Zylon integrates directly with Confluence Server / Data Center using the Confluence REST API No Atlassian application, OAuth configuration, or external services are required.

​
Requirements

  • A running Confluence Data Server instance
  • A Confluence user account with access to the Spaces you want to import
  • Network access from Zylon to the Confluence instance

​
Authentication

Zylon authenticates using Basic Authentication:
  • Username: Confluence username
  • Password: Confluence password
The permissions available to Zylon are exactly the permissions of the user you authenticate with.

​
Configure Zylon

/etc/zylon/zylon-conf.yaml
The configuration file is YAML. Be careful with indentation, spaces, and quoting.
Add the following configuration: 
integration:

    enabled: true

Troubleshooting

​
I try to upload files to the knowledge base and Confluence button is greyed out

Clear the browser cache and try again.

​
When I click on Upload files -> From Confluence the log in is not working

  • Check that the domain copy pasted correctly into Zylon config file
  • Check that the username and password used are correct.

​
I don’t see any space to import

  • Make sure you have logged in into Confluence with an account that has access to spaces.
