Setting up the connector

3. Click Connect, review the necessary permissions, and click Connect to Confluence (On-Premises).
4. Follow the instructions listed to get your base url and API key.
5. Optionally, name your connection.
   1. Remember, you can create multiple connections for the same application to be used with different User Groups if desired, so be descriptive when naming your connection.
6. Then select whether to include all historical data or start from a specific date.
7. Then select which Spaces you want included in the connector instance. 
8. Click Next: Select groups and select the user groups that you want to have access to that Connection and click Done
9. Lastly, once synced, run a test query in GoSearch to ensure that the data in the Confluence (On-Premises) workspace connector is available for you and your team members.

Access permissions 

GoSearch connectors follow the Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP), ensuring that only data all users have access to in the source application is pulled in via workspace connectors.

Private or restricted data is inaccessible through the Confluence (On-Premises) workspace connector. Workspace connectors can be further limited by assigning access to specific User Groups, so only the right teams see the appropriate resources within GoSearch.
