How do I insert a White Board on my main page?

Question

My company uses Confluence version 8.5 and I access it through a link on my Google favorites bar.

I've set up a page for my team - and I cannot figure out how to add a White Board to that page.

The best I've been able to do is set up a second page called Team Notes, but I'd much rather have it on the main page.

The preference is to only have 1 page.

Any help you can provide will be appreciated.

Thanks

Susan

@Barbara Szczesniak Good day, and thank you for your answer. It clarified the problem. I am using whatever my company uses, so I have no idea of we are using a Cloud plan or not, and I suspect we are not. When I look at the insert options available to me, Whiteboard is not one of them. The only tool I'm using is the Confluence Data Center. For the time being - I just added another page called Team Notes and that will have to do for now.

I'm a complete newbie here - so I'm just glad I got my teams page up and running.

Adding other stuff, like blogs, graphs, charts, etc. will come later.

@Susan Mintzer Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

The tags on your post indicate that you are using Confluence Data Center. The Whiteboards feature is only available in Cloud plans. According to this ticket (CONFSERVER-83249), there are no plans to add it to Data Center.

If you are using some other tool to make a Whiteboard and want to insert it in your page, please let us know what tool you are using, and someone in the community who is familiar with Data Center should be able to assist you.
