You need to be a Confluence Administrator in order to install Embedder.

  1. First, login as the Administrator to your Confluence instance and select Apps from under Confluence Administration by clicking on icon at the top right corner.

  2. In the Find new apps page, search for Embedder for Confluence.

  3. Click on the Try it free button on the right side of the corresponding listing

  4. This will result in the Embedder for Confluence app being installed and activated.

  5. A confirmation dialog will tell you that the installation was successful.

You can remove Embedder app from your Confleunce in the app administration pages. Uninstalling permanently removes it from your application and file system. If you only want to temporarily remove it, you may choose to disable it instead.

Steps to uninstall

  2. Find Embedder in the app list.

  3. Click on the row to open its details view.

  5. Confirm the action by clicking Continue. When finished, a notice appears in the details view indicating that the app was successfully uninstalled.

You can enable or disable Embedder app from the manage apps page.

If Embedder app is disabled, it can be re-enabled later.
