Import Markdown Into Confluence



Convert markdown to confluence markup. I recently did some investigations at work on how to keep documentation up to date. I guess we’ve all been in the situation that the documentation we have is drifting from how the actual systems/applications look like. To import markdown files: Select Import Notes from the user menu in the bottom-left corner of Notejoy Select the target notebook for the import by clicking the notebook name in the header Drag the markdown files into the Import Notes dialog, or select Choose files. The Markdown Macro for Confluence is an application that provides quick and simple support for markdown in Atlassian Confluence.

Atlassian Confluence is a content collaboration tool used to help teams collaborate and share knowledge efficiently. Based on my limited knowledge of Confluence, I've identified several ways that you can write technical documentation in DITA and then make it available on the Confluence platform:

Publish DITA to Microsoft Word and import in Confluence

Oxygen XML Editor comes bundled with support to publish DITA content to Microsoft Word using the DITA to Word plugin: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-editor/topics/ditamap-ms-word.html.

Once you publish the DITA project to Word, you can use the Import Word Document action in Confluence to import the Word document.
During the import process, you will be able to choose to split the document into multiple pages depending on the headings.

Publish DITA to HTML5 and import in Confluence

Import Markdown Into Confluence Chrome

Although Confluence supports out-of-the-box importing only from Microsoft Word, there is a commercial file importer plugin for Confluence: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221333/all-in-one-file-importer-for-confluence. This plugin can import various file formats to Confluence, including Markdown and HTML.

The plugin contributes an import action that can be used to either import individual HTML or Markdown files or entire folders. The plugin might try to import various unwanted file formats (such as CSS and image files) so these types of files need to be manually deleted before the import process. Also, the plugin does not seem to properly resolve links between the imported HTML files.

Publish DITA to HTML5 and paste from Web Browser to Confluence

If you just want to update a few pages, you can publish DITA to HTML, open the published HTML content in a web browser, select and copy the contents, then paste in a Confluence page. Confluence seems capable of converting the pasted HTML content to its own HTML-like format. Drivers fiio. Some manual cleanup may be required after pasting the content.

If a DITA OT plugin were to implement special DITA to Confluence-like HTML output, it would probably need special handling for:
  • Internal links.
  • Links to binary resources.
  • Images.
