Frequently Asked Questions

How does Durable handle Confluence content formatting?

Durable supports Confluence's storage format (XHTML) and provides helpers for common formatting like headers, lists, tables, and links. We handle format conversion and validation to ensure content renders correctly.

Can I migrate content from other platforms to Confluence?

Yes. Durable can create Confluence pages from various sources including Markdown files, Google Docs, or structured data, automatically converting formatting to Confluence's native format.

What happens if I exceed Confluence API rate limits?

Durable implements automatic retry logic with exponential backoff and request queuing. We monitor rate limit headers and adjust request timing to stay within Atlassian's limits while maintaining reliability.

How are page permissions managed?

Page permissions inherit from space settings by default. Durable can set space-level permissions during creation and respects existing access controls when creating or updating content.

Can I work with Confluence Cloud and Server?

Yes. Durable supports both Confluence Cloud (via REST API) and Confluence Server/Data Center instances, automatically detecting and using the appropriate API endpoints based on your configuration.

How do I handle large page updates?

Durable handles large content updates efficiently, including attachments and images. For very large pages, we implement chunking and progress tracking to ensure reliable delivery and provide clear error messages if size limits are exceeded.
