Atlassian ends support for the data source connections for external data sources in Confluence 8.0. It recommends switching to a direct JDBC connection from the existing JNDI data source connections. For more information, refer to Configuring a data source connection.

The upcoming release version will be is SQL for Confluence 11.x, and it will work seamlessly with Confluence 7.x (Confluence 7.4 to Confluence 7.20) versions, including support for external data sources.

To resolve this, you need to convert the global data source profile to a local connection string profile.

To convert the global profiles to local profiles, you have the below options:

1. Create a new profile with the Data source name as None, and provide the connection details.

2. Edit the configured global data source profile, change the Data source name to None and provide the connection details.

3. Create a new local profile and choose the created local profile as the Data source name in the configured global data source profiles.

Our team is working on these changes and will soon release the tutorial.
