I'm using Confluence Cloud that is connected to Slack. When I use /confluence search it is searching the entire Confluence. Is there a way to restrict the search only to the connected/subscribed pages?

Hi @Mike Levin 

 

Each Slack channel can have multiple Confluence Space subscriptions.  If you want to limit the search you could create a new Slack channel and only subscribe to the spaces you want to search on.

You can see which spaces your channel is subscribed to via:

/confluence list

On the 

/confluence search

I do not believe there are any switches to pass it to narrow the scope.

I tried the suggestion with the new channel and subscribing to a single page only, but the search still works the same - searches the entire Confluence instance, all spaces

Hmm.  You are right.  I went to verify that it would only look at the subscribed space, and it is looking into all spaces, even ones I have restricted.  I believe you found a bug.
