This article illustrates the process of linking Confluence to another app via Application Links (sometimes called "app links" or AppLinks). Markdown-url macro will prompt you to authorise the app, on the first instance of rendering Markdown content in the macro. Creating AppLinks has many advantages, such as:

  • Security: Password required at the time of creating an AppLink by authenticating credentials.
  • Usability: One-time password helps you avoid frequent changes to your passwords.
  • Seamless access across the platform: admins have to configure AppLinks only once for permitted users to access the app.
Info
  • To link Confluence to another app, you should be an administrator on both the instances of the app. 
  • Atlassian recommends that you use OAuth with impersonation authentication if you check the option The servers have the same set of users, at the time of linking.
  • You will need the URL of the application you want to link to Confluence.
