Known issues

Page edit with synchrony (concurrent editing)

Page edit with synchrony enabled may be unstable. All page objects inheriting from ConfluenceBase have a
disableSynchrony() method to prevent problems. Example:

const upm = new UniversalPluginManager();
upm.disableSynchrony();
  • No labels
