We are able to use draw.io with Confluence successfully. However, we would like to add a lot of custom icons to the available icons in draw.io. We would like all users of the Confluence cloud tenant to have a consistent set of our corporate icons. What is the best way to do this ?
Thanks for your question! The best way to achieve this in draw.io is by creating a custom shape library and making it accessible to all users.
Here's how you can do it:
1. Convert your icons to SVG format (my personal favorite for best quality) or PNG/JPEG
2. Open draw.io within Confluence
3. Click on File > New Library > Device (this creates a new library)
4. Name your library and drag and drop your custom icons
5. Click save when you're ready and your library should now appear in the Shapes panel on the left.
You can drag and drop additional shapes from your diagram into the custom library or import icons directly from your computer. Now let's help you share with your team. They can access your custom library by:
1. Save the library file to a shared location where team members have access i.e. Google Drive. They can then import the library by clicking File > Import Library and navigating to the saved file.
or
2. If you want the icons to always be available to users without needing to import them manually, you can configure draw.io to load them via a publicly accessible URL.
