Regarding of markdown on cloud

[Hyunmin Kim]

I have 3 question regarding of markdown in confluence on cloud

1. Support for code block

In some markdown, there is a grammar for code block.

For example, I can use the back-tic like this.

```bash

$ echo "Hello Wokld"

```

Can I use this in confluence on Cloud?

2. Support for table grammar of markdown

Like in below, I can insert the table on markdown.

| | | | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | | | | |

Can I use this in confluence on Cloud?

3. Exporting to markdown

I would like exporting to markdown with confluence contents.

How can I export this? Is there any method for exporting?

P.S Please recommend any apps or plugin for these!

Hi,

you can insert Markdown on a Confluence page, but it's not possible to edit the content with it.

To insert markdown in the editor:

1. Choose Insert > Markup
2. Select Markdown
3. Type or paste your text - the preview will show you how it will appear on your page
4. Choose Insert.

Confluence will convert your markdown to the rich text editor format. You will not be able to edit your content using markdown.

There are also third-party apps for all things Markdown in Confluence: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=confluence&query=markdown.

Hope this helps.
