Atlassian Confluence Connector

Index spaces, pages, and comments in Confluence.

The Atlassian Confluence connector indexes spaces, pages, and comments across your Confluence instance.

The connector supports Atlassian Confluence Cloud.

Installing the Confluence App Descriptor

In order to target your specific Atolio deployment, the Atlassian Confluence connector requires a private listing to be installed instead of the Atlassian marketplace version, as explained here. This can be disabled again after the connect app is installed.

To start, within your Confluence instance:

  1. Navigate to the application management page by clicking Apps -> Manage your apps.
  2. Click Settings at the bottom, then enable private listings and development mode before clicking Apply.
atolioctl
  1. The Upload app link will now be enabled.
atolioctl
  1. Specify the URL provided by your Deployment Engineer. It will be similar to the following with your chosen DNS name:
  • https://relay.search.example.com/connectors/confluencecloud/default/install/atlassian-connect.json
  • Note: if you have multiple Confluence instances, please make sure to provide the correct instance name in the URL above (i.e. default in the example).

Once the Atolio Connect app has been installed, the configuration will be stored securely in your Atolio deployment. You can now disable the development mode and private listings as needed.

(Optional) Scope Confluence indexing

If you want fine-grained control over which Confluence spaces should be indexed, provide a list of inclusions or exclusions to your Deployment Engineer: they can use the includes or excludes feature in Atolio configuration to control the relevant spaces that should be indexed.
