> Macro (aura-html)

The Advanced Table Viewer macro setup mode enables you to configure macro features. It is a full-screen view to provide data visibility and a smoother configuration experience of data source and table display options.

- The macro provides column filtering, row styling, column drag-and-drop, column grouping, search, row numbering, sorting, pagination, download, rename heading, and column and group calculation. You can configure these features and access them in both Confluence page view and edit mode.
- The macro enables the search and sort feature by default when you insert it for the first time.
- Pagination turns on automatically if the table has more than 10 rows, displaying 10 rows per page by default.
- The features configured in macro setup mode are saved as the default for every refresh of the Confluence page.
