Remarks

All communication between Confluence and SharePoint is done by the client of the end user (i.e. browser). Direct communication between these two ecosystems is not necessary.

All requests to the Microsoft Graph API are done in the context of the current user (see App Permissions (Cloud)).

AI Features

Image 2: High Level Architecture for the AI service

For making possible the AI features in our app in the background we are using an OpenAI Service provided by Microsoft Azure configured with GPT 40-mini model.

An Azure function acts as a proxy between the Confluence Macro and the OpenAI service to send the data to be analyzed and return the response from the OpenAI service.

The function is protected by Microsoft Authentication and will store no data is shared between requests.

No data is stored in the backend of our app or in the OpenAI service. Chat history is not supported and prompts will be cleared after each request.
