How to Customize Tab Title for postInstallPage in Confluence Connect App?

노은지 January 8, 2025

Hello Community,

I am developing a Connect app for Confluence, and I have configured a postInstallPage in atlassian-connect.json like this:



"postInstallPage": {
  "url": "/get-started",
     "name": {
        "value": "Get Started"
     },
     "key": "post-install-get-started"
}



Currently, when the postInstallPage is opened, the browser tab title shows "Get Started - Confluence." However, I would like the title to display the app's name (e.g., "Hello World - Confluence") instead of the static "Get Started."

I’ve already checked the following:

  • <title> in the HTML file of /get-started is correctly set to "Hello World"

Despite this, the tab title still seems to use the value from the name field of the postInstallPage configuration in atlassian-connect.json.

Question:

  • Is it possible to customize the tab title for the postInstallPage dynamically when it is opened via the Manage Apps "Get Started" button?
  • If yes, how can I override or control the title to display the app's name instead?

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or best practices to resolve this.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @노은지 , welcome the Atlassian Community!

My advice would be to ditch the Connect and build app with Forge ;) 

Moving toward a Forge-only future

Check this recent blog post: https://www.atlassian.com/blog/developer/taking-the-ecosystem-forward-an-update-on-the-future-of-connect

With Forge you could use global page module with property "useAsGetStarted", check: https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/forge/manifest-reference/modules/confluence-global-settings/ 

Also for Dev related questions there is a great developer community: https://community.developer.atlassian.com/
