Before you begin

To manage Jira space automations, you must have the appropriate space permissions:

To manage global automations, you’ll need the Administer Jira permission. Learn more about global permissions in Jira Cloud.

Integrate your automation flow with Confluence Cloud

  1. Go to Automation and select Create flow.

  2. Select a trigger for your flow.

  3. Select the Create Confluence page action. This will prompt you to connect Confluence to Atlassian Automation. Learn more about connections

Note that you’ll only be able to configure your flow to create pages in Confluence spaces where you have permission to add pages.
