Set Up the Confluence Connector

The Confluence Connector allows you to ingest pages, subpages, and their attachments from selected Confluence spaces directly into your project.
The connector currently supports only text and images. Tables and videos are not supported.

​
Prerequisites

  • An Atlassian account with access to the Confluence spaces you wish to ingest.
Decide on OAuth configuration - Airia managed with required scopes for all Atlassian integrations or Bring your own OAuth connector with custom scopes that best fit your integration and security requirements.

​
Set Up with Airia managed OAuth

Airia Managed Atlassian OAuth connector is available for all SaaS customers. It can be found under OAuth connectors component in the Settings tab.

​
Set up with your custom managed OAuth

The detailed list will show ingested pages and subpages marked as json file types, with all attachments listed as separate file types.

​
Permissions Enforcement

Airia filters query results based on the end-user’s access permissions in Confluence.

​
Prerequisites

To enable permission enforcement for your data source:
  • Single Sign-On (SSO) must be enabled for your Airia project.
  • Permission check must be enabled when configuring the specific data source (e.g., when setting up the Confluence data source).
Platform users with read permissions can view the files and their generated chunks within a data source in the platform UI when it’s not user-specific. Permission checking is applied only at query time, not when viewing data in the UI.

​
Next Steps

Once the data has been successfully ingested, your Confluence data source is ready to be used with an Agent.
