As a plugin developer, you can use a Space Blueprint module to add to the Create Space dialog in Confluence to help users bootstrap the space creation process. Note that you need to define a web-item referring to a space-blueprint module for it to appear in the Create Space dialog. This page only documents the space-blueprint module. See Space Blueprints for concepts and tutorials.

Configuration

The root element for the Space Blueprint module is space-blueprint.

Element: `space-blueprint`

Attribute*	Description
`key`	The identifier of the plugin module. This key must be unique within your plugin. Default: None
`i18n-name-key`	A i18n key for the name of this Space Blueprint. Default: None
`category`	A space label to apply to the spaces created via the Space Blueprint. Default: None

Attribute*

Description

key

The identifier of the plugin module. This key must be unique within your plugin.

Default: None

i18n-name-key

A i18n key for the name of this Space Blueprint.

Default: None

category

A space label to apply to the spaces created via the Space Blueprint.

Default: None

*key and i18n-name-key attributes are required

A space-blueprint can optionally contain the following elements:

Element	Description
content-template	The `content-template` element allows you to define the default page structure for spaces created via your space blueprint. The root content-template element becomes the homepage for the space and you can nest them to create a hierarchy. These elements require a ref attribute referring to a `content-template` definition in your plugin.
promoted-blueprints	The `promoted-blueprints` element allows you to define a list of Blueprints to be promoted by default in your space. This means that if a user presses "Create", the "promoted" Blueprints will appear first for that space.
dialog-wizard	This is an optional element which allows you to easily create a dialog wizard for your space.

Example

Example of a Space Blueprint with a single page wizard and default page hierarchy; including a homepage and two child pages.
