Unable to change the macro documentation title of "Help"

Confluence Development Confluence Cloud

Referring to this documentation,

It seems to suggest that the documentation property is able to accept a title parameter, to change the text of the link itself. Using the example given in the page, I’ve tested this:

{
  "link": {
    "url": "https://www.example.com",
    "title": "Go Somewhere",
    "altText": "somewhere"
  }
}

The link correctly directs me to https://www.example.com, but the text is still displayed as “Help”, instead of “Go Somewhere”.

Is this a bug? Or am I missing something?

Hi @SadiqSatriya,

I suspect the title field should result in a title="Go Somewhere" attribute in the link, but it is not clear from the documentation and I don’t think this actually happens. It’s not clear to me what the altText field is for.

Further, if you specify a custom editor rather than macro parameters, the documentation link disappears.

I’ve created https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-71248 to address these issues.

Regards,
Dugald
