Atlassian Confluence

AppMap integrates with Confluence, the popular corporate wiki developed by the Atlassian.

Confluence facilitates robust documentation and knowledge sharing. AppMap automatically generates interactive software diagrams from run-time data, ensuring an accurate and up-to-date understanding of code architecture and behavior. This integration leverages the strengths of both platforms enabling teams to better understand, document, and collaborate on their software projects.
