Converts Docusaurus links to platform-specific URLs:
./sibling.md→https://domain.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SPACE/pages/ID/Title../parent.md→ Platform URL with proper hierarchy/docs/absolute-path→ Resolved absolute paths./file.md#section→ Anchor links preserved
Sync markdown files directly to specific Confluence pages:
# CLI flag method
docflu sync --file docs/my-doc.md --target 123456
docflu sync --file docs/my-doc.md --target "https://domain.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DOC/pages/123456/Page+Title"---
title: My Document
confluence_target: 123456

# My Document
Content will sync to page ID 123456.Supported URL formats:
- Page ID:
123456 - Modern URL:
https://domain.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DOC/pages/123456/Page+Title - Legacy URL:
https://domain.atlassian.net/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=123456 - Display URL:
https://domain.atlassian.net/display/DOC/Page+Title?pageId=123456
Automatically converts diagrams to high-quality SVG images:
Mermaid (flowcharts, sequence, class, state, ER, journey, gantt)
graph TD
A[Start] --> B{Decision}
B -->|Yes| C[Action]
B -->|No| D[End]
PlantUML (UML diagrams, architecture, sequence)
@startuml
Alice -> Bob: Hello
Bob -> Alice: Hi there
@endumlGraphviz/DOT (directed graphs, network diagrams)
digraph G {
A -> B -> C;
A -> C;
}D2 (modern declarative diagrams)
server -> database: query
database -> server: result- Local images: Uploaded as Confluence attachments
