Set up a Confluence v2 connector

ConductorOne provides identity governance for Confluence. Integrate your Confluence instance with ConductorOne to run user access reviews (UARs) and enable just-in-time access requests.

This is an updated and improved version of the Confluence connector! If you’re setting up Confluence with ConductorOne for the first time, you’re in the right place.

Capabilities

  • Sync user identities from Confluence to ConductorOne

  • Resources supported:

    • Groups
    • Spaces
    • Space permissions

Add a new Confluence connector

This task requires either the Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne.

  1. In ConductorOne, click Connectors > Add connector.

  2. Search for Confluence v2 and click Add.

    Don’t see the Confluence v2 connector? Reach out to support@conductorone.com to add Confluence v2 to your Connectors page.

  1. Choose how to set up the new Confluence connector:

    • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)

    • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

    • Create a new managed app

    Do you SSO into Confluence using your identity, SSO, or federation provider? If so, make sure to add the connector to the unmanaged Confluence app that was created automatically when you integrated your provider with ConductorOne, rather than creating a new managed app.

  1. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

    A Confluence connector owner must have the following permissions:

    • Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne
    • Administrator access in Confluence
  1. Click Next.

Next steps

  • If you are the connector owner, proceed to Configure your Confluence connector for instructions on integrating Confluence with ConductorOne.

  • If someone else is the connector owner, ConductorOne will notify them by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

Configure your Confluence connector

A user with the Connector Administrator or Super Administrator role in ConductorOne and Administrator access in Confluence must perform this task.

Step 1: Create an API token

  1. Log into your Confluence account with Administrator access.

  2. Navigate to https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens.

  3. Click Create API token.

  4. Give your token a label, such as ConductorOne, and click Create.

  5. Carefully copy the newly generated API token. We’ll use it in Step 2.

Step 2: Add your Confluence credentials to ConductorOne

  1. In ConductorOne, navigate to the Confluence connector by either:

    • Clicking the Set up connector link in the email you received about configuring the connector.

    • Navigate to Connectors > Confluence v2 (if there is more than one Confluence v2 listed, click the one with your name listed as owner and the status Not connected).

  2. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

  3. Enter your Confluence domain (the URL of your Confluence instance is <YOUR DOMAIN>.atlassian.net) into the Confluence site domain field.

  4. Enter the username for your Confluence account in the Username field.

  5. Paste the API token you generated in Step 1 into the API key field.

  6. Click Save.

  7. The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

That’s it! Your Confluence connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.

Configure the Confluence integration using Terraform

As an alternative to the integration process described above, you can use Terraform to configure the integration between Confluence and ConductorOne.

See the ConductorOne Confluence integration resource page in the ConductorOne Terraform registry for example usage and the full list of required and optional parameters.
