Confluence supports the autodiscovery part of the OpenSearch standard, by supplying an OpenSearch description document. This is an XML file that describes the web interface provided by Confluence's search function.

Good morning! Hope you are well.

Per the following:

All the search engine needs to do is publish a description file in XML format that specifies its interface; and to enable autodiscovery it can link to this description file via a <link> tag in the <head> section of its website.

What you will need to do is open the Developer Tools in your browser, and switch to the Elements tab. From here, expand the <head> tag and search for 'opensearch'. This will show you the path to the description document. (Note: In the case of a Cloud site it is http://<site_name>.atlassian.net/osd.jsp)

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have further questions!

Regards,

Shannon
