How to connect Google docs and Confluence
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google docs and Confluence
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google docs, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google docs or Confluence will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google docs or Confluence, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google docs, Confluence, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google docs and Confluence integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google docs and Confluence (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google docs and Confluence
Google Docs + Confluence + Slack: When a new document is created in Google Docs, its content is summarized and posted as a new page in Confluence. A Slack message then notifies a specified channel about the new Confluence page.
Confluence + Google Sheets + Google Docs: When a Confluence page is updated, track this update by adding a new row to a Google Sheet. Then, use the data in the Google Sheet to generate a summary report in a Google Docs document.
