Confluence 4.1 : Adding JIRA Gadgets to a Confluence Page

This is a summary of the steps required to add a JIRA gadget to a Confluence page:

  • If your JIRA site does not allow anonymous access, your JIRA administrator will need to configure JIRA to trust Confluence via Application Links. See the JIRA administrator's guide.
  • Your Confluence administrator will need to add the JIRA gadget URL to the list of authorised external gadgets in Confluence. See the Confluence administrator's guide.
  • Now you can add the gadget to a wiki page in Confluence using the Macro Browser. See the Confluence user's guide to the Macro Browser and the Gadget macro.

Note that the Confluence Gadget macro is a specific type of macro which is used to display a gadget in a Confluence page - so once you have configured external gadgets in the Confluence Administration Console, they will appear in the Macro Browser.
