In On many occasions when using JIRA and Confluence together, teams will often refer to the same documents\attachments, which can end up generating duplicated content.  Content

Content such as screenshots, customer requirement documentation, or third-party contracts.

Comala Share It allows Confluence users to create a unique link for attachments that will always point to the latest version of the document or file. This link can then be used to share attachments between your Confluence and JIRA instances.

Step-by-step guide

1. Create a

public link for your Confluence

...

attachment

  • go to your list of attachments (see below)

...

  • click on the Share It icon (Share column) to get your link
