Connect your Atlassian Confluence Cloud account to Adapt using an API token with Basic authentication.

Set up credentials

1

Open the Atlassian API token page

Sign in to your Atlassian account, then go to https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens.
2

Create an API token

Click Create API token, give it a descriptive name, set an expiration date, then click Create.
3

Copy the token

Click Copy to clipboard and store the token somewhere safe. Atlassian shows it only once.

Security

  • Credentials are encrypted at rest with AES-256
  • The token inherits your Confluence permissions, so it can access only the spaces and pages you can see
  • Set an expiration date and revoke tokens anytime from your Atlassian account API token page
  • Do not share or commit your API token

​
Capabilities

Adapt can search and read your Confluence Cloud site to find spaces, pages, and documentation. Use it to locate knowledge, summarize pages, and answer questions from your docs.
