Choose a space key

Each Confluence space has a space key, which is a short, unique identifier that forms part of the URL for that space.

When you create a space, a unique space key will be automatically generated for you based on the space name, but you can choose to change it.

Add your space key when creating a team space.

If you decide to customize your space key, remember that each space key:

  • Must be unique.

  • Can contain any alphanumeric character (a-z, 0-9).

  • Can be up to 255 characters long.

You can't change the space key after you create your space, so choose your space key carefully!
