Getting Started

Welcome to Markdown Exporter for Confluence — a Forge-native app that lets you export any Confluence page, page tree, or space to clean, portable Markdown files.

What You Can Do

  • Export any single page, page tree, or full space to Markdown
  • Download results as a structured ZIP archive or a single merged .md file
  • Include attachments alongside your exported pages
  • Add customizable YAML front matter to every file
  • Use Obsidian wikilinks format for direct vault compatibility
  • Define custom filename patterns with {title}, {date}, and {id} tokens
  • Preview any page's markdown before downloading

Accessing the Exporter

There are two ways to open the exporter:

From a Specific Page

  1. Navigate to the Confluence page you want to export
  2. Click the ••• (More actions) menu in the top-right corner
  3. Select Export to Markdown

The exporter opens pre-scoped to that page, with its entire child tree ready to browse.

From Global Access

  1. Click Apps in the Confluence top navigation
  2. Select Markdown Exporter

This opens the full exporter where you can choose any space and parent page to export from.
