About editing files

You can edit spreadsheets on pages without downloading to edit and re-uploading multiple copies or locking other people out while editing the document.

Editing an Excel Spreadsheet

You can edit Spreadsheets attached to your pages by clicking the “Edit” button (also available in the full-screen preview).

A new tab opens, and you can edit your document in a few seconds.

Real-time collaboration

As mentioned before, Excel for Confluence support real-time collaboration, and it's effortless to use.

Start editing a Spreadsheet attached to a page. When another person clicks to edit the same file, the editor seamlessly creates a collaboration session. You can continue to edit the file as before and leave it anytime by closing the browser tab.

Supported file formats for edit

• Excel and OpenOffice Spreadsheets

Permissions

To be able to edit attachments, please check if you have the correct permissions defined on Confluence. You’ll need to be able to edit the page.

Wrap up 

That's all for editing files attached to your pages.
