Before registering an external web application's gadget with Confluence, you will need to obtain that gadget's URL and copy it to your computer's clipboard.

Registering an External Gadget for Use in Confluence

To register an external web application's gadget for use in Confluence:

  1. Choose Browse > Confluence Admin.
  2. Click External Gadgets under 'Configuration' in the left panel. The 'External Gadgets' page is displayed.
  3. In the 'Add a new Gadget' section, paste your gadget's URL into the Gadget Specification URL field.
  4. Click Add. Your gadget will be shown in the list of registered gadgets below and it will also become available in the macro browser.

Do I need to establish an OAuth or Trusted Application relationship too?


In addition to registering an external gadget for use in Confluence, you may also need to establish an OAuth or Trusted Application relationship between the application that serves the gadget (the service provider) and Confluence (the consumer). OAuth and Trusted Application relationships are usually only required for gadgets that access user-restricted data from the external web application. Refer to Configuring OAuth for further information.

If an external web application provides anonymous access to all or some of its data and that is the only data you need to access, then establishing an OAuth or Trusted Applications relationship may be unnecessary.

  2. Click External Gadgets under 'Configuration' in the left panel. The 'External Gadgets' page is displayed.
