Requirement Yogi introduces two macros:

titleIMPORTANT

Requirement Yogi macros should reside in tables otherwise they will be dismissed, unlike Requirement Yogi Link macros that can be inserted anywhere in the page.

Page transformation:

You can use Requirement Yogi to transform a page and automatically create Requirement Yogi macros.

This is especially helpful when you want to copy paste an existing document into Confluence and easily create requirements.

Start by creating tables in a confluence page:
