Confluence
Using Onna with Confluence
Collect, process, preserve and search across your Confluence site and spaces in real-time
Most development teams use Confluence as an internal wiki or intranet, so it’s often a relevant source of discoverable data, especially when the case involves IP. However, at this time, Confluence doesn’t offer a workflow for eDiscovery or legal hold.
By integrating directly with Confluence’s API, Onna collects all data and metadata from an entire Confluence site or individual spaces in their native format for both Confluence on the web and on-premise, making Onna the most comprehensive eDiscovery collection tool for Confluence.
Onna ensures you collect and preserve all available data and metadata, including comments, attachments, and historical information, in a defensible and scalable way. Audit logs of all collections and processing activity are included for defensibility.
All collected data, including images, audio and video files, is processed, indexed, and OCR’d instantaneously, rendering a fully searchable environment of your entire Confluence site and/or individual spaces. Relevant data can be exported and uploaded to your existing eDiscovery workflows and review platforms for a seamless experience.

Confluence on the Web Integration Features

What is collected?
Onna connects directly with the API to collect all information in native format. The integration collects all data and metadata from an entire Confluence site or individual spaces.
All files are synced, including, but not limited to:
- HTML content of the page
- Comments on pages
- Attachments for the page
- Labels for attachments and pages
- Ancestors for the page/attachments
- Historical information and related metadata, including:
- Author of the page
- Created by/on
- Last updated by/on
- Previous Version created by/on
What are your sync modes?
We currently support three syncing modes – one-time, auto sync and archive, and auto.
- One-time sync collects data during a certain time range or up until the date the source was added. This is great for one-time eDiscovery collections.
- Auto sync and archive means that Onna will perform a full sync first and will continuously add any new files generated at the data source. The sync type does not delete files deleted or edited from Confluence, ensuring you always maintain a preserved and archived copy of your Confluence data.
- Auto-sync means that Onna will perform a full sync first and will keep the data source and Onna in mirrored sync. Any deletions from the data source will be deleted in Onna, as well.*
The synchronization scope currently encompasses entire Confluence sites and specific Confluence spaces and/or pages.
*This sync mode is only supported for Confluence pages and files attached to a space.
