| User Permissions Needed |                                                             |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| To create a connection: | System Admin profile or Data Cloud Architect permission set |

Before you begin:

- Enable the Beta connector through the feature manager. See [Enable Data 360 Features](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_feature_manager.htm&type=5).
- Verify your admin has enabled firewalls on the system you want Data 360 to connect to by including these [IP addresses](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_data_cloud_ip_address_allowlist.htm&type=5) to your allowlists.

1.  In Data Cloud, click **Setup**, and select **Data Cloud Setup**.

2.  Under External Integrations, select **Other Connectors**.

3.  Click **New**.

4.  On the Source tab, select **Confluence Structured Data** and click **Next**.

5.  Enter a connection name, connection API name, and provide the authentication and connection details.

6.  For Authentication Details, provide the username and API token to authenticate the user.

    -  For Username, enter the username to authenticate the user.

    -  For API Token, enter the UID or base64 encoded token.

7.  For Connection Details, provide the connection URL and TimeZone.

    -  For Connection URL, provide the hostname and port. The hostname ends with atlassian.net plus the port.

    -  For TimeZone, provide the timezone for your Confluence Cloud account.

    **note:** In Confluence Cloud, the time zone is defined in your Atlassian user profile settings and reflects the time zone configured for the authenticated account. Enter a valid IANA time zone identifier in the format Region/City (for example, America/New_York).
