I'm following the steps here and it says you need a consumer key and public key from Workplace search. Where do I get this in Workplace search. The only thing i could find is an api key and that didn't work. Thanks.

Hi @ymoriarty

There was a bug in the 8.3.x line with Confluence Server and Jira Server where the incorrect OAuth Config page is displayed. 8.4.0 has the fix for this issue.

Hi @ymoriarty , yes you need to upgrade to 8.4.

You can get the consumer key and public key from the Confluence Server administrative console as described in [this guide](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/workplace-search/8.4/workplace-search-confluence-server-connector.html)

This does not seem correct. The guide you provided says you get it from Workplace Search and not Confluence. When I follow the steps in that link, no consumer or public key are provided. It only prompts you to enter a client id and secret. Please let me know how to connect with Confluence server.

### 

Configuring the Confluence Server Connector

* * *

**Step 1.** From the Workplace Search administrative dashboard’s **Sources** area, locate Confluence Server and click **Configure**. You are presented with a **Public Key** and a **Consumer Key**. Copy these keys and keep them handy, as we’ll need them in just a second.

@ymoriarty you need to upgrade to 8.4 first. This was the bug we'd mentioned

Thanks. So I have to upgrade Elasticsearch, Kibana and Enterprise Search to 8.4.x first? Can you please send me the links to those instructions because I cannot find them in your documentation.

@ymoriarty if you have a self-managed deployment, here is the documentation for the upgrade:

> **[Upgrade Elasticsearch | Elastic Installation and Upgrade Guide \[8.4\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack/current/upgrading-elasticsearch.html)**

> **[Upgrading self-managed deployments | Elastic Enterprise Search documentation...](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/enterprise-search/current/upgrading-self-managed-deployments.html)**

If you use a cloud deployment, the upgrade is a matter of a few clicks.
