Quick summary
Freezing the top row in a Confluence table keeps your header row locked in place as readers scroll through long data sets. In Confluence, the first row of any table is automatically treated as a frozen header once the page is published or updated.
Steps
- Type /table on your Confluence page and select "Table" from the slash-command menu to insert a new table.
- Enter your column headers in the first row — this row automatically becomes the frozen header when the page is published.
- Add your content in the rows below the header row.
- Click "Publish" or "Update" to save the page — the top row will stay fixed while readers scroll through the table.
