INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR when embedding a draw.io diagram from Google Drive

[Matias Cravero]

Hello everyone,

I'm encountering an issue when trying to embed a draw.io diagram into a Confluence page.

I am using the "Embed draw.io diagram" macro to insert a diagram stored in my Google Drive. My Google account is the same one I use for my Atlassian account.

However, every time I select the diagram from my Drive, I receive the following error message: INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR.

Could someone please advise on what might be causing this issue or suggest any potential solutions?

Best regards,

Matute

Hi @Matias Cravero :) 

The “Embed draw.io diagram” macro works best with publicly available URLs. When embedding private Google Drive files, authentication often fails, this is likely the cause of the error you’re seeing.

As a workaround, instead of embedding directly from Google Drive, try uploading your diagram into Confluence using the draw.io diagram macro. This way, your file is stored within Confluence itself and avoids any access or authentication issues.

Let me know if that solves it :) 

Best, 

MJ
