Confluence allows you to create bulleted or numbered lists, and is flexible enough to allow a combination of the two lists.

Simple lists

Use the hyphen (-) to create simple lists.

(info) Make sure there is a space between the hyphen and your text.

What you need to type

What you will get

- some
- bullet

Bulleted lists

Use the asterisk (*) to create bullets. For each subsequent level, add an extra asterisk.

(info) Make sure there is a space between the asterisk and your text.

Numbered lists

Use the hash (#) to create numbered lists.
