Description:

The new Fabric Editor allows users to upload/add attachments from their computer but it does not allow adding attachments from other pages or space.

Making this feature available will allow users to reuse existing images on a page or from other space as well.

Currently, when adding an attachment to a Confluence page using the new cloud editor, it is not possible to add the same attachment again on the same page without re-uploading it. This limitation significantly impacts our users’ workflow, as many need to reuse the same files or images multiple times within a single page.

Request:

Reuse Attachments on the Same Page:

• Attachments that have already been uploaded to a Confluence page should be available in the “Add image/file” macro.
• Users should be able to insert these existing attachments multiple times on the same page without needing to upload them again.

Search and Add Attachments from Other Pages:

• Provide the ability to search for attachments from other Confluence pages.
• Allow users to add these attachments to the current page directly, streamlining content creation and reducing redundant uploads.

Benefits:

• Improves efficiency for users who frequently reuse files and images.
• Reduces storage redundancy and clutter from duplicate uploads.
• Enhances the overall user experience in the Confluence cloud editor.

Impact:
This feature would greatly benefit all users working with attachments in Confluence, especially in collaborative environments where content reuse is common.
