Import to whiteboards
Navigate to the whiteboard where you wish to import the image or PDF. You can use an existing whiteboard or start a new one.
You can import your content in two ways:
Drag your image or file into your whiteboard.
On the toolbar, select the More menu ( … ), select Whiteboard import, navigate to your file, and select it.
Select your content type.
The import process will complete.
When should I recreate my content in Confluence whiteboards vs. uploading a static image?
For projects that are still in progress and continue to be iterated on, we recommend importing as an image and recreating the areas that require additional editing and changes.
For projects that are completed, but may need to be referenced in the future, we recommend importing as an image. The content will then live in Confluence whiteboards as the new source of record.
Limitations
Some limitations and differences between your external tools and Confluence whiteboard will occur.
Importing comments from other tools is not supported, but you can comment on Confluence whiteboards.
Colors will be mapped to the closest Confluence whiteboards colors.
Connectors will not import, but they can be recreated in Confluence whiteboards.
Rotated elements will import unrotated.
Shapes supported in whiteboards will import as shapes. Shapes that are not supported will import as images.
Locked elements will not remain locked when imported, but you can manually lock them in Confluence whiteboards.
Talk tracks are not supported in whiteboards.
Whiteboards have a 10,000-element limit.
Importing may take longer than a minute for boards with many elements, large images, or a lot of content.
