About Your Account

The ArchivesSpace wiki pages are created using the content collaboration tool Confluence from the software company Atlassian. We also use the Atlassian tool JIRA to enable the creation of tickets related to ArchivesSpace bugs and feature requests. Most of our wiki and JIRA areas are public and do not require an Atlassian account.

To edit our wiki pages, submit an ArchivesSpace feature request, report a bug or access the ArchivesSpace Help Center, you will need an Atlassian account. Your Atlassian account is free and is not managed by the ArchivesSpace program team. It is your personal account that exists independently of the Atlassian products you use or Confluence spaces you may participate in. You can use this account to access any ArchivesSpace Confluence sites you have access to, including the main ArchivesSpace page and the ArchivesSpace Help Center. If you are active on any other Atlassian spaces, this is the same account you will use to access and manage those spaces. If you already have an Atlassian account but would like to join the main ArchivesSpace page, you can do so here.
