Use this interactive demo to learn how to add a Table of Contents to any Confluence page.

Quick summary

A Table of Contents in Confluence automatically generates navigable heading links, helping readers jump to relevant sections instantly. You can insert and customize it in seconds using the slash command menu and the Basic or Advanced settings panel.


Steps

  1. Open the Confluence page where you want to add the Table of Contents.
  2. Type /table of contents anywhere on the page, then select it from the menu to insert the macro.
  3. Customize basic settings by selecting Basic in the right-side panel.
  4. For more control, click the Advanced tab to configure options such as indent headings and keyword filters.

📌 Why this matters

A Table of Contents in Confluence makes long pages far easier to navigate by automatically linking to every heading in the document. Teams working with structured knowledge bases, technical documentation, or meeting notes benefit from faster information retrieval without manual formatting. The built-in Confluence macro updates dynamically as content changes, eliminating the need to maintain navigation links by hand. This feature is essential for any team using Confluence as a central wiki or documentation hub who wants to improve readability and reduce time spent searching for information.
