Diagram Directly in Confluence or Jira

You’ll never have to log into a separate program to create diagrams for your Confluence or Jira instance again—and don’t worry about embedding and updating them, either. Gliffy does all of that for you automatically. Create your diagrams without ever leaving the page, then save and publish just like you would when making any other update.

Create Dynamic Diagrams

Create dynamic diagrams that will allow you to change the display of information to fit your needs and audiences. Expand and collapse different parts of your diagram to show only as much detail as you need, so you can work efficiently by scaling down when necessary.

Stay Connected With Automatic Updates

Place one diagram on multiple Confluence or Jira instances and see every duplicate automatically update, so your team is never referencing old or outdated information.

Search Text Within Diagrams

Use Confluence’s powerful search functionality to find text within diagrams. Your Gliffy diagrams are a natural extension of your Confluence page—not just when it comes to editing, but also when it comes to using them as a resource for your team.

Track and Restore Version History

View changes to Gliffy diagrams or revert to an older version in just a few clicks. When you’re collaborating, especially with large teams, this level of control is crucial to information management.

Collaborate in Real Time

The synchronous capabilities of Confluence extend to your Gliffy diagrams. Create visuals with your team in real time directly in Confluence for faster, more efficient working sessions.
