This page provides an overview of the SharePoint Connector for Confluence Cloud and the components it interacts with.
The app is running on Atlassian Forge, that means Atlassian will take care of hosting the solution and the architecture is kind of fixed.

SharePoint Online
Remarks
All communication between Confluence and SharePoint is done by the client of the end user (i.e. browser). Direct communication between these two ecosystems is not necessary.
All requests to the Microsoft Graph API are done in the context of the current user (see App Permission List ).
AI Features
For making possible the AI features in our app in the background we are using an OpenAI Service provided by Microsoft Azure configured with GPT 4o-mini model.
An Azure function acts as a proxy between the Confluence Macro and the OpenAI service to send the data to be analyzed and return the response from the OpenAI service.
The function is protected by JWT Authentication and will store no data between requests.
No data is stored in the backend of our app or in the OpenAI service. Chat history is not supported and prompts will be cleared after the dialog is closed.
