Update an image everywhere it is used in Confluence
To update an image everywhere it is used in Confluence, open it in the Capable Images library and upload a new version. Every page that shows it with the Image reference macro, or as a library reference in a Markdown document, picks up the new file automatically. Check Used on Pages first to see which pages that will be.
#Before you start
You need permission to upload to the library the image lives in.
Only references follow the library. Images inserted as plain copies, and images picked inside Formatting macros, keep the old file.
#Steps
Open Capable Images and find the image in its library or folder.
Open the image.
Look at Used on Pages to see which pages reference it.
Click Upload (tooltip Upload new version) and pick the replacement file.
Open one of the listed pages to check the new version shows.
#If it does not work
A page still shows the old image. That page has a plain copy, not a reference. Replace it with the Image reference macro so it follows future updates.
A page I know uses it is not listed. Used on Pages only counts reference macros, shows at most 25 pages, and can lag behind a very recent edit.
Do not delete the old image to replace it. Every reference to a deleted image shows This image could not be found. Upload a new version instead.

Change it once. Every page keeps up.
