`BlogFieldMappings`  <a name="cfn-kendra-datasource-confluenceblogconfiguration-blogfieldmappings"></a>
Maps attributes or field names of Confluence blogs to Amazon Kendra index field names. To create custom fields, use the `UpdateIndex` API before you map to Confluence fields. For more information, see [Mapping data source fields](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kendra/latest/dg/field-mapping.html). The Confluence data source field names must exist in your Confluence custom metadata.  
If you specify the `BlogFieldMappings` parameter, you must specify at least one field mapping.
