      This improvement ticket is to track adding support for Office 2016 for Office Connector in future versions of Confluence.

      Presently, editing documents in Office 2016 is not supported due to limitations in WebDAV with some Office file types and browsers.

      Some combinations of browsers and office files types work, however there is not a clear solution to make this work across all file type and currently supported browsers.

      Atlassian Status as of August 2018

      Hi all,

      Thank you for your patience on this issue.

      We are pleased to announce that the new Edit Files experience is here. From Confluence 6.11 (release notes). Now, you can edit any file attached to a Confluence page using your preferred desktop application, then save the file back to Confluence automatically. The new Atlassian Companion app works across Windows and Mac operating systems with any of our supported Browsers.

      Best,

      Victoria Li | Product Manager - Confluence Server

            Hi all,

            I'm pleased to let you know that we've started work on this issue.

            As previously mentioned, we've decided to make a significant investment to overhaul this feature. Users will be able to edit not only Office documents but most types of file, and have their changes saved back to Confluence. We will be working to ensure the new functionality works across browser and OS versions.

            In the interim, please checkout our compatibility matrix in the [Atlassian Support Documentation|https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/office-connector-prerequisites-170493096.html] to confirm current functionality.

            Best,
