To find an attachment, you can search the list of attachments in a space or the attachments on a specific page.

To find an attachment associated with a space:

  1. Go to a page in the space and choose Browse > Attachments.

  2. This will display a list of all attachments in the space.
  3. Browse through the list to locate the attachment.
  4. You can choose to view only files of a particular type:
    • Type the last part of the file name in the Filter By File Extension box. For example, enter 'gif' to see only image files of the GIF format.
    • Click Filter.
  5. You can view the attachment itself or the page to which it is attached by clicking on the corresponding link.

To find attachments associated with a page:

  1. Choose Tools > Attachments to go to the 'Attachments' view for the page.

  2. This will display a list of all files attached to the page.
  3. Click the attachment's linked name to view its contents in your computer's associated application.
    Info This is different from clicking an Office or PDF file's View link, which opens the file for viewing in Confluence itself.
