# 3 - Set up Confluence export

{% hint style="info" %}
This guide is suitable for Server and Data Center platforms only.

[Authentication](/glass-documentation/user-guides/user-guide/export-project-documentation-to-confluence-cloud.md) on Cloud instances is managed by the users.

## First steps <a href="#id-3-setupconfluenceexport-firststeps" id="id-3-setupconfluenceexport-firststeps"></a>

To carry out Confluence export in Glass Project Documentation, the following settings need to be configured in advance:

* You need to have a Confluence instance with a valid license to where the documentation will be exported.
* You need to have a Confluence Instance and a Jira Instance that are linked via the **Application Links** setting.
* You need an executing user or administrator in both Jira and Confluence.
* Users need to have specific permissions (View, Add, Edit) in the destination Confluence Space.

As an admin, you can configure all required settings in Jira and Confluence System Admin sites.

If you are new to Application Links or need a guiding hand in setup and configuration, check out the official [Atlassian Documentation for Application Links](https://confluence.atlassian.com/applinks/link-atlassian-applications-to-work-together-785449117.html).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.meta-inf.hu/glass-documentation/user-guides/administration-guide/3-set-up-confluence-export.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
