Process management directly within the Enterprise Wiki
The viadee BPMN Modeler is a lightweight extension for the Enterprise Wiki System Atlassian Confluence. With the BPMN Modeler it is possible to carry out methodically profound process management directly within Confluence. The numerous and valuable advantages of this approach resulted from the extensive project experience of our BPM experts and were the motivation for the development of the plug-in.
Advantages
- Models can be created directly within the Wiki, framed by accompanying documentation, e.g. using process fact sheets and process maps
- Technical process diagrams, which are for example executed by the Camunda BPM process engine, are also designed in Confluence
- Linking process knowledge with other aspects of the company
- All process models are in one place and changes are versioned automatically
- Process information is made accessible to every employee of the company, in order to create transparency for operative personnel
- Standard-compliant BPMN 2.0 models can be imported from other modeling tools such as Camunda, Signavio or Adonis by drag and drop
- Export your models to visual formats like PDF or as an image as well as to BPMN 2.0 XML files
- Easy to use modeling tool available to every employee without installing additional software
- Active modeling support through tools like automated layout helpers, the BPMN-Validator or visual token simulation as well as individual preferences for the plug-in

Customer Review
"Finally a plug-in that fully supports BPMN 2.0 and is very comfortable to use!" - Heiko Fricke, Atlassian Marketplace
Overview of the features
Easy Modeling with BPMN Modeling directly within Confluence
- Creating, viewing and editing standard compliant BPMN 2.0 process models
sub processes - Using sub processes for loops
seamless integration into Confluence Free placement of process models on pages as Confluence macros
- PDF and Word export: When Confluence pages are exported in Word or PDF format, the process diagram is included in the export
- Save diagram versions as attachments to the Confluence page
Importing and exporting models High Compatibility with other BPMN 2.0 compliant modelling tools
- Import from other standard-compliant modelling tools such as Camunda, Signavio or Adonis
- Export as standard-compliant BPMN 2.0 XML
- Technically experienced users can modify the XML file directly in the BPMN Modeler for Confluence
- As a member of the BPMN Model Interchange Working Group we continuously demonstrate and expand our compatibility with other tools
Export to various formats, e.g. for PowerPoint presentations
- Export to e.g. PNG, CSV, SVG and Confluence table
Interact with common Version Control Systems
- Connect the Plug-in with GitLab or Bitbucket and keep your diagrams synchronized
Collaborative Working Comments on model elements
- You can add comments to each node in the process model
- The comments document, for example, the current state of discussion in process modeling
- For each comment, the author and the timestamp of the comment are saved
Version control and version commenting
- When saving changes made to a process diagram the author can leave a version comment
- This makes it possible to trace which model change was made in which diagram version.
Version comparison
- You can choose two different versions of one diagram and visually compare them
- Process analysts can see, which process elements have been added, which elements have been deleted, where there have been changes made to attributes, and where the order of elements on the drawing area has been changed
Linking and enriching models Link wiki pages, external content and process models
- If you work with hierarchical process structures, e.g. main and sub processes, or with process interfaces, you can link these diagrams and navigate through the process net.
- Clicking on the linked process directly displays the diagram in the preview window
- From here you can jump to the linked process diagram and start editing
- View all incoming links to a diagram in one table
Extended attributes panel
- Display of all links stored for a process element
- Textual description of the process element
- View and edit Camunda specific attributes
- Integration with Managed Data Fields – Attach structured data fields to process elements and evaluate their values across process diagrams
Customizing colours - Colour highlighting of the process element
SUPPORTING TOOLS Tools to support efficient modeling
- Diagram minimap for better orientation in large diagrams
- Validate your diagrams against best modelling practices
- Token Simulation – Simulate the token flow to detect logical modeling flaws.
- Process Net: Visualize (sub-)process dependencies as network graph or table
technical attributes Extended information for process elements
- Technical attribute for process automation
- Show/hide links individually
- Show/hide comments
FOR CONFLUENCE ADMINS Global Admin Settings
- Restrict the BPMN modeler to specified Confluence spaces
- Get an overview over all existing BPMN models
- Configure default settings for new diagrams
