  • Custom Content Security Policy

    • You can allow embedding External Share links in Iframes. For more details check Iframe Support(CSP) documentation.

  • SameSite Cookie Restriction

    • Leave default 'Lax' for a safer option that restricts cookies to same-site contexts. Select 'None' to allow cookies to be sent in all contexts, which is necessary for logging into password-protected External Shares within iframes on third-party sites.

  • Fallback User for Inactive Shares

    • Assign a fallback user API to automatically take over shares created by users who no longer have access on Confluence instance or to view the space of shared page. This ensures that shared content remains accessible and functional, even if the original user is inactive.


 Actions

In the Actions tab, you can delete all links.
