You can search for pages with Talk discussions using the Confluence Search:

Confluence Search field in the header

Use the standard Confluence Search field

 

Starting from Talk version 2.1.0, you can search talks by text and commenters. To search by text, use the talk keyword:

Code Block
languagetext
talk:"do that ASAP"

 

To search by commenter, use the talkUser keyword and a commenter's user name, first name, last name or full name:

Code Block
languagetext
talkUser:"User Name"

 

Starting from Talk version 2.3.0, talk update date range search is also available. To search for talks updated within a certain date range, use the talkUpdated keyword. The date stamps are in numeric 'yyyymmdd' format:

Code Block
languagetext
talkUpdated:[20141201 TO 20150201]

 

Besides, with the help of  Confluence Search Syntax, you can:

  • search Confluence pages for anywhere Talk macro is used. To do that, use the query:

    Code Block
    languagetext
    macroName:talk
  • apply AND search. To search for Talk content that contains several terms, use the operator AND in capital letters:

    Code Block
    languagetext
    talk:"do that ASAP" AND talkUser:asmith AND talkUpdated:[20141201 TO 20150201]
  • apply OR search. To search for Talk content that contains one of several terms, use the operator OR in capital letters:

    Code Block
    languagetext
    talkUser:asmith OR talkUser:jclarks
  • apply NOT search. To search for Talk content that contains one term but doesn't contain the other, use the operator NOT in capital letters:

    Code Block
    languagetext
    talk:"do that ASAP" NOT talk:design 

Use the standard Confluence Search field in the header to enter your query.
