Confluence events

Forge apps can subscribe to Confluence events for:

Your Forge app must have permission from the site admin to access the data it provides within the event payload. The OAuth scope required for each event is documented below.

Pages, live docs, and blog posts

Forge apps can subscribe to these page, live doc, blog post, and task events:

  • Pages and live docs
    • Liked: avi:confluence:liked:page
    • Viewed: avi:confluence:viewed:page
    • Archived: avi:confluence:archived:page
    • Unarchived: avi:confluence:unarchived:page
    • Moved: avi:confluence:moved:page
    • Copied: avi:confluence:copied:page
    • Children reordered: avi:confluence:children_reordered:page
    • Permissions updated: avi:confluence:permissions_updated:page
    • Trashed: avi:confluence:trashed:page
    • Restored: avi:confluence:restored:page
  • Pages
    • Created: avi:confluence:created:page
    • Updated: avi:confluence:updated:page
  • Live docs
    • Created: avi:confluence:initialized:page
    • End of first edit session: avi:confluence:started:page
    • End of subsequent editing sessions: avi:confluence:snapshotted:page
    • Converted to page: avi:confluence:published:page
  • Blog posts
    • Created: avi:confluence:created:blogpost
    • Updated: avi:confluence:updated:blogpost
    • Liked: avi:confluence:liked:blogpost
    • Viewed: avi:confluence:viewed:blogpost
    • Permissions updated: avi:confluence:permissions_updated:blogpost
    • Trashed: avi:confluence:trashed:blogpost
    • Restored: avi:confluence:restored:blogpost
  • Tasks
    • Created: avi:confluence:created:task
    • Updated: avi:confluence:updated:task
    • Removed: avi:confluence:removed:task

Page, live doc, and blog post events require the OAuth scope read:confluence-content.summary.

Trashed events, in addition to the above, require the OAuth scope write:confluence-content. This requirement may be removed in the future.

Task events require the OAuth scope read:confluence-content.all.

Events such as avi:confluence:moved:page which apply to both pages and live docs will have a subType="live" field added in their payload if emitted by a live doc.

Page, live doc, blog post, and task events share the same payload format, with the exception of some events that have additional fields (see below).

Payload

NameTypeDescription
eventTypestringThe event name such as avi:confluence:created:page.

Custom content

Forge apps can subscribe to the following custom content events:

  • Created: avi:confluence:created:custom_content
  • Updated: avi:confluence:updated:custom_content
  • Permissions updated: avi:confluence:permissions_updated:custom_content
  • Trashed: avi:confluence:trashed:custom_content
  • Restored: avi:confluence:restored:custom_content

Custom content events are triggered when an action is performed on a Connect or Forge custom content.

Custom content events require the OAuth scope read:confluence-content.summary and share the same payload format.

Payload

NameTypeDescription
eventTypestringThe event name such as avi:confluence:created:custom_content.

Labels

Forge apps can subscribe to the following label events:

  • Created: avi:confluence:created:label
  • Added: avi:confluence:added:label
  • Removed: avi:confluence:removed:label
  • Deleted: avi:confluence:deleted:label

Label events are triggered when a label is created, added to an entity, removed from an entity, or deleted. A label can be associated with one of the following entities: content (such as a page, blog post, database, etc.), space, or page template. Only one of the fields (content, space, or template) will be present in the event payload, depending on the entity the label is associated with.

Label events require the following OAuth scopes:

  • read:confluence-content.summary
  • read:confluence-space.summary

Payload

NameTypeDescription
eventTypestringThe event name such as avi:confluence:added:label.
atlassianIdstringThe ID of the user that caused the event. Absent if the event was triggered by an anonymous user.
labelLabelThe label object.
contentContent(Optional) The content the label is associated with.
spaceSpace(Optional) The space the label is associated with.
templateTemplate(Optional) The template the label is associated with.
