Install Capable Diagrams

Capable Diagrams installs from the Atlassian Marketplace like any other Confluence app. Nothing to host, nothing to configure first.

Capable for Confluence

#Updates and uninstalling

Updates arrive automatically. Uninstalling stops the app working but does not delete your diagrams: the source stays as custom content in your site, so reinstalling brings them back.


#A few things that catch people out

  • You need to be a Confluence administrator to install.

  • Do not run the standalone app and the suite together. Pick one.

  • Existing diagrams from another app do not migrate automatically. See Migrate to Capable Diagrams.



Installed. Now go and draw something.
