Troubleshoot Confluence + Hugo

This article will describe a number of common causes for Confluence issues, and how to resolve them yourself.

Application uninstalled in Confluence Settings:

If your Confluence administrator uninstalls Hugo in Confluence settings, this can cause errors in Hugo as the credentials have been invalidated.

Application was not installed by a user with Site Access in Confluence:

Ensure that the user who installs Hugo in Confluence, is a member of the administrator group in Atlassian user settings.
See here for Atlassian instructions.

If I update a Hugo note after it has been saved, will my Confluence page update?

Hugo will not edit any pages in your Confluence account after they have been sent.
Therefore pages that are created by Hugo will remain unchanged even if you edit the note afterwards.

If I delete a Hugo note, what happens to the Confluence page?

Hugo will not delete any data from your Confluence account, it will only send pages to Confluence from your Hugo notes.
Therefore pages will remain in Confluence even if the note that created them has been deleted.
