Display beautiful, dynamic content on your page with Cards
This feature is in beta and only offered with Confluence Cloud Premium and Enterprise.
Cards allow you to organize and display interactive content on your page. They’re ideal for for highlighting key information in a visually appealing way, or presenting a collection of related items.
Cards can transform Confluence, Jira, and Atlas links or external URLs into dynamic, clickable page elements. You can add as many cards as you’d like to a page, and customize them in a variety of ways.
To add cards to your page:
Select (+) from the toolbar, then find Cards. Or, type /cards from the body of your page.
Upon selection, a group of three cards will appear on your page.
During customization, you can create or delete as many cards as you’d like.
To customize and configure your cards:
Select the frame around the cards that you want to configure, then select the Edit () icon to open the configuration panel.
Select a card to expand its configuration options.
Customize your cards using the configuration options available. Cards can be generated from Confluence pages or Jira issues, for instance, or external URLs.
Be aware: Content displayed on your cards that comes directly from the links you’ve selected could be visible to anyone with access to your page, even if they don’t have access to the link itself.
To rearrange cards:
Select the “handle” on the left side of a card
Select Move up or Move down. (Or you can drag-and-drop the cards in the panel).
Configuration
You can customize exactly how your cards appear on the page with the following options:
