Embed Confluence Cloud pages as web part in SharePoint


Prerequisite: It is required that you have finished the following installation guide to be able to add web parts in your SharePoint pages.

SharePoint: Deploy Confluence Page Embedder to App Catalog

Copy Embed Code from Confluence

You can embed any Confluence page into SharePoint Online. To accomplish that, navigate to your Confluence page which you want to embed, click on more actions, Apps, and select “Embed into SharePoint”:

A dialog will open and you have two possibilities to copy “Confluence Page embed script”:

  1. You can copy the embed script via the copy button:

To insert a Confluence page in SharePoint, edit the page and click on the + symbol and choose "Confluence Page":

Save Configuration

You may preview or save your configuration at any time.

Finish the process by saving the SharePoint page.

Limitations

  • You can add up to 10 web parts on one SharePoint page

  • Dynamic content from Confluence Pages will not be rendered

    • When you embed Confluence pages which contain SharePoint Connector for Confluence macros, then a warning message will appear that the macro is no longer supported.

    • This is introduced as part of our effort to notify customers to update their pages from the legacy editor into the new one in order to preview macros. Unfortunately in case of Confluence Pages embedded in SharePoint this behavior cannot be controlled and the message will display regardless if you are using the legacy or modern pages of Confluence.

  • Confluence Blog posts are not supported

Hint

  1. Confluence Page not shown

If you do not see the Confluence Page body, then it means that you are not logged in to Confluence. Depending on your browser, you will see a message like in the screenshot below. Log in to Confluence to see the Confluence Page body.
