Introducing SharePoint 2013 Compatibility
You asked for it and we delivered it. The Confluence SharePoint Connector 1.8 now provides full support for SharePoint 2013. All the integration points available in SharePoint 2010 are now available with SharePoint 2013. This includes:
Macros for embedding SharePoint 2013 content inside Confluence
Web parts for embedding Confluence inside SharePoint 2013
Federated Search for searching across Confluence and SharePoint 2013
Improved Federated Search Results
The Confluence SharePoint Connector allows you to search across your Confluence site and your SharePoint sites and see the results in one, single view. In this version, we've improved the search results with:
- Additional information - we now show additional information at the top search screen like your search query and the time it took to return the results.
- Search term highlighting - now you'll see your search term highlighted in bold in the search results screen.
- Expandable/collapsible excerpts - at the end of your search results excerpt click "..." to view more content.
- Customize look and feel - See our documentation for more information how to customize the look and feel.
