Page Review Reminders for Confluence

Set a reviewer and a due date on a page. A banner shows on the page, and the reviewer, or the page owner if none is set, is @mentioned when it is due. No Premium plan needed.

Try it on the Atlassian Marketplace Getting started: your first review date in four steps 日本語のページ

Free for up to 10 users; see the Marketplace listing for paid tiers. Runs entirely on Atlassian. For Confluence Cloud.

The Set review policy dialog — Set review policy: reviewer, due date and repeat interval.

In four lines

The problemPages go stale and nobody reviews them. Confluence Cloud keeps review dates in Premium’s Content Manager, so on other plans there is no review date at all.
Where it is on screenOn the page itself: a banner at the top, the Review item in the byline, and Set review policy in the page’s “…” menu. The admin dashboard is under Apps.
What you doPick a reviewer and a due date, or a repeat interval. When it comes due the page shows a banner and the reviewer is @mentioned in a comment. Press Mark as reviewed to move the date on.
What you getOverdue and due-soon pages are easy to see, in a table for admins, and the reviewer gets Confluence’s own notification.

What you can do

Pick a reviewer. Pick a date.

Set review policy takes a reviewer, a due date and, if you like, a repeat interval, in one dialog. The settings are saved as a page property. The page body is not edited.

A banner on the page when review is due

The page itself tells you: a banner when the review is due soon or overdue, with Mark as reviewed. The byline shows the due date.

A page with a review-due banner — The review banner at the top of a page, and the due date in the byline.

The reviewer gets @mentioned

A daily scan posts one comment that @mentions the reviewer, or the page owner if none is set. Confluence then sends its own notification for the mention. The same page is not mentioned again for 30 days.

A Page Review Reminders comment that @mentions the reviewer — The @mention comment at the bottom of a page.

Every page with a policy in one table

Site administrators get a table of pages with a review policy: reviewer, due date and status. They can set or clear policies on many pages at once, after a dry-run count.

Admin overview table of pages with review status — The admin overview table.

Mark as reviewed. The date moves on.

One click, and the next due date is set from the interval.

A page byline showing the new review due date — A page after Mark as reviewed, with the new due date in the byline.

Good to know before you start

The app does not send email itself. It posts an @mention comment, and Confluence delivers its own notification according to the reader’s settings. Check the page’s comments and the bell first.
A page gets at most one reminder per 30 days.
Setting or changing a policy needs an active license. Viewing works without one.
Confluence may not email mention notifications on a site that is still in its trial period.

Questions

How do I set a review policy on a page?

Open the page and choose Set review policy from the “…” menu, or click the Review: not set item in the byline. Pick a reviewer, then a due date or a review interval in days, and save.

Why didn’t I get an email?

The app does not send email. It posts a comment that @mentions the reviewer, and Confluence sends its own notification, in the bell and by email according to your notification settings. A page gets at most one reminder per 30 days.

Do I need the Premium plan?

No. The app works on every Confluence Cloud plan.

Does my data leave Atlassian?

No. The app runs on Atlassian. Details are in the privacy policy.

What does it cost?

Free for up to 10 users; see the Marketplace listing for paid tiers.

Does publishing a new version of a page change its review date or reviewer?

Not in the usual case, with one exception below. The review date and reviewer are saved on the page itself, not on each version, so they are kept when you publish a new version. Editing a page does not mark it as reviewed; only the Mark as reviewed button does. The exception: a page with no review policy of its own, which uses the space's default settings instead, has its due date counted from its last edit, so editing it moves the date.
