Data Residency - Where does Aura store content?
- Philip Feldmann
- Jan Kuntscher
The content of an Aura page macro is stored on your Confluence instance, within the Atlassian Cloud. When viewing a page with an Aura macro, this content is exclusively exchanged between the Atlassian Cloud and your company network, without any other parties in between.
Does appanvil store any data when we install Aura?
Like all Atlassian Cloud add-ons, we need to store the “installation payload” when you install Aura. This data includes only meta information and no personal or company information. It includes your Confluence’s base URL, your SEN, and cryptographic keys to ensure secure connections between Aura and the Atlassian ecosystem. You can find an example of such a payload here: Connect app descriptor
Does appanvil store any data when we use Aura?
By default, all data and content is stored on your Confluence instance. Aura offers a color management feature, that allows you to store commonly used colors to ensure that all macros follow your corporate identity. This feature is optional, only administrators can configure the color management. Therefore, “regular” users can’t store any data on our servers. This feature stores nothing but color codes, the names of the corresponding colors, and wether a palette is enabled or not. No personal or company information is stored. You can learn more about color management here: Aura - Color Management
Does appanvil access my Confluence or any page on my Confluence?
No.
Where are your servers located?
We do support US and EU data residency. Depending on your Confluence preferences, Aura will use servers in the following regions:
EU: Belgium (GCP europe-west1)
US: Iowa (GCP us-central1)
