How are attachments uploaded through confluence stored in Alfresco / what is the organization?
Every page in Confluence has a pageId.
When a document is uploaded from Confluence to Alfersco, it is stored in the following space in Alfresco:
Company Home/CONFLUENCE_ATTACHMENTS/<pageId>
Properties File
The properties file, "cair-config.properties" can be downloaded from the CAIr downloads page. It is used to overwrite default properties values used by CAIr.
The file must be put the Confluence home directory, and it can be used to define the following properties:
| Property Key |
Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ALFRESCO_URL | http://confluence.localhost.com/alfresco | Alfresco URL |
| ALFRESCO_USERNAME | admin | Username used for Alfresco log-in |
| ALFRESCO_PASSWORD | admin | Password used for Alfresco log-in |
If a property is not in properties file. or no properties file is present in the Confluence home directory, the property value will default to the value in the second column in the table above.
How is authentication handled / How do I change username and password for Alfresco?
Every time the Confluence server needs to send a REST request to the Alfresco server, it first gets a ticket from Alfresco by calling the Alfresco Login webscript.
The username and password for the Alfresco Login webscript are read from the properties file.
To change the username and or password:
- Create the file "cair-config.properties" in the Confluence home directory if it doesn't exist
- Set the value of the two properties: ALFRESCO_USERNAME, and ALFRESCO_PASSWORD
How do I configure the URL and Port for the Alfresco server?
The Alfresco URL is defined in the properties file.
To change the URL:
- Create the file "cair-config.properties" in the Confluence home directory if it doesn't exist
- Set the value of the property: ALFRESCO_URL
