Tutorial: Using Confluence Cloud and Loom together

Using Confluence with Loom helps teams create videos to complement written content or provides an alternative way to consume information.

Save time and provide visual clarity with Loom

Asking questions, providing feedback, or supplying quick answers has never been easier.

Recording and embedding Loom videos is a quick and easy way to enhance collaboration on your Confluence page. It allows you to articulate your ideas and provide contextual responses with a human touch.

Whether you opt for a walkthrough with screensharing or choose to go on camera to share high-level thoughts, Loom videos serve to enrich existing content by providing additional clarity with valuable feedback to your team in a more personable than text.
