# Confluence

> Automate incident retrospectives with Confluence integration, featuring customizable templates, Liquid variable support, and automated page creation.

## Overview

Rootly's Confluence integration automates the creation of retrospective pages after incidents. When an incident resolves or a retrospective is started, Rootly creates a new Confluence page in your specified space and populates it with incident data — including the timeline, affected services, teams involved, and follow-up action items.

Both **Confluence Cloud** (OAuth) and **Confluence Server / Data Center** (Basic auth or Personal Access Token) are supported.

## Template Options

You have two approaches for retrospective content:

* **Rootly templates** — Use pre-built retrospective templates defined in Rootly. These automatically include timeline visualization and follow-up action item tracking with no additional setup.
* **Confluence templates** — Build fully custom templates directly in Confluence using Liquid variables for dynamic content. Rootly fetches templates from your Confluence space via the API and applies them when creating pages.

  If a Confluence template is selected in the workflow action, it overrides both the Custom Retrospective Template and the Rootly Retrospective Template fields.
