Setting Up Reviewing of Confluence Pages in Crucible

You need to first install the Confluence Crucible Plugin in the Confluence instance (see instructions on installing Confluence plugins), and you must set up a trust relationship so that your Crucible instance trusts your Confluence instance.

To set up Confluence as a Code Repository in Crucible,

  1. Start Crucible then open the 'Admin' menu by clicking the Administration link in the footer of the page.
  2. Under the 'Repository Settings' heading, click 'Repository List' in the left-hand navigation bar.
  3. The 'Repository List' screen opens.
  4. Find the Confluence repository plugin and click its Configure Plugin link.
  5. The 'Configure Plugin' screen opens. Click 'Add Repository'.
  6. The 'Add Repository' screen opens. Fill in the fields.
    Field What to enter
    Name Choose a unique name for the repository.
    URL Enter the URL of your Confluence instance.
    Space Key You may optionally enter a space key here to restrict Crucible's view to that key only. If there are many spaces in your Confluence instance you will find that this improves performance. You can set up several Confluence repositories in Crucible, each using the same Confluence instance but covering a different Space.


  7. Click 'Save'. The view will return to the list of repositories.
  8. Now, access your Confluence instance. Open the 'Confluence Administration Console', then select 'Trusted Applications'. The Confluence 'Trusted Applications Details' dialog opens.
  9. In the 'Trusted Applications Details' dialog, enter the URL of your Crucible instance into the 'Name' field and click 'Send Request'. The 'Application Alias' will be automatically retrieved from Crucible. Save your changes.
  10. Confluence is now set up as a code repository for Crucible. You will be able to select your Confluence from the list of repositories, then select files from the Confluence wiki and add them to reviews.
