New: Confluence SpiraApp — Requirements and Documentation, Finally Connected

20-May-2025 by Thea Maisuradze Product News

Inflectra is excited to announce the release of the Confluence SpiraApp, a powerful new integration that transforms how teams connect requirements in SpiraPlan with collaborative content in Atlassian Confluence.

Designed for teams who live in both tools, this SpiraApp streamlines documentation workflows by enabling you to link, launch, and even automatically generate Confluence pages directly from within Spira* — no context-switching, no redundant work, and no broken links.

What Users Get: Practical Value, Delivered Instantly

Work Smarter, Not Harder

With a single click, users can open an existing Confluence page tied to a requirement, or generate a new one — complete with pre-filled metadata and traceable links. This eliminates manual copy-paste routines, reduces human error, and dramatically speeds up documentation cycles.

Always Stay in Sync

Because each Confluence page is linked directly from the requirement via a dedicated custom field, users never lose track of where supporting documentation lives. Whether you’re refining scope, writing user stories, or auditing work, everything is seamlessly connected.

Security and Governance Built In

The SpiraApp uses secure API connections and supports SHA512 hashing, ensuring data integrity, traceability, and compliance for regulated teams.


 

Behind the Simplicity: Smart, Flexible Configuration

Though effortless for end users, the Confluence SpiraApp is highly configurable for administrators:

  • Set up at both system-wide and product-specific levels

  • Customize Confluence spaces, parent pages, and field mappings

  • Securely authenticate with an API token and granular permissions

Setup is designed to be quick, repeatable, and low-maintenance — making it ideal for growing organizations or teams working across multiple product portfolios.

Why This Integration Matters

Modern Agile teams rely on Confluence for collaboration and on SpiraPlan for structured requirements. Until now, these tools lived in silos — leading to fragmented documentation, duplicated effort, and traceability gaps.

The Confluence SpiraApp bridges that gap:

  • Reduces admin overhead by eliminating manual linking

  • Enhances cross-team collaboration with real-time document access

  • Strengthens compliance by linking planning and documentation artifacts

As part of the expanding SpiraApps ecosystem, this app makes your requirements actionable, auditable, and accessible — all in one place.
