From memory, .reqif files are xml based files for exchanging requirement documentats.

Confluence is not a requirements management tool (although some do use it for requirements), so there's nowhere to import most of the data to. 

You could attach the raw files, but if that's not good enough, you'll need to find or write something that can convert the XML into something more suitable for Confluence.

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- ,
Any idea on how can I import Excel to confluence? 
I can only see the below options.

Confluence is also not a system for handling lists of items.

It makes no sense to import an excel sheet.  What would each line of the sheet become?  Pages?

There isn't one. 

There are a couple for Server, but that's not a solution for you if you're going to be doing this repeatedly.  (If it's a one-off, you could fire up a development Confluence, add requirements Yogi and the ReqIf importer, run the imports, then migrate it into your Cloud system, but I'm not sure if that would get everything you want from the files)

Oh, I would also strongly recommend a look at "requirements yogi" for Confluence Cloud if you're trying to use Confluence for requirement management.
