Use this interactive demo to learn how to customize a space key when creating a new Confluence space.

Quick summary

The Confluence space key is a unique identifier assigned to every space, and you can customize it during space creation to match your team's naming conventions. This guide walks through the exact steps to create a new space and set a custom space key before finalizing the setup.


Steps

  1. Go to "Create" and click "Space" to begin creating a new space.
  2. Enter the name of the new space in the provided field.
  3. Choose a space type such as Collaboration, Knowledge base, or Custom.
  4. Edit the space key as needed, then click "Next" to finish.

📌 Why this matters

The Confluence space key is a permanent identifier used in URLs and page links across your wiki, making it critical to get right from the start. Customizing the space key during setup ensures your team's spaces are consistently named, easy to reference, and aligned with internal naming conventions. For teams managing multiple projects or departments in Confluence, a well-structured space key improves navigation, reduces confusion, and keeps your knowledge base organized at scale.
