How to send an email attachment to a Confluence page
One workflow I wish that Confluence supported natively was the ability to send an email to a confluence page and then attach the files in that email to the page. After doing some research, I wasn’t able to find a solution that was simple and extensible, so I built one with Zapier.
Automate using Zapier
Zapier has a number of popular apps that they offer at the free tier and several apps provided by Zapier
Zapier has a native app that provides an email gateway. This app is called Email by Zapier
and provides a unique email address to send to and integrate with other applications. Though Zapier does have Confluence app, this app only supports one action, to create a page or blog post.
Digging through Confluence Cloud’s api, there is an endpoint that allows you to attach documents to a page.
