Confluence 3.5 : Integrating Confluence with Other Applications
This page last changed on Mar 11, 2011 by ggaskell.
Application LinksYou can integrate Confluence with other applications using Application Links. Application Links allows you to link Confluence to applications like Atlassian's JIRA. Linking two applications allows you to share information and access one application's functions from within the other. For example, if you linked your Confluence server with a JIRA server, you could view JIRA issues in a Confluence page via the JIRA Issues Macro. You also can associate entities of two linked applications. For example, you could associate a Confluence space with a JIRA project. This allows you to take advantage of additional integration features like link rendering, which lets you create links to issues or pages in the project or space using a simple textual reference, e.g. [JRA-1234], [myConfluenceSpace:Test Page]. Getting StartedThe Quick Start Guide provides instructions on how to set up the most common application link configuration. If you want to set up application links with a different configuration, see the Administering Application Links. Administrator's GuideThe administrator's guide is for administrators who want to configure application links for the applications. The guide contains information on adding a new application link, configuring the authentication for an application link, setting up entity links and more. Developer ResourcesThese resources are for developers who want to develop with the Application Links plugin. Take a look at the Development Hub.
