Info
titlePoints to remember!
  • Only raw URLs must be given in either, the URL field in profiles or the Location fields, in the macros.
  • It is recommended to specify absolute URLs to access files from public locations and to use profiles to access files from private sources. For example, a raw URL that can access an HTML file in a public Bitbucket repository is valid. But to render an HTML file located in a private repository, we recommend using a profile.
  • Profiles are a means to access and retrieve contents from external applications such as Bitbucket, GitLab or GitHub. A profile already contains the base URL and the required credentials (user credentials or an access token) to access the relevant application.
  • This method allows multiple users to access a profile across pages and instances of the macros.
