> ℹ️ Starting with version 2.1.10 for Jira 8 and above, you may display a Total Time in Status custom field in Confluence.

It can be helpful to display information from Jira on a Confluence page for team meetings, project status updates, release notes and customer communications, sharing updates with people in your organization who don't use Jira regularly. For this goal, you are able to use the native Confluence macro - Jira Issues.

## Connect Confluence and Jira

Before you can use this macro, your Confluence and Jira applications must be connected via [Application Links](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/linking-to-another-application-360677690.html). People viewing the page will see the publicly accessible issues from the Jira site. If your Jira site has restricted viewing (that is, people need permission to view issues) then they will need to authenticate before seeing the restricted issues. See [Use Jira applications and Confluence together](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/use-jira-applications-and-confluence-together-427623543.html) for more information.
