macro browser and in wiki markup. Below we show the macro browser parameter names in bold text, and the equivalent wiki markup parameters in (bracketed) text. If we do not show any parameter name for the wiki markup, then you should leave out the parameter name and simply include the parameter value as the first parameter, immediately after the colon (:).

Parameter Required? Default Description
Number of Labels to Display
(count)
no 100 Specifies the total number of labels to display in the heatmap.
Restrict Labels to this Space Key
(spaceKey)
no none Restricts the list of popular labels to the specified space.
Style of Labels
(style)
no list Displays the list of popular labels in standard bullet-point 'list' form or as a 'heatmap'. The heatmap style uses different font sizes depending on their rank of popularity, ordered by label names. The list style orders labels by popularity (highest first).

Examples

Show the 5 most popular labels in all spaces as a list

{popular-labels:count=5}

Show the 20 most popular labels in the DOC space as a heatmap

{popular-labels:style=heatmap|spaceKey=DOC|count=20}
