Import into a Confluence Page External Web Content

[RanMan]

Hi

Is there any way of importing External WebContent into Confluence at all?

I was looking into the iframes, but that method is not good for me as I am expecting confluence itself pulling the external content rather than my browser?

I have been checking for hours but I have not found anything conclusive yet....

Any ideas/help/tips?

Many thanks

Thanks very much for your help!

In the end I have used the API REST with python so I have scripted the way of updating the page every now and then, and it seems to work perfectly fine

Thanks again!

Hi there,

There are a few ways to achieve that.

Importing web content

Here are some options for importing or displaying web content on a Confluence page:

• Use the Widget Connector Macro to display videos, slide shows, twitter chats, documents and more, sourced from other web sites and displayed on your Confluence page.

• Convert a HTML file to a Confluence page using the HTML To Confluence Converter plugin.
• Embed an external web page into Confluence with the HTML Include macro.
• Use HTML code in a page with the HTML macro.

You can also refer to this documentation here for the content import :)

Hope these help.
