Publishing for Confluence is a standalone app that gives teams control over the content lifecycle. It allows you to create drafts, manage staging, and publish finalized content into Confluence spaces, ensuring that only polished, high-quality information goes live.

Draft privately before sharing content more widely.
‍Stage content so you can prepare it in one space and publish it to another.
‍Publish confidently knowing only finished content is released.
‍Republish updates with version tracking, keeping a history of changes.
‍Control visibility between draft and published content.

As a standalone app, Publishing for Confluence does not integrate directly with Approval for Confluence. However, Publishing is included within Approval for Confluence and also as part of the Capable for Confluence suite, so customers of those products can benefit from both review and publishing workflows together.

Knowledge teams that need to keep draft work private until it’s ready.
‍IT and service management teams producing formal documentation and SOPs.
‍Compliance-heavy organizations that require structured publishing flows.
‍Marketing and HR teams preparing content that must be reviewed before going live.

You create a draft page in a staging space. When ready, you use Publishing to push it live to a target space or update an existing published version. This clean separation ensures readers only see content once it’s finalized, while editors retain flexibility.

Publishing for Confluence is available as:
‍
A standalone app, for teams that just need publishing features.
‍
‍Included in Approval for Confluence, for teams that need both approvals and publishing.
‍
‍Included in Capable for Confluence, the all-in-one suite that bundles approvals, publishing, diagrams, calendars, macros, search, and more.
