How it works

The Confluence connector pulls in all pages and comments from the specified spaces/pages once at the beginning and then pulls updates every 10 minutes.

Setting up

Authorization

Follow the guide described here to get an access token.

Indexing

  1. Navigate to the Admin Dashboard and select the Confluence Connector.

  2. For your credentials, provide the following:

    • Access Token
    • Username (typically an email address)
  3. For Confluence setup, provide:

    • Wiki Base URL: The base URL of your Confluence instance (e.g., https://your-domain.atlassian.net/wiki)
    • Is Cloud: Check this box if using Confluence Cloud, uncheck if using Confluence Server/Data Center
  4. Then choose how you’d like this connector to index your Confluence instance:

Everything

  • Indexes all content the provided credentials have access to.

Space

  • Input the key of the space to index (e.g., KB).

Page

  • Page ID: ID of the specific page to index (e.g., 131368).
    Leave empty to index the entire space.
  • Index Recursively: Check to index the specified page and all of its children.

CQL Query

  • If you want finer control over what is indexed, use a CQL query.
  • Your query must contain type=page.
    Note: Any lastmodified filters will be overwritten.
