Can we use Rest API to uninstall an application from the marketplace without the user and password
Asked by Nissan Almog:

Hi,

I'm trying to call this endpoint:

    curl -I --user ${ADMIN_USRNAME}:${ADMIN_PWD} -H 'Accept: application/json' -X DELETE ${CONFLUENCE_BASE_URL}'/rest/plugins/1.0/'${APP_KEY}'-key' 2>/dev/null

which uninstall a marketplace App using REST API(the API from [here](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/installing-uninstalling-upgrading-and-downgrading-marketplace-apps-on-confluence-using-rest-api-1005343959.html)). I don't have access to the user and password, only to the access_token(JWT). Is there a way to uninstall it with the access_token or any other way?

body: Hi [@Nissan Almog](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5476425)

Uninstalling a Confluence Marketplace app directly with an access token -JWT is not possible.

The method you referenced depends on basic authentication with username and password.

* Access tokens in Confluence are used for accessing data or performing specific actions within an app, not for administering the platform itself.
* Uninstalling an app involves modifying the server configuration, which requires administrative privileges which are granted through username and password.

More information can be referred in the article - [Uninstalling apps \| Atlassian Support \| Atlassian Documentation](https://confluence.atlassian.com/upm/uninstalling-apps-273875709.html)

[View and Revoke OAuth Access Tokens \| Confluence Data Center 8.9 \| Atlassian Documentation](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/view-and-revoke-oauth-access-tokens-208961965.html)

Hope this helps - Happy to help further!!  
Thank you very much and have a great one!

Eu consigo adicionar quantos convidados no confluence ?
Asked by Governan?a de TI:

Eu gostaria de saber se consigo adicionar convidados que possam editar os projetos e visualzar

Hi, a guest can access exactly one space only.

Once you set it up, you can grant a guest their specific access level in that space, including edit rights.

You can set it up like this, for example:

* You have 5 guests, 3 access space A, 2 access space B.
  * In space A, 2 can edit, once can only view and comment.
  * In space B, 1 can edit, one can comment.

comments: author: Trudy Claspill
body: Actually, a Guest can technically access more than one space, as they will be able to access any space where Anonymous access has been granted.

That is documented here:

author: Kristian Klima
body: [@Trudy Claspill](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3569011)

"Guests are a different type of user than a regular Confluence user --- they can only have access to one space at a time (assigned by an admin) and that access has certain limitations."

Given the fact that anyone can access an Anonymous space, Guest are not accessing such space as Guests.

You are correct. The Guests are not technically access any anonymous-enabled space as a "guest". But the use of Anonymous access does enable a Guest to access more spaces.

Also, while Anonymous access may be turned off Globally for Confluence, if it is still enabled at the Space level then Guests will be able to access those spaces, though they do still have to login.

Guest not able to access space?
Asked by Youmna Alomari:

Hello,

My guest is still encountering this issue even though I've granted them guest permissions in Atlassian and assigned them the necessary space access.

This Menu is called breadcum Menu where your organization have all these Applications installed.

If any user want to directly jump from confluence to the other application they can click on them and the user will be navigated to that application.

As a user we cannot remove them, only organizational user administration can customize the Menu.

Migrate to Confluence cloud from data center
Asked by AMARJIT GHOSH:

Hi all,

For our project confluence has been migrated to cloud from data center(multiple server nodes). Now we come to position to decommission all the old server. What all the things we need to follow for backup and all ?

Thank you


Answers:
author: Prakash Murugesan
body: [@AMARJIT GHOSH](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5058499) Please follow the below steps and reach out to me if you have any questions

Before decommissioning the old servers, make sure to back up all critical data from your Confluence instance. This includes documents, pages, configurations, and any other important information stored on the servers

**Verification**: Double-check that the data backup is complete and accurate. You want to ensure that all necessary information is safely stored and accessible after decommissioning the servers

**Testing**: It's a good idea to perform tests on the backup data to confirm its integrity. This helps ensure that you can successfully restore the data if needed in the future.

**Documentation**: Document the backup process and any other relevant information related to the decommissioning of the old servers. This documentation will be helpful for future reference and for any team members who need to understand the process.

**Decommissioning**: Once everything is in order, you can proceed with decommissioning the old server nodes. This may involve shutting down the servers, removing them from the network, and repurposing or disposing of them according to your organization's policies.

How do I make a team an owner of an article?
Asked by Jack_Marquez:

We want to select teams or groups to own documents, not a particular person. That way when a person leaves, we don't have to change the owner to someone else to manage that document's lifecycle. I can't seem to find a way to do this.


Answers:
author: Prakash Murugesan
body: [@Jack_Marquez](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3777391) Confluence doesn't have a built-in feature to assign ownership to teams or groups, there are some alternative approaches you can consider .use page restrictions to control who can edit or view specific pages within Confluence. While this doesn't assign ownership to teams or groups, it allows you to restrict access to certain pages based on individual user permissions. This can help ensure that only authorized team members can make changes to specific pages

comments: author: Jack_Marquez
body: Hi, I appreciate the explanation. I guess the reason for reassigning an owner is not necessarily preventing access, but when setting reminders in the automation on who should review to update it, I need more than one person to do review it. That is where a team can review what is in their 'queue', so to speak, that needs to be reviewed to ensure that the articles are getting updated on a regular basis. So, if ownership isn't the best way to set up reviewers, what would you suggest for it?


author: Prakash Murugesan
body: [@Jack_Marquez](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3777391) one option here is Use the @mention feature in Confluence to notify team members/team when a document needs review. By mentioning specific team members or groups within the document or page comments, you can alert them to review the document and provide feedback


author: Prakash Murugesan
body: [@Jack_Marquez](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3777391) did you try the above one?


author: Jack_Marquez
body: I apologize for the delay. I completely understand what you mean and this will work for us. Thanks for your help!

Confluence pricing for one person?
Asked by HoumanB:

Hello, I have looked through [confluence pricing table](https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/pricing?tab=cloud) , and I am a bit confused.

I want to make sure I understood the pricing model for the standard plan correctly.

I use confluence, jira \& bitbucket for personal use (and I love it). I am a team of one that is to say I am the only person using these products (I do not have a team).

I am reaching the 2 GB limit of storage for the free-plan.

How much would the standard-plan cost me. Is it $6.05 a month (since I am the only user)? Or is it $6.05 per month per user for a team of 10 people?

Thanks in advance!


Answers:
author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@HoumanB](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2970536)

It will be $6.05/month.

The pricing page does default to 10 users, but you can change it to 1 user on a monthly plan, and it should show the correct price.

On an annual plan though, the minimum cost is $600/year - this is because the lowest user tier is 1-10 users.

author: Nikola Perisic
body: Hello [@HoumanB](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2970536)

Per user is 6.05$, and for 10 people is 60.05$. This depends for how many users you want to pay the subscription for.

comments: author: Nikola Perisic

[@Nikola Perisic](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5166624) is correct.

I have the same use case as you - I'm paying $6.05 + tax = $7.32 for my Confluence Standard license.

If you have an app that's free for up to 10 users, it will remain free even if you upgrade from Confluence Free to Confluence Standard.

Also, you can mix and match Atlassian products, so you can use Confluence Standard next to JSM free, for example.

Support of referencing guest users in Confluence Databases

draw.io plugin restricted to 10 diagrams
Asked by Jonathan:

We've been using draw.io for a while now without issue.

We're now receiving an error that if we want to create more than 10 diagrams we have to license the product. However, we have less than 10 users and fall into the free category.

We have contacted draw.io, who suggested the issue is on Atlassian's side.

Any help would be appreciated.

Don't want Include excerpt macro to inherit restrictions
Asked by Ruth Schneider:

Hi everyone,

we have the following use case:

content is curated and updated in a space with restrictions and parts of that content is built in the excerpt macro and should be made available in another not-restricted space.

The idea behind this is that all work on the content is done in the restricted space (for valid reasons) and parts of that content should also be made available in a non-restricted space in our site.

Unfortunately the include excerpt macro seems to inherit the restrictions from the page the referenced excerpt originally lives.

I'd be grateful for tipps for workarounds or if someone could point to a macro that is suitable for that use case. I haven't been able to find one.

Thank you!

Ruth


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Ruth Schneider](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5449660) and welcome.

You ran into a very common problem with a single source authoring content that serves two purposes and must be distribute across two or more channels.

In other words, conditional content.

There is a solution but it involves 2.5 apps from the marketplace.

As far as I know, there's just one app on the marketplace that allows you to use 'conditional' content - Scroll Documents expanded by Variants for Scroll Documents by K15t. And then there's Scroll Viewport.

Essentially, Scroll Docs with Variants allow you to designate which content is public or private via a macro and Confluence labels.

You set up conditions for your variants. In our case at Emplifi, it's all content is PUBLIC except if labelled with a designated internal label (pages or variants macro).

Then we build a public site with the Viewport app that has only the PUBLIC labelled content.

The magic of Viewport is that it builds a site independently of Confluence permissions so if your page is labelled PUBLIC, it will be in Viewport even if your space is restricted - in other words, your excerpt would appear on the site.

It sounds complex but it really takes about 30 minutes to set up :) I'm happy to chat more if the solutions sounds intriguing but I'm sure the good folks at K15t would help too.

Anyway, in your case, you'd have to adjust your workflow a bit but the result would be an extremely flexible and pliable environment as you'd be able to use conditional content for all sorts of purposes.

**Disclaimer:** I don't work for K15t, we're using their apps extensively at Emplifi.

How to filter out hidden pages in the Confluence Server?
Asked by Michal Tkaczuk:

Hello,

Do you know if there is any option to filter out all hidden pages in the Confluence server instance? I know how to do it by check space by space and go to the Settings and Content tools -\> Reorder pages. I tried by Page Property Macro but without any success.


Answers:

body: Hi [@Michal Tkaczuk](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5459736)

By hidden pages you mean pages that are on the same level like home page and don't appear on sidebar page tree?

I'm not sure that this is possible in Confluence UI.

In my opinion you can find those pages via db query by finding pages without parent page and excluding all home pages from spaces.

Regards,
