• You have all the certificates you need to log into the site if your Confluence instance is in a secure connection (HTTPS)

Windows or Linux

The Aspire Confluence connector can run on either Windows or Linux. It uses web services over HTTP or HTTPS to communicate with Confluence.

Confluence web services used are:

• Confluence Remote API V2 for Confluence 5+

These services should be started and running automatically if Confluence is up and running. These are required for the Aspire Confluence Connector to successfully connect with the Confluence docbase that you want to index.
