Embed GitHub Files Like Never Before

Your developers live in GitHub. Your documentation lives in Confluence. Why do they have to be strangers?

The new Git macro integration lets you embed and manage GitHub files directly within your Confluence pages. Browse repositories, select files, and boom—they're right there in your docs with full syntax highlighting and markdown rendering. Search across your embedded files. Link multiple GitHub accounts. Even migrate from GitHub Macros for Confluence (Appfire) and bring all your existing embeds with you.

For development teams, this is a game-changer: Keep your source code and documentation in perfect sync without leaving Confluence. Your team stays focused. Your documentation stays fresh.

Security Meets Practicality with Approval Auth

Approvals are important. They deserve more than a click.

Approval Authentication Tokens add a powerful security layer without the friction. Space administrators can now require authentication tokens when users respond to approval requests - think Google Authenticator, or any standard TOTP mobile authenticator.

Here's what that means: When someone approves a sensitive workflow, they don't just click a button. They enter a verification code from their authenticator app. It's an extra layer of security that actually works in the real world, and it ensures that approval responses come from authorized users, not someone who grabbed their laptop for two seconds.

Control Your Workspace Like a Pro

Every organization is different. Your Confluence setup shouldn't pretend otherwise.

With Global and Space-Level Capability Control, administrators get fine-grained power:

• Hide capabilities globally across your entire Confluence instance to disable features you don't need
• Disable specific capabilities within individual spaces for surgical precision
• Simplify the interface by removing features you already have solutions for
• Restrict access based on your organizational security and compliance requirements

The result? Users only see what matters for their workflows. No clutter. No confusion. Just the tools they actually use.

Personalize Your Experience

We get it - you want your Capable interface to work for you, not against you.

Capability Reordering lets you customize your Capable interface to match your actual workflow. Drag your most-used features to the top. Bury the ones you rarely touch. Your productivity gets a boost because the tools you reach for most are exactly where you expect them.

Bulk Publishing That Actually Works

Publishing hundreds of pages used to feel like playing roulette. Not anymore.

Robust Bulk Publishing with full job management transforms the experience:

• Enhanced orchestration engine ensures publishing tasks complete reliably every time
• Job management dashboard gives you real-time visibility into bulk operations
• Detailed audit logs track everything for compliance and troubleshooting
• Improved error handling with automatic retry logic for failed tasks

Whether you're publishing 50 pages or 5,000 assets, you can trust that operations will complete successfully. And if something does go wrong, you'll know exactly what happened.

Macro Configuration That Doesn't Hurt

We've all suffered through clunky macro configuration interfaces. They're awkward. They're buried in tabs. They make you want to scream.

The New Macro Configuration Experience changes that. Picture a clean, column-based sidebar layout. Native Confluence styling. Simplified settings that don't bury what matters. Now imagine that across every single Capable macro. That's Capable 2.0.

Diagram Editing Gets Smooth

Remember that jarring white flash when you started typing in a diagram? It's gone.

Smoother Diagram Rendering eliminates the white flash entirely. Now when you edit diagrams, you get real-time, smooth rendering with better visual feedback. It's a small thing that makes everything feel more polished and professional. Editing diagrams in Confluence just became a pleasure instead of an annoyance.

Ask Questions about your diagrams with Capable AI

If you have AI enabled in the app, you now have the ability to ask questions about your diagrams using Capable AI.

This makes it easy to answer questions like: Explain this diagram in simple terms; What step comes after the ‘Review’ stage?; What actions does the BPO have to perform in this process?; or What external dependencies does the server have?

Use Page Content to create diagrams with Capable AI

You can now choose to include the page content in the ‘Generate Diagram’ feature, making it even easier to create diagrams from the page.

Approval Data You Can Trust

Approvals are your source of truth. They need to be solid.

Approval Data Integrity Checking ensures your approval data remains consistent and reliable. Automatic verification runs behind the scenes. Malicious tampering gets caught. You get audit-ready records that comply with regulations and actually mean something.

When your approvals are your source of truth, integrity isn't optional - it's essential. And now you've got it.

Bring All Your Data Over

Switching tools is painful when you leave all your data behind.

Not with Capable.

We've expanded our migration toolset so you can bring your data from the most popular competing apps:

• Mermaid for Confluence (Stratus)
• Approvals for Confluence (AppFox)
• GitHub Macros for Confluence (Appfire)

Save money. Unify your experience. Keep your history. It's migration done right.
