Join us to see how Atlassian Intelligence (Rovo) and Confluence Databases can work together to transform the way your teams organize knowledge, track work, and make decisions. We’ll walk through how Rovo agents can sit directly in your workflows to automate routine tasks, power smarter knowledge retrieval, and surface the right database insights at the right time; reducing manual effort and accelerating resolution across Jira, Confluence, and beyond.
Using practical, real-world examples, we’ll cover how to create and structure Confluence Databases, choose and customize field types, link related work, and apply best practices so your data stays useful over time. You’ll leave with concrete patterns, quick wins, and implementation tips to help both technical and non-technical teams centralize information, keep it in sync, and unlock the full potential of Atlassian’s AI ecosystem.
Confluence databases are a fantastic way to store and organize all that important data from your favorite tools like Jira and Confluence. They give you quick access to everything you need. Let’s break down how to set up your pages, import data, take advantage of the unique structure of databases, and use the search feature to find those high-priority projects or filter them by status.
What’s great about Confluence databases is their independent structure. This means you can create and manage them as standalone content within Confluence. They don’t rely on pages to exist, which is super handy. Looking to track down high-priority projects or filter by status? Databases make it easy to sort and filter your information efficiently, so accessing relevant data is a walk in the park.Objectives
