Confluence 4.0 Compatibility

Confluence 4.0 features a brand-new editing experience that makes creating content easy. The SharePoint Connector for Confluence takes full advantage of the new editor to make SharePoint integration easier to discover and use.

SharePoint macros accessible via Confluence macro Autocomplete
Quickly access SharePoint content while editing in Confluence

Quickly insert SharePoint content from the Insert menu

For more information on the brand-new editing features in Confluence 4.0 and beyond, see The Editor.

 

 

Link to SharePoint Documents

A completely revamped SharePoint Link macro makes it easy to embed links to your SharePoint server's Office documents while editing. Links inserted using the SharePoint Link macro allow users to open and edit Office documents directly in the appropriate Office application (e.g. Excel, Word) without having to load the SharePoint site.

For a detailed guide to using this macro, please consult our documentation on Using the SharePoint Link Macro.

 

 

Update Confluence Content in SharePoint Automatically

New versions of the Confluence Web Parts for SharePoint allow users to 'watch' Confluence content from within SharePoint; subscribing to receive email notifications whenever a new version of the page or blog post is available. Even better, the web part will automatically update if the content is edited or changed while your browser window is open!

See our comprehensive guide to the full set of features available in the Confluence Web Parts for SharePoint -  Using the SharePoint 2010 Web Parts.
