Slack integration to replace Hipchat?

[Michael Tegler]

Is there any plan to change the "Hipchat Integration" option in Confluence to Slack or Microsoft Teams? I know there are paid add-ons, but this can be a pain to squeeze through a corporate budget.

In case anyone else is looking. This was released recently:

+1 - given the HipChat decom notice, when can we expect #slack integration in its place in the native confluence integrations page? Thanks

Hi, Michael.

As of now the integration between Slack and Confluence (Server and Cloud) are available through paid third party add-ons below, just to name a few:

• jSoftware
  • Slack Connector for Confluence Server
  • Slack Connector for Confluence Cloud
• codefortynine GmBh
  • Slack for Confluence

I believe that the native integration will take a while to be developed, hence no official news / public facing ticket to keep track of the progress.

Hi, Michael.

According to the What Atlassian integrations are available with Slack today?, we can see that we currently have the integration ready for JIRA Cloud, Trello, and Bitbucket Cloud only.

Today, there are Atlassian built and supported integrations with Slack for Jira Cloud, Trello and Bitbucket Cloud. Building on the success of these existing integrations, we will co-develop tighter native integrations between our products.

I can definitely understand the concern that you have on your end but just to let you know that we are definitely looking at extending the scope of integration for Confluence in the future as it is an important component to team collaboration.
