What it does

Everything you need to draw from text.

Transom Diagrams adds one macro to Confluence. It has a split editor, a live preview and a clean view for readers.

Live preview

Edit source on the left. The diagram updates on the right as you type. Errors show the line number and a Go to line button.

PlantUML and Mermaid

One app for both. The editor detects the type from your first line. You can also switch it by hand.

10 starter templates

Flowchart, sequence, class, ER, state, Gantt and C4-style. Start from a template and change it.

Made for readers

Crisp SVG on the page. Zoom, fit to page, copy the source, or download SVG and PNG.

PDF and Word export

On save, the app attaches a PNG of your diagram to the page. Confluence PDF and Word exports show the image.

Light and dark

Diagrams follow the Confluence theme. The editor and toolbar work with a keyboard. Exports are always light on white.

Two engines

Same diagram. Your choice of syntax.

Use the language your team already knows. Both engines run in your browser, inside Atlassian's app frame.

PlantUML uses the built-in Smetana layout. It does not use Graphviz, so no extra component is loaded. See the limits.

Private by design

Your diagrams never leave your site.

Many diagram apps send your source to an outside server to draw it. Transom Diagrams does not.

  • Built on Atlassian Forge. The app runs on Atlassian's infrastructure.
  • No external servers. The app asks for no permission to call outside services.
  • No outside renderer. PlantUML and Mermaid draw in your browser. Nothing can go down on our side.
  • No stored copy. Your diagram source lives in the macro on your Confluence page. We hold no copy.
  • Built to be eligible for Runs on Atlassian. Atlassian awards the badge itself, after listing.

Questions

Good to know.

Does my diagram source leave my Confluence site?

No. The source is saved in the macro on your page. Your browser draws the diagram inside Atlassian's app frame. The app makes no outside requests.

Can I export a page to PDF or Word?

Yes. On save, the app attaches a PNG of the diagram to the page. Confluence uses that image in PDF and Word exports. How export works.

How large can a diagram be?

The source can be up to 100 KB. The editor tells you if you are over, and by how much. All limits.

Does it work with Confluence Data Center?

No. Transom Diagrams is for Confluence Cloud.

Can I move diagrams over from another app?

A migration helper is planned. It is not part of version 1.0. Today you can paste your PlantUML or Mermaid source into the editor.

Who do I contact for help?
