Publishing FastDoc Generated Documents to Confluence Spaces

Introduction

In this article, we will guide you through the process of publishing FastDoc (FD) generated documents to a Confluence space. This feature allows users to share their documents with a broader audience, ensuring that important information is easily accessible. Whether you are publishing immediately after document generation or at a later time, this guide will help you navigate the process smoothly.

Detailed Explanation

Publishing documents to Confluence is a straightforward process that involves selecting the appropriate Confluence space where you have write permissions. FastDoc ensures that you can only publish one document at a time, preventing any accidental overwrites. Once a document is published, it cannot be republished, which helps maintain the integrity of your content. Additionally, users will receive confirmation messages and warnings when necessary, ensuring clarity throughout the process.

Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to publish your FastDoc generated document to a Confluence space:

1. Generate Your Document: Start by creating your document in FastDoc.

2. Select the Document: Navigate to the document list and select the document you wish to publish.

3. Choose the Publish Option: Click on the publish icon or select the publish option from the action menu (the ‘…’ menu).

4. Select Confluence Space: A list of available Confluence spaces will appear. Choose the space where you have write permissions.

5. Confirm Your Selection: After selecting the space, you will receive a confirmation message. Review the message to ensure you are publishing to the correct space.

6. Handle Overwrites: If you are regenerating and overwriting an existing document, a warning message will prompt you to confirm this action. Choose ‘OK’ to proceed or ‘Cancel’ to stop.

7. Publish the Document: Once confirmed, the document will be published to the selected Confluence space.
