A plugin is an add-on to the core Confluence code, which can extend the Confluence functionality. Some plugins are shipped with Confluence, others are available for you to install yourself.

A macro allows a developer to perform programmatic functions within a page, and gives the Confluence user access to more complex content structures. Many macros are made available by plugins.

You need  System Administrator permissions in order to install and configure plugins.
