Important Update Effective February 1, 2024!
Due to recent changes in Jira and Confluence, we've made the tough decision to discontinue the OpenID Connect (OIDC)/OAuth app and no longer provide new versions for the newest Jira/Confluence releases as of January 31, 2024.
This is due to some necessary components no longer shipping with Jira/Confluence, which would require some extensive rewrites of the OIDC App.

User Guide
Use cases
InVision embed for Confluence integrates InVision screens, prototypes and UI seamlessly so that you can collaborate on your product design without leaving Confluence Cloud.
This translates into three main use cases:
Embedding InVision's UI into Confluence
This is interesting if you want your power users to use InVision from Confluence.
To embed the entire UI, have a look at point 1: Full UI integration below.
Embedding InVision content to gather feedback and reviews
You can embed Invision screens in:
- Play mode
- Review mode
- Inspect mode
This is interesting:
- If you are already managing approvals in Confluence, for example using Comala workflows
- If you prefer to communicate new designs and prototypes in Confluence as opposed to emails and/or Slack messages
- If you work as a horizontal team, where feedback is gathered from multiple users instead of one or two reviewers.
Embedding InVision content in view-only mode
This is interesting:
- to document final screens and prototypes without incorporating new comments
- to gather feedback only as Confluence comments
Types of links in InVision embed for Confluence
1. Full UI integration
With InVision embed for Confluence you can embed a fully working InVision UI.
This includes:
- Access to every screen permitted for that user
- Navigation through screens
- Ability to comment
- Ability to add new sets and new screens
- Ability to add labels and filter results
- Navigate to other prototypes, documents, or boards
- And even getting shared links for embedding more InVision screens!
To do this, simply embed in Confluence the URL of your main InVision panel, which should look something like this:
2. Links to a set of screens
You can also share a number of screens for users to navigate with and review sequentially, for example to follow a UI flow.
- Simply share based on your existing selection
- And the users will be able to navigate between screens and add their comments from Confluence
Bonus: Find out how to share selected screens in the InVision documentation.
3. Links to single screens
InVision embed for Confluence allows sharing a single screen that can be interacted with.
- Open in InVision the screen that you would like to share
- Find the share button on the bottom right corner of the screen
- Select a private or a public link
- Embed the link in your Confluence cloud page
If you'd like to embed a single screen without giving Confluence users the ability to interact with it, you can follow these instructions:
Horizontal scrolling
Whenever InVision embed for Confluence displays a screen, the horizontal scroll will be hidden behind the bottom black panel. To show it, click on Hide as shown in the image below:
You will then be able to scroll. To show the panel again, simply click on Show.
Known issue embedding consecutive links
When several links are embedded in edit mode before publishing, only the first embed link will display a preview. However, the published page should properly embed all links.
