Confluence plug-in
Asked by Grace Kwan:

My office is going to use Intranet Connections content management tool for file storage (e.g. Word doc, Excel, .pdf, .txt etc) and sharing in the office (on site hosting, not cloud). Is there a Confluence plug-in to be used so that the Intranet Connections tool can integrate with our existing Confluence application ? For example, in the Intranet Connections interface, we would like to modify a file which has content embedded from Confluence. After modification, the changes will also appear in Confluence.

And here is the prerequisites for different browsers:

author: Grace Kwan
body: Sorry that I made a mistake in what I asked. It should be flipped. I like to have content from Intranet Connections embedded in a Confluence document and if I save the Confluence document, it also saves to Intranet Connections.

body: [@Grace Kwan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1184930) I am not sure if i understand you clearly.

* What is "Intranet Connections" in this case?
* Do you mean "Confluence document" Confluence page?
* I don't understand the relationship here in "if I save the Confluence document, it also saves to Alfresco." What do you save in Confluence?

body: Intranet Connections is a tool which we will be using to store and share documents among employee in our office. It has the features which Microsoft SharePoint and Alfresco have. <https://comparisons.financesonline.com/intranet-connections-vs-sharepoint>

I like to have Confluence page with content embedded from Intranet Connections. e.g. a table from a page in Intranet Connections is embedded inside the Confluence page. After saving the Confluence page, the embedded content (in this case it is the table) from Intranet Connections can also be saved at the same time.

Sorry about the confusion, forget about Alfreso, I had it typed wrong. We are trying to replace Alfresco by Intranet Connections and I put Alfresco down in the above reply by mistake.

body: As far as i know Confluence does not support any kind of integration with Intranet Connections

What i am thinking is you can use HTML Macro to include the content from Intranet Connections into Confluence page <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/html-macro-38273085.html>

however that will stop at displaying thing instead of "saving the Confluence page, the embedded content (in this case it is the table) from Intranet Connections can also be saved at the same time."

Because you talked about Microsoft Sharepoint, there is a Sharepoint Connector plugin here <https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.confluence.extra.sharepoint/server/overview> just in case you want to use it
