Quick summary
Confluence does not natively render Markdown, but you can preserve formatting by pasting content into a Code Snippet block set to Plain Text. This three-step method lets you display Markdown source cleanly inside any Confluence page without losing structure.
Steps
- Type /code in the Confluence editor and select "Code Snippet" to insert a formatted code block.
- Click "Select language" and choose "Plain Text" from the dropdown menu to disable syntax highlighting.
- Paste your Markdown content inside the code block to display it exactly as written.
