Since Atlassian does not provide cross application (Jira to Confluence) APIs, ARN needs you to store Confluence credentials in order to use 'Publish to Confluence' action.
Jira administrators will be able to see the 'Configurations' page under Administration → Add-ons → Automated Release Notes section. Expected parameters here include - confluence url, username & password. On click of submit, the credentials will be saved only if they are successfully verified by the API. If there is some kind of error, the data will not be saved. Relevant message will be displayed on screen.
If Confluence credentials are not added, 'confluence action' will continue to show error message.

Recently Atlassian has updated its cloud applications to allow only the API tokens. Basic authentication (using password) does not work anymore. API tokens can be generated from your Atlassian account - follow these steps. Thus for the Cloud version of Confluence, use the generated API token in place of password.
