The {html} macro allows you to use HTML code within a Confluence page.

The {html-include} macro allows you to include the contents of an HTML file in a Confluence page.

CAUTION: Including unknown HTML inside a webpage is dangerous. Because HTML can contain active scripting components, it would be possible for a malicious attacker to present a user of your site with script that their web browser would believe came from you. Such code could be used, for example, to steal a user's authentication cookie and give the attacker their Confluence login password.
By default, the html macros are disabled. You should only turn on these macros if you trust all your users not to attempt to exploit them.

To enable the HTML macros,

  1. Go to the 'Administration Console' and click 'Plugins' in the left panel. This will display the installed plugins active for this Confluence installation.

  2. Click' 'HTML macros', then click 'Enable Plugin'
