Publish Information without Macro

How to publish information in Atlassian Confluence without using Prolaborate Macro?

Model information can also be published in Confluence without installing the Prolaborate Macro using any HTML Macro available in Confluence.

Note:
While it is possible to publish model information in Confluence using any HTML Macro, we do not recommend this approach due to potential security risks and the possibility of data leakage. To ensure the security of your data and maintain control over its access, we strongly advise using the Prolaborate Macro for publishing information in Confluence.
