Confluence embedded draw.io png created via confluence plugin does not contain xml metadata


When exporting my diagram created via local draw.io into a png named "sample.png"I can import it back into a blank draw.io project and the objects are parsed out allowing me to proceed with editing the diagram via draw.io

enter image description here

When I create a new diagram via the draw.io plugin on confluence I am unable to replicate this behaviour - instead my diagram is displayed as an image within the local draw.io diagram

enter image description here

My hope was to programmatically manipulate the xml that is probably "hidden" somewhere in sample.png (How to programatically extract XML data from draw.io PNG) I am searching for a way to force confluence to use the "draw.io formatted png" instead of what I assume to be a default format


Solution

  • It's not supported in Confluence. You would have to specifically export PNG+XML.
