How can I get notified when Atlassian updates Confluence Cloud?

Michael Faux November 15, 2016

I'd like to know when Atlassian updates Confluence Cloud, and what changes were made in the update. Is there a system in place for this? A newsletter, blog post, etc.?

This would help me be aware of new features, bug fixes, and to determine if the update is a possible cause for unexpected behavior / bugs.

Thanks,

You could "watch" the What's New page here:

Thank you. That's a start, though it's not updated with the frequency that Atlassian pushes changes to Cloud. For instance, I'm noticing a new bug(s) every few days or so.

Tell me about it ...! New version 1000.534.0 is due out soon (no ETA yet) to fix the page tree macro and broken logo issues.

All the pages of your instance should contain something like this:

<meta name="ajs-version-number" content="1000.518.1">

You can parse any Confluence page to check the version. We use Zabbix with some Linux magic to parse Confluence page and check if the version changed or not. Then Zabbix sends a notification if the version changed.
