The Recently Updated Dashboard macro displays a list of the most recently changed pages, blogs and files in your site. It is similar to the Recently Updated macro but with tabs to allow you to see all updates, updates from your favorite spaces or updates from your network (the people you follow).

- In the Confluence editor, choose

Speeding up macro entry with autocomplete:
