Confluence and JIRA was upgraded in August 2019.
In addition to performance and security updates there will be a number of new features and improvements, highlights are described below.
Up to 12 people can now work on the same page together. You'll be able to see who else is editing the page and where they are making changes that you will see in real time.
If you work on a page but aren't ready to publish you can click the close button to close the editor and automatically save your changes. You can return to the page and click edit any time to resume your work. Any unpublished changes from you or your team will be ready and waiting for you.
You can access your recently worked on items from the profile menu, as well as from the dashboard.
If you created a page, and it has never been published, you can head to Profile > Drafts to resume working on it.
It is very clear if you're about to discard or publish changes made by other people!
It is now easier to make changes to files without the hassle of downloading and uploading multiple times. You can now edit any file attached to a Confluence page using a desktop application, then save the file back to Confluence in a few clicks.
Note: To use this feature you will be required to download and install an application.

When you're editing a page, click the ellipsis (...) icon will give you additional options:
From the footer, you'll also be able to:
Type @ and the people you've mentioned previously will be listed first in addition to yourself (as mentioning yourself is done quite commonly too). Keep typing and it will continue suggesting people.
You can now copy a page and all its child pages to the same space or a different space. You can also replace text in the title and choose whether to copy Labels and attachments.
Edit pages on to go, get notifications and head straight to recent or saved pages.
