About Confluence Cloud

The Confluence Cloud connector gathers space, page, and membership data you need for access-review and change-management evidence. The wizard is two parts: first you provide your *.atlassian.net subdomain so Iru can reach https://YOUR_SUBDOMAIN.atlassian.net/wiki/api/v2, then you supply HTTP Basic credentials built from your Atlassian email and API token.

How it works

REST calls use Basic authentication:
Authorization: Basic base64(email:api_token)
Passwords are not accepted - only API tokens.
DetailValue
CategoryKnowledge management
AuthenticationBasic auth (email + Atlassian API token)
ScopeConfluence Cloud REST API v2 (not Data Center/Server)
Documentation: Basic auth for Confluence Cloud, REST v2 intro, API tokens.

Prerequisites

  • Access to the spaces you want evidence from.
  • Your subdomain - the label before .atlassian.net (for example acme when users visit https://acme.atlassian.net/wiki).

Connect Confluence Cloud to Iru

Confluence Cloud

1

Create an Atlassian API token

Visit id.atlassian.com/manage/api-tokens, create a token named like Iru Compliance, pick an expiry (maximum 365 days), and copy the secret once it appears.

Iru Compliance

1

Open Sources

In Iru Compliance, on the left navigation bar, expand Compliance and select Sources.
Left navigation: Compliance expanded, Sources selected
2

Turn on Confluence

Find Confluence (use Category or Search by name or description). On that card, turn on the toggle. A browser tab or window may open for the connector wizard.
3

Enter subdomain in the wizard

Enter your Confluence subdomain (for example acme). Confirm the preview URL matches https://acme.atlassian.net/wiki/api/v2, then continue.
4

Enter Basic authentication

When the wizard asks for Basic authentication, provide your Atlassian email and API token.
5

Confirm the source is Active

Submit any remaining wizard steps. When validation succeeds, the Confluence card shows Active.

Troubleshooting

Check pop-up blocker settings for the Iru site and try again.
Refresh the wizard by toggling the source off/on if the deep link expired.
Email must match your Atlassian ID; password field must contain an API token.
Token inherits your space permissions - grant the account access or switch identities.
Double-check the hostname your users rely on - typos break routing immediately.

Considerations

Tokens expire yearly: rotate ahead of deadlines.
