Seatsurfing for Confluence relaunch

If your team already lives in Confluence, booking a desk shouldn't mean switching tools. That's why we've rebuilt our Seatsurfing for Confluence from the ground up. The new version is available now on the Atlassian Marketplace — and it's free.

🔑 Much simpler setup: automatic login​

The biggest improvement is how easy the integration has become. Confluence users are now logged into Seatsurfing automatically, based on their email address. No separate sign-in, no extra configuration.

Getting started takes just a few steps:

  1. Install the app from the Atlassian Marketplace.
  2. Add the Seatsurfing macro to a Confluence page.
  3. Make sure a Seatsurfing account exists for each user's Confluence email address.

That's it. When your colleagues open the page, they see the Seatsurfing booking interface right inside Confluence and can book a desk or meeting room without ever leaving the page.

💸 Free of charge​

The app itself is free. Just install it and connect it to your Seatsurfing organization.

☁️ Available for Seatsurfing Cloud​

Please note that the Confluence integration is a Cloud-only feature. It works with organizations hosted on Seatsurfing Cloud; it's not available for self-hosted Seatsurfing installations.

🧩 Built on Atlassian Forge​

The new app is based on Atlassian Forge, Atlassian's current platform for cloud apps. Forge apps are the way forward for apps in the Atlassian ecosystem.

You'll find everything you need to set up the app in our Confluence documentation.
