SSH Authentication still asks for OAuth
Asked by Lukas Angst:

I have set up a SSH protocol with a SSH Key, created by Putty. In Bitbucket, i was able to insert the OpenSSH Public Key and on my Laptop, I was able to connect to Bitbucket by the ssh-agent. Also i started Pageant and connected to Bitbucket.org using Putty.

Now i wanted to use the SSH Key in Sourcetree. There it is possible to add an Account, that uses the SSH protocol, but for credentials it still uses OAuth. (Basic selection has this bug, "unexpected character")

Is there another way to authenticate other than OAuth or Basic?

I thought, thats why one would use SSH?

Thanks for your Feedback


Answers:
author: Lukas Angst
body: Found the problem. Sourcetree needed an app password. Here, it is important to just use lower case letters for the password name.

How do I enable the options to import Word and Markdown to a page?
Asked by Ines C:

Hi all,

I have two questions and would appreciate your help.

1. Is it possible to import Markdown to Confluence and, if yes, how do we do this?

2. How do I enable the option to [Import Word Document](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/import-a-word-document-into-confluence-170493136.html?) so that it's always visible on the "More options" menu of all pages?

I only see this option right after selecting "Create" in the top navigation bar. Then it's gone.

Is there a way to tell if the Whiteboard feature is being used?
Asked by Christine Green:

I would like to be able to find metrics related to Whiteboard creation and activity. Thanks!


Answers:
author: Stefan Draber
body: Hi [@Christine Green](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4639784)

since I asked myself the same, I found at least some kind of a workaround: in the Confluence advanced search (enter the search bar and just hit return) you can filter by content type, and thus also by Whiteboards.

It's not really analytical metrics, but at least you can see the whiteboards created in your instance and maybe find some key users/use cases.

Using Confluence Database as an enhanced Table of Contents for a Confluence Space
Asked by Amelia Fraczkowski:

For each Confluence Space, there is the "All Content" page, which provides a current overview of all the pages in that space. However, the customisation options are very limited unlike that of Confluence Database.

Question 1. Is there anyway to configure the Confluence Database to include an up to date list of pages in a Space? That is, to include new pages created even after the database was initially setup?

I am aware that now when setting up a database you get the option to link content from Jira or Confluence but I tried clicking on "insert results" (hoping the unfiltered list contains all confluence pages in the organisation so that I could import all and then use better filtering) without using any filtering option but clicking the button did nothing. I tried using the filter to filter the pages by typing the name of the "Space" but did not filter the results as expected.

I raised this question <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Shortcut-to-add-quot-Page-Link-quot-entries-to-confluence/qaq-p/2597061> sometime ago but as the functionality is evolving, is there a better way to do this provided there is no solution to question 1 above?

Bad Image quality after Word Export
Asked by francois.bonnard:

Hello community

I have exported a confluence page with jpg images.

Original size in Confluence is 1733 x 1012 px

Size after export : 468 x 273 px

Is there a way to preserve the quality ? If not probably to consider as an essential feature.

(in my professional environment, hard to work with such a quality)

Thanks


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: [@francois.bonnard](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5415430) and welcome to the Community.

You can try [Scroll Word Exporter](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/24982/scroll-word-exporter-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud) (there's a trial run) and see if you can better results image-wise.

The app offers a good degree of customization so if Word exports are important for you, it might be the solution.


author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@francois.bonnard](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5415430) It sounds like the original size might be too large for a page in Word. Depending on the number of images, it might be quicker/easier to download the images from Confluence and then replace the exported ones within the Word file.

How to change the authorization of 1000 of confluence sides in the cloud with automation

When talking about "Confluence sides", I support you don't mean a site (as in \<sitename\>.atlassian.net). I assume that you are talking about Confluence pages (in Spaces).

Are you talking about space permissions (who can view/edit the space) or page restrictions (who can view/edit a specific page within a space)?

Thanks to elaborate with an example.

Answers:

Server was officially discontinued so I'm not sure you can get a new license.

You can get a new Cloud license (Free for up to 10 users).

To migrate you stuff, you can export your spaces as XML and/or use a migration assistant (never done DC to Cloud, only Server to Cloud).

Unable to delete this duplicate Atlassian URL Created by Mistake
Asked by Servozmi Technology:

You may be able to see in the URL that there are 2 URLs created by mistake.  
But whenever I open Administration Settings from 'Servozmi' site, it only opens it for ServozmiTechnology. Which I can understand if it is integrated under one account, but then, how come it doesn't show the settings for the 'Servozmi' site?

It's like the Servozmi website doesn't exist for settings but it is there, and it opens.  
Only place where I can see a reference to the URL is in settings is at:

Export missing draw.io embedded diagrams
Asked by Andrew Boyle:

When I export to PDF or Word, all the draw.io embedded diagrams show as broken link icons, how can i fix this to include the diagrams?


Answers:
author: MJ Valencia (draw.io)
body: Hi Andrew,

This issue typically happens when draw.io diagrams are not fully loaded or properly included during the export process. Here are a few steps you can take to resolve this:

* Before exporting, make sure all draw.io diagrams are fully loaded on the Confluence page. Sometimes, diagrams may not be rendered correctly if the page hasn't finished loading.
* Occasionally, browser issues can interfere with the export process. Try updating your browser to the latest version or switching to a different browser to see if that resolves the issue.
* If your Confluence page uses public links for diagrams, make sure that these are properly configured. If they aren't set up correctly, the diagrams might show up as broken links. Also, double-check the export settings and make sure that diagrams are set to be included.
* Another workaround is to open each diagrams in draw.io, use the "File" \> "Print" option, and then select "Save as PDF". This will ensure the diagram is embedded directly in the exported file.
* As an extra possible suggestion: use an app like k15ts Scroll PDF Exporter.

If you've tried all of the above and are still experiencing issues, there might be a more specific problem at plat. Feel free to provide more details, and I'll do my best to help! :)

Master Data share to Guests across spaces
Asked by Rhys Gottwald:

Good morning all,

I'm an ERP consultant and we use Confluence extensively. Each implementation gets its own Space, and we provide guest access to our customers.

We'd love to add a set of Quick Reference Guides (QRGs) to each Space. The crucial part is that these QRGs need to be linked to a master set, so any updates to the master automatically propagate to all the Spaces.

I tried using the include page or excerpt macro, but it seems guest users can't view the content due to permission restrictions.

Has anyone else encountered this challenge? Any suggestions on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance for your help!


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Rhys Gottwald](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5570606)

Look at the [Space Sync for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1225377/space-sync-for-confluence-copy-publish-pages-over-sites?tab=overview&hosting=cloud).

It allows you to sync pages among multiple Confluence spaces and sites.

In you implementation, you would have one Master space with your QRGs and push them (one way) to your individual target space every time you make an updated.

You can sync individual pages and you can choose which space gets an update. In other words, you can choose to sync 5 pages to all target spaces and one other page to 2 spaces. All up to you.

The permission issue will be solved by way of copying the actual content to the target space.

Besides amplifying standard manually created Confluence tables, we provide the whole [spreadsheet family](https://spreadsheets-for-confluence.stiltsoft.com&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111):

* You'll be able to import your existing data in .csv/.xlsx formats
* You'll be able to convert your manually created tables and macro generated tables (for example, Jira Issues) into spreadsheets
* You'll be able to create a spreadsheet from scratch

Then you can work right in Confluence with all the basic Excel-like features (filtration, cell formulas, conditional formatting, pivot tables, etc.). And there is no need to switch between different tools.

How to translate a confluence document into another language with Smartcat
Asked by Wolfgang Deininger:

Hi everyone,

i would like to know how to translate a Confluence document from one language into antother using Smartcat. The only way I now is by creating in Confluence a word or pdf file, uploading it to Smartcat and getting back a translated pdf and transfer it to Confluence by copy-paste. And this doing it page by page... a lot of work.

Is there another way to do that? So that I can upload all pages at the same time and translate without creating word/pdf and copy-paste?

Thnak you very much and best regards :)

Answers:
author: Elena Zanchetta
body: Hi [@Wolfgang Deininger](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5572461)

I use [Translations for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/28648/translations-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) because it allows me to create and edit page content in multiple languages while staying in the same page. It's a lot faster than the method you described. The app works with macro. Use the language macro in the language you want and add your translation. You can also include as many languages as you want on a single page. In view mode, your users will only see the page content in their preferred language.  
You can also try Atlassian Intelligence in combination with it for the translations. You can read more about this in this [blog post](https://www.bitvoodoo.app/blog/multilingual-confluence-pages-with-ai/).

I hope it will be helpful!

There might be a ready-made connector (an app that can connect to Smartcat) or a way to do it via APIs.

You may check [Translations for Scroll Documents](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1227238/translations-for-scroll-documents?hosting=cloud&tab=overview), it's an expansion pack for Scroll Documents that works with XLIFF files and you effectively creates virtual pages with translated content for your Confluence pages, so you can switch between the languages in the menu.

In a nutshell, you export your content in XLIFFs from Confluence, load them into your translation tool/service, get the localized XLIFFs back, and import them back to Confluence.

comments: author: Wolfgang Deininger
body: Dear Kristian,

I found a possibility by Scroll Documents \> Manage \> Translations. Once the translations are activated, I can generate XLIFFS to export and import.

Thank you very much and best regards,
