Profiles consist of a common set of parameters that allow users to choose a profile in the macros. Some advantages of using profiles are:
Profiles allow user authentication required by some URLs to be hidden from page viewers and editors. Only Confluence administrators have access to this information.
Enables macro editors to quickly configure the macro by reusing a shared definition for URL access.
Relative addressing can be used making the page content less likely to require changes when base URLs are relocated.
Macro configured URL (that is not a full URL) is appended to the profile provided URL.

...
Provide the following parameters to grant access:
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|

Users | Enter the users who can access the macro. You can add more user names to the trusted users list. Administrators are recommended to add appropriate edit page restrictions to match the configuration given on this screen. |
Groups | Enter the user group who can access the macro. You can add multiple user groups here. Administrators are recommended to add appropriate edit page restrictions to match the configuration given on this screen. |
