Navigating within a space

Use the space sidebar to navigate within a space. The space sidebar appears to the left of the page you’re viewing. It has three parts, each specific to the space you’re in.

The name of the space appears at the top of the space sidebar, followed by links to the space overview, blog, and space settings, plus dashboards for any apps you have installed.

Below these items, you’ll find your space shortcuts. These are links to important pages or websites that people who use the space need to be able to find easily. You can add shortcuts to pages in the space, in other spaces, or even on external websites.

Finally, there’s the content in the space. Pages are organized and displayed hierarchically in the page tree. To see the children of any page in the space, tap > next to the page name. Confluence automatically displays the children of the page you’re viewing.

Using search

Wherever your travels take you in Confluence , you can always find what you need. Use the search bar in the upper right to look for pages, blog posts, spaces, and even people. Results will begin to show up as soon as you start typing.

Exploring your Home dashboard

Home makes it easy to explore your recent spaces and pages and stay updated on what’s happening in your organization. To the right of your dashboard, you’ll find site-wide announcements, calendars, and your site’s activity feed.

The activity feed is a treasure trove of recent and popular content across your site. These are pages and blog posts that other people in your company have liked or commented on. These updates can help you keep tabs on what’s going on across your company and gauge how your company culture is doing.
