Can I create a whole space template?

[Rosario De Domenico]

This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Blueprints

I would like to define a "space template", not a page template.

That is, when the user clicks on create space in addition to the default promoted spaces (Blank, Documentation, Team, Personal, etc.) also my "template space" would be listed.

The template shall include some pages, some default access rights, some style sheets, etc.

Is this already possible? I only manage to create template pages so far.

Hi Rosario

Yes Confluence can be configured with a "space template" this is called a Space Blueprint. These are defined as plugins that are added to your instance. See https://developer.atlassian.com/confdev/confluence-plugin-guide/confluence-blueprints/space-blueprints for more details of how these can be developed. 

Alternatively if this looks scary many Atlassian partners are skilled in the implementation of Space Blueprints and will be able to assist you.

blueprints are way too complicated, but this is the answer to my question even if I do not like it...

It looks like this is not available in Atlassian Cloud version. Any alternatives (if possible for free :)

Thank you!

You can still install global templates in Cloud see https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/create-a-global-template/

and partners can still provide Global Blueprints which you can install see https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/install-a-global-blueprint/

The instructions for creating a Cloud Blueprint are covered under this https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/multi-page-blueprints-with-confluence-connect/

Hi Rosario,

Have a look at our Plugin. It does exatly what your are looking for and it is really simple to use. The template is a normal confluence page tree and the end users simple press a button, filling out the form and the space is created.
