Do you want to add a page or a blog post? Just choose the Create option in the Confluence header. It looks like this:

Below is a description of this and other options for creating content, and some answers to questions you may have.

Do you want to update an existing page or blog post? Jump straight to the topic on Using the Editor, or see Working with Pages for help with moving, renaming and organising content.

A note about permissions: To create a page, you need the 'Add Pages' permission for the space where you will add the page. To create a blog post, you need the 'Add Blog' permission for that space. A space administrator can give you these permissions. See Giving People Access to Content.

Adding a page or a blog post

You can add pages and blog posts via the 'Create' dialog.

To create content via 'Create' in the header:

  1. Choose Create in the Confluence header. The 'Create' dialog will open.
  2. Select the space where you want to put your page or blog post. Confluence will offer a list of your recently-visited spaces.
    Note: If the space you want is not in the list, please go to the space and try again. (In very large Confluence sites, Confluence cannot show all spaces in the selection list. By going to the space, you will ensure that it appears in the list.)
  3. Choose the type of content you want to create.
    You can create a blank page, a blog post, or a page based on a template or blueprint.
  4. Choose Next.
  5. The Confluence editor will open. Add your content in the editor pane, or update the default content supplied by the template.
  6. 保存を選択します 。

Other ways to open the 'Create' dialog:

  • Go to the parent page and choose Create child page in the sidebar. (This option is not available in the Documentation theme.)
  • Shortcut key: Press C on your keyboard.

Location of the new page

新しいページを作成すると、「作成」ダイアログで選択したスペースで、そのページが他のページの子になります。親ページは、ページ作成時にいる場所によって異なります。

  • ダッシュボードにいる。
  • スペースの「ページ」ビューにいる。
  • ブログ投稿を閲覧している。
  • スペースでページを閲覧しており、別のスペースに新しいページを追加することを選択した。

The space sidebar in the default theme has useful links to your pages, blog posts, and other parts of the space. For more about the sidebar and the location of pages, see Finding Content.

Using an undefined link to create a page later

You may want to insert a link pointing to a Confluence page that does not yet exist, but which you intend to create later. This type of link is called an undefined link.

To add an undefined link for later creation of a page:

  1. Edit the page in which the link should appear.
  2. Type '[' to trigger autocomplete, and type the name of the undefined page. Alternatively, type the text first, then select the text and type '['.
  3. Choose Insert Link to Create Page.

When you save the page, Confluence colours the undefined link red. When someone clicks the link, the new page opens in edit mode. That person can then enter the page name, add content and save the page, as usual.

Other ways to create a page

You can display a button on a page, which offers people the option of creating a page based on a given template. See Create from Template Macro.

You can import content from other Confluence sites, other wikis, Microsoft Word, and HTML pages. See Importing Content Into Confluence.

The Confluence APIs allow programmatic and scripted creation of pages. See our developer documentation.
