Create and insert
There are more ways in than most people realise, and picking the right one saves redrawing something you already have.
#Which route
You have | Use |
|---|---|
Nothing yet, you want to draw | Insert a diagram and pick an editor. |
A Visio file | Import from Visio. It arrives editable, not as a picture. |
A diagram file on a URL or attached to the page | Diagrams from a URL or attachment. |
Diagrams already on other Confluence pages | Import diagrams from a page. |
A shape you keep redrawing | Diagram templates. |
