Global Configuration

Once installed a global administrator will need to configure the app to configure the Comala Publishing app to set

Spaces that use Publishing

  • the spaces that can publish and sync content. These spaces will also be enabled to copy the space content

  • the spaces that can use snapshot publishing

Space administrators that use publishing

The global administrator will also need to configure the Confluence user groups

  • who can publish and sync content from a source space to a target space

  • who can undertake a one-off copy of space content to a target space

  • who use snapshot publishing in a space

If using Comala Publishing snapshot feature with a version of Comala Document Management prior to v7.20, the global administrator will need to generate a Snapshot Publishing user token for space administrators to be used to authorise use of snapshot publishing in their spaces(s).

Content copying global configuration options

The global administrator will also be able to

  • edit the global sync-label that can be used as a content filter for publishing or for copying space content

  • edit/amend the content property prefixes to be copied e.g. for metadata
