How to add the Atlassian Confluence plugin

1. In SquaredUp browse to Settings > Plugins > Add plugin and search for the plugin.

2. Display Name:

   Enter a name for your plugin. This helps you to identify this plugin in the list of your plugins.

3. Domain URL:

   The domain for your Atlassian instance in the format
   https://your-domain.atlassian.net

4. User Email Address:

   Enter the email address of your Atlassian user account. You need to have access to that user account since you need to create an API token with the same user you entered here (see next step).

   Here's how the email address (Atlassian user account) you use here influences which data will be returned:

   For Confluence plugin: If the user account doesn't have access to a space, the space won't be returned. If the user account has read-only access to a space, you'll get the pages in that space.

   For the Jira plugin: Even if the user account you use here has just read-only access to a project, the issues in that project will still be returned.

5. API Token:

   Go to your Atlassian account, create an API token, and paste it in here. You can go directly to your Atlassian API tokens using this link: https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens

   Note: You need to create the API token with the same user account you used for the User Email Address field.

   Tip: If you are using the Atlassian Confluence and the Atlassian Jira plugin you can use the same token for both plugins.

6. Leave the checkbox for Automatically create a workspace ticked, this will create a new workspace for this plugin containing out of the box dashboards and scopes.

7. Optionally, select whether you would like to restrict access to this plugin instance. By default, restricted access is set to off.

   Restrict access to this plugin?

   The term plugin here really means plugin instance. For example, a user may configure two instances of the AWS plugin, one for their development environment and one for production. In that case, each plugin instance has its own access control settings.

   By default, Restrict access to this plugin? is set to off. The plugin can be viewed, edited and administered by anyone. If you would like to control who has access to this plugin, switch Restrict access to this plugin? to on.

   Use the Restrict access to this plugin? dropdown to control who has access to the workspace:

   • By default, the user setting the permissions for the plugin will be given Full Control and the Everyone group will be given Link to workspace permissions.

   • Tailor access to the plugin, as required, by selecting individual users or user groups from the dropdown and giving them Link to workspace or Full Control permissions.

   • If the user is not available from the dropdown, you are able to invite them to the plugin by typing in their email address and then clicking Add. The new user will then receive an email inviting them to create an account on SquaredUp Cloud. Once the account has been created, they will gain access to the tenant.

   • At least one user or group must be given Full Control.

   • Admin users can edit the configuration, modify the Access Control List (ACL) and delete the plugin, regardless of the ACL chosen.

   Plugin access levels

   Access Level:

   Link to workspace	User can link the plugin to any workspace they have at least Editor permissions for. Data from the plugin can then be viewed by anyone with any access to the workspace. User can share the plugin data with anyone they want. User cannot configure the plugin in any way, or delete it.
   Full Control	User can change the plugin configuration, ACL, and delete the plugin.

   See Access control for more information.
