The problem it solves

You write documentation in Google Drive but your team actually looks for answers in Confluence, so pages go stale the moment the source file changes. Keeping both copies updated by hand means someone has to remember to copy and paste every update.

Who it fits

Teams that write internal docs in Google Drive but keep their knowledge base in Confluence.

How it works

  1. A new or updated markdown file appears in a watched Google Drive folder
  2. The system checks it every hour for changes
  3. The file is converted into a formatted Confluence page
  4. If the page already exists, it's updated instead of duplicated
  5. Your Confluence space stays current automatically
What you get

Confluence pages that always match your docs

Your team's Confluence space stays current automatically whenever someone updates a document in Google Drive.

What you get

An up-to-date Confluence page that mirrors the latest version of the Google Drive file.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and a Confluence Cloud account with API access.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
