Release Notes


13 October 2026

Background exports

  • Large exports are generated on Atlassian's servers in the background, so you can close the page while they run
  • Where to generate: Auto (recommended), This browser, or Server (background)
  • My exports keeps your finished background exports for 7 days; admins set retention and a storage limit under Exports & storage

Scheduled exports

  • Export a space or a page tree every week or every month
  • Each run attaches a dated PDF or ZIP to an archive page, or keeps it in My exports
  • Notify by email: the app @mentions chosen people on the archive page, and Confluence emails them
  • Each schedule keeps one comment thread on its archive page and adds every run's result as a reply, so the page doesn't fill up with comments
  • Run now, pause and resume; failed runs show the reason, and schedules pause after three failures in a row
  • Admins see every schedule on the site

One export at a time

  • Server exports run one at a time per site; others wait in line, showing their place and a Cancel button
  • Clicking Export shows Preparing Export straight away while the app checks the pages and your access, and the button can't be clicked twice
  • Each site can render 10,000 pages a month on the server; browser exports don't count, and admins see this month's usage in settings
  • Sites on an older version see a notice that an update needs new permissions, with a link to Manage apps for admins

REST API

  • Start exports from scripts and CI/CD pipelines with an API token
  • Export a page, page tree or space; attach the file to a page and notify people
  • Safe retries with requestId, rate limits, and a log of recent calls per token
  • Responses are fixed messages and no data leaves Atlassian, so the app stays eligible for Runs on Atlassian

Navigation

  • The exporter and the settings page use a sidebar, and remember the open section in the page address

Fixes

  • Custom emoji keep their image when there's no standard emoji for them
  • Table of contents zone macros are no longer left out
  • Panels keep their background colour
  • Decision items keep their formatting
  • Long code lines without spaces wrap instead of running off the page
  • Embeds without a source show a named "not included" note
  • Focused text fields show a primary-colour border instead of a black outline
  • The exporter no longer opens at a small height on first load

4 October 2026

Drag-and-drop cover designer

  • The Custom cover is now designed on the page itself: drag the title, subtitle, author, date, logo, text, images and lines onto the cover and place them anywhere
  • Move elements by dragging, change their width with the side handles, and nudge them with the arrow keys
  • Snap guides line elements up with the page centre and with each other
  • Style the selected element (size, colour, alignment, bold) and set its exact position
  • Undo and redo, plus Discard changes and Reset to default
  • Choosing the Custom tile opens the designer straight away; an Edit design tile next to it reopens it
  • Covers built with the earlier block builder are converted automatically

Images on the cover

  • Upload up to four images per cover, or drop image files straight onto the page
  • Images are shrunk in the browser before saving, so templates and exports stay light

Usage statistics

  • A new Usage tab on the admin page charts exports and pages per day over 30 days, 90 days or 12 months
  • See which outputs people choose (single PDF, merged PDF, ZIP) and where exports start
  • Only counts are kept — no user or page names

Templates screen

  • Templates are shown as tiles with a thumbnail of each template's opening page

Fixes

  • An empty page — for example an empty parent page — now exports as a PDF instead of an empty ZIP
  • A page that fails to load is retried, then reported by name instead of being left out silently
  • An export never downloads an empty archive

3 October 2026

Templates

  • Styling controls in every template section: headings, body text, links, tables and code blocks
  • Custom cover design and a full-page cover background image
  • Variable autocomplete in template text fields — type { to insert {title}, {date}, {year} or {lastEditedBy}
  • Variables on the cover page (subtitle and author)
  • Header and footer can be shown on the table of contents page
  • New {lastEditedBy} variable

Export

  • One merged PDF: export a page tree as a single document with one table of contents and continuous page numbers
  • Links between exported pages jump to the right place inside a merged PDF
  • Same-page heading links resolve correctly
  • Code blocks are syntax highlighted, with a title or language label
  • Tables keep rows that are taller than a page and use Confluence column widths
  • Images keep their authored or natural size
  • Task lists render as checkboxes, emoticons print as emoji, and embeds leave a linked note instead of vanishing

28 August 2026

  • Export a single page from the Export to PDF link under the page title, with a live preview of the PDF
  • Header and footer images
  • Coloured text keeps its colour in the PDF

June 2026
