Messaging Extension for Confluence Cloud is now available for Microsoft Teams. It is available for teams channel as well as private chat, making your dialog much more descriptive and informative.

 

Get Confluence Cloud app from Microsoft Teams app store and connect to your Confluence Cloud instance. Once connected, you will be able to search through the Confluence instance and attach the desired Confluence page, blog post etc. in the informative card.

 

The card includes:

  • Confluence Space name with page title
  • Preview of the content
  • Created and Last Updated date
  • Created by and Last modified by contributor names
  • Button to view the page in Confluence

 

Users who have access to the confluence content will only be able to view the content in the confluence website upon clicking 'View in Confluence'. All members of the team will be able to see the card if it is posted in the Teams channel.

 

Please see below example of Confluence Cloud messaging extension in Microsoft Teams.

 

Use the Confluence Cloud Messaging Extension to get the information you need.

    This post is making it hard for me with my assessment of whether to use Confluence for a document management of design specs or use Teams and SharePoint Online.  It seems that we can do either or both and it is a matter of preference. We are using Jira currently and noticed the Jira Cloud in your screen shot in Teams. Assuming configuration setting as well.

    Scott_Friedman, Confluence Server support is on our roadmap. Our goal is to first bring in parity with Confluence Cloud app and then add additional features from there.

    It does not look like Amit Oberoi is in the community anymore. Is there any update to his statement about bringing Confluence Server support to Teams?

    It would be great to be able to subscribe to a page from a channel so people can see updates posted there automatically...also would be useful to be able to post a comment on the Confluence page directly from Teams...not having to open the page.

    gustavosegura - thank you for the suggestions. We'll keep these in mind as we continue to improve the app.
