The Docs AddOn in Confluence Cloud empowers users to seamlessly integrate HTML, JavaScript, and CSS-based content. Its inception was inspired by the embedding of JavaDocs. However, given that JavaDocs essentially comprise HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, the AddOn's versatility extends beyond this initial concept. This means you can utilize the AddOn to embed a wide range of similar content types, including but not limited to Doxygen, PHPDocs, and more. Whether it's Doxygen, PHPDocs, or other content-sharing technologies, the AddOn offers a flexible solution for integrating various types of content within Confluence Cloud.
Keywords: JavaDoc, Doxygen, PHPDoc, Static WebContent, Technical Documentation

Feature Clips
Automation via REST API
All your Docs are organized as attachments on a Confluence Page basis. So, you can simply use Confluence’s standard REST API to organize attachments to add, delete, or modify your content.
You can find a real example in our Feature Clips above.
Here is a code snippet showing how to use curl to upload a doc to the AddOn:
Code Block |
---|
curl -D- \ -u user:password \ -X PUT \ -H 'X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck' \ -F 'file=@"my-javadoc.jar"' \ -F 'minorEdit="true"' \ -F 'comment="My JavaDoc"; type=application/zip' \ http://myhost/rest/api/content/123/child/attachment |
Here is the link to Confluence Cloud’s REST API documentation for attachment handling:

Docs File Structure
The Docs AddOn requires all content to be packaged in a ZIP archive. By default, the entry page should be called index.html and must be located at the root of the ZIP archive.
Note: The name of the entry page can be adjusted in the AddOn’s configurations.
