Step 1. On the top panel in FlowFast, click the "Add" - "Import" button

Next, select the import source «Confluence»

Step 2. Authorization is required. Via API Token or via Password.

Authorization via API Token

To do this, we need a domain, email and a token.

  • The domain is the address of your Jira. For example domain.atlassian.net It can be found when you are in Jira, from the search bar.

  • The email address you need to enter is the one associated with your Jira accounts.

  • An authorization token must be generated from the link. Follow the link and click «Create API token».

Come up with a name for the token, it can be anything, you do not need to enter it anywhere.

Copy the generated token and paste it into the appropriate field in FlowFast.

Click «Next».

Step 3: Select Confluence Spaces to Import

Each selected space will have its own folder in the Documents section.

If you do not want to transfer some data, you can remove it from the import by clicking on the cross next to the name.

The nested document structure of the Confluence space will be preserved. Documents from Confluence are imported into the «Documents» section of FlowFast.

If the Confluence page has internal pages, a document will be created for such a page, as well as a folder of the same name containing all internal pages.

Step 4: Select a folder in the FlowFast Documents section where your Confluence Spaces will be imported

You can first create folders in FlowFast to import data from Confluence.

To do this, click on the plus sign next to the «Documents» section in the left sidebar - «Add Folder». Name this folder whatever you like.

When importing, you can select this folder to transfer your data from Confluence to.

Step 5. Click «Next». Done! The import process has started.

As soon as it is completed, FlowFast will send you an email notification. The import usually takes a few minutes*.

Due to FlowFast increased workload, imports may take a little longer than usual. We do our best to import boards and tasks as quickly as possible.

Upon the completion of the process, your documents from Confluence will be transferred to the «Documents» section in FlowFast:

  • to the appropriate folder that you specified;

  • or to the root folder if you didn't specify a specific location.
