Getting Started

Once the add-on is installed we will try to crawl all contents of your Confluence instance. This process can take a few minutes to a couple of hours depending on the size of your Confluence instance. While you can still perform search queries when our crawlers are indexing your confluence instance, the results might not be optimal.

Here are some tips on using PageBrain Search:

If you want to be able to search contents of instance A from instance B:

  1. Go to PageBrain Settings page from instance A and copy the Federated token

  2. Go to PageBrain Settings page in instance B and paste the Federated token.

Copy and paste the Federated token from instance B to instance A, if you want to search vice versa.

Now your when you search from one instance, the results will also include results from another instance
