A mindmap can be created within any Confluence page, provided you have permission to edit the page.

...

The macro is pre-populated with a default mindmap data as below:

Edit Mindmap

Editing the node

1. Editing the text in the node
   Select the node, typing directly. Another way to do so is by double click the node.

   Should you want to add text in the following line of the node, press Shift + Enter.

2. End editing the text in the node
   You can end editing the text in the node by clicking or tapping on the canvas (outside the node) or pressing Enter on a hardware keyboard.

3. Adding mark
   Select the node, and you can see the Node toolbar at the bottom. Hover the “face” icon, you will see many icon, click it to marking the node.
   

   

4. Adding notes
   Select the node, and you can see the node toolbar at the bottom. Click the “document” icon, the note panel will show on the right side of page, and you can noting something for the node.
   

   

Creating new node

1. To adding new child nodes, one way is hover the node and click the “add” button. Another way to do so is by pressing the Tab key when a node is selected.

2. To create nodes at the same level, aka sibling nodes, press Enter with a node selected.
   

   

Deleting nodes

To delete a node, you can now press Backspace key or select Delete Node from the node tool bar at the bottom of page.

Organize

1. Reconnecting nodes
   The great thing about digital mind mapping (rather than putting pen to paper) is that you can easily change and rearrange the structure and hierarchy — without starting from scratch. We like to call this reconnecting. 

   To reconnect nodes:

   Click and hold a node, drag the node on top of another node. Once you lift your finger, the node (and all of its child nodes) will attach to the new parent node and match the style.
   

   

   
   

2. Changing the nodes order
   If you want to change the order of your nodes, you can drag a node to its new place relative to other existing nodes and release it there.
   

3. Fold/Unfold branches
   When your structure gets more complex, it can be super helpful to hide parts of your mind map that you might not need to see right now but want to come back to later.

   To fold and unfold branches, follow these steps:

   1. First, go ahead and select the last parent node you want to see.

   2. Once you select the node, the node tool bar at the bottom of the page will appear. You will see the “brach“ icon on the tool bar, once you’ve decided where you want to fold, go ahead and click. You’ll now see that once the branch is folded, there’ll also be a fold indicator next to the node that lets you unfold the branch again.
