Getting started [TF CC]

Take the first steps to use the Team Files app for Confluence Cloud.




Open the Team Files app

You can install the Team Files app from the Atlassian Marketplace, then open it by clicking the Team Files link on Confluence’s sidebar. It's ready to use.

Connect your first folder

You don't need to create an account to use the app. The only thing required is to connect at least one folder to the Confluence Space so that you can start collaborating with your team and build your single source of truth.

If a folder is connected when you first open the app, someone in your team has already shared a folder. You can use that one or add more by following the same steps.

 


Step 1: Click the "Connect folder" button


Step 2: Select the storage place where the folder you want to connect is and authenticate

You can connect a folder stored in SharePoint, OneDrive for Business, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, or Egnyte.

You can connect more places later from the file manager. Learn more

The options to connect clouds may differ depending on the app you installed. Example: Dropbox or Google Drive dedicated apps.

Step 3: Navigate to where the folder you want to share with your team is


Step 4: Select the folder you want to connect

Use the checkbox to select the folder you want to connect. 

We recommend connecting a folder where you and your team store your documents, but you can start with a new one by clicking the "New folder" button.


Step 5: Select permissions (optional)

Click the "Permissions" tab. By default, your team can view and edit any folders you connect. If you want to limit access or block the edit feature, click the dropdown to change the permissions.

For more information, check the permissions page.
