titleFeature Retirement: frevvo for Confluence

Atlassian is dropping support for Confluence Server in 2024 and encouraging customers to migrate to Confluence Cloud. The frevvo plug-in is not compatible with Confluence Cloud. Existing frevvo for Confluence licenses will be supported, but frevvo for Confluence will not be available for new customers.

Please see the frevvo for Confluence page for details about this announcement and recommendations.

Note

Make sure that you have read and understood the section on using frevvoresolve macros.

View the Merge to Confluence Page video for more information if you are using Confluence v4.0 - v4.2. The way of adding and parsing templates has been changed in Confluence v4.3 and v5.1. Refer to this documentation for information about templates in these versions.

Using frevvo for Confluence, you can create forms/workflows that store the form data in one or more Confluence pages. Every time the form/workflow is submitted, the data is merged into an existing Confluence page. If the desired page does not exist, it will be created using a Confluence template.

For example, assume that you want to use a form to collect registrations for an event. We'll create a Confluence page with an embedded form and a result Confluence page in which we'll collect the list of registered users. The result page stores a table with a row for each registered user.
