Confluence Cloud · AWS CloudWatch

AWS alarm health,
right inside Confluence

Embed live CloudWatch alarm statuses as color-coded badges directly in your Confluence pages. No AWS console access required for your team.

Everything you need, nothing you don’t

🟢

Badges reflect the real CloudWatch alarm state — OK, ALARM, or INSUFFICIENT DATA — fetched on each page view.

🔒

Connects via IAM role assumption with a unique External ID. No long-lived credentials stored. No data leaves Atlassian infrastructure.

🏢

Connect multiple AWS accounts and mix alarms from different environments on a single Confluence page.

🎨

Choose label text, position, and alignment. Preview your badge live before inserting it.

🔄

Optionally refresh badges every 1, 5, or 15 minutes so dashboards stay current while your team has the page open.

⚡

Runs entirely within Atlassian’s Forge platform. No external servers, no extra infrastructure to maintain.

One-time admin setup, then any page editor can add widgets.

Deploy a CloudFormation stack or Terraform module to create a read-only IAM role, then paste the Role ARN into the ConfluOps admin panel.

On any Confluence page, search for the CloudWatch Alarm Indicator macro, pick an alarm, and customise the label and layout.

Your team sees live alarm status right in Confluence — no AWS access required.
