How do you create a new page in Confluence?
Key takeaways:
- Create a page from a space by selecting Create, then Page, and start from a blank page or a template.
- Use one of Confluence's 100+ templates to skip the blank-page problem entirely.
- Let Rovo draft a first draft of your page from a prompt, then keep iterating with it to revise.
- Add labels so teammates can find your page later, and publish when you are ready to share it.
To create a new page in Confluence, open the space where you want it to live, then start from a blank page, a template, or a prompt with Rovo. Add a title, format the page, add labels, and publish it when you are ready to share it with your team.
The steps below cover creating a page from scratch, starting from a template, drafting with Rovo, and publishing so the right people can see it.
What is a Confluence page?
A Confluence page is the default content type for structured, long-lived information, like documentation, project plans, or meeting notes. Pages live in a hierarchical tree within a space, so your team can organize related content and find it again later.
Creating with Rovo
When you would rather start from a prompt than a blank page, Rovo can draft one for you. Describe what you need, point it to relevant context, and Rovo turns it into a structured page you can keep refining before you publish.
How to create a Confluence page using Rovo
- Select the Create button at the top of the nav, just like you would to create a page, and select Create with Rovo, the first option.
- Write your prompt describing what you want the page to cover. Add as much context as you can by linking out to other Confluence pages, Loom videos, Jira work items, and third-party links, so Rovo has plenty to draw from.
- Select the arrow button to submit your prompt, then watch Rovo generate the page.
- In the preview screen, keep chatting with Rovo to iterate on the draft, like adding new sections or revising existing ones until
- When you are finally ready, publish it to your space.
The more context you link into your prompt, other pages, Loom videos, Jira work items, external sources, the closer Rovo's first draft will land to what you actually need.
