Smart Link preferences
You can set your preferences on how links are displayed across Confluence, Atlas, Jira and soon for other Atlassian products. Your chosen link display option appears when you edit pages or comment on issues.
Go to link preferences from Confluence:
Select your avatar from the top-right menu.
Select Manage Account.
Select the Link preferences tab at the top.
Go to link preferences from Jira:
Select the settings cog on the top-right menu.
Under Personal settings, select Atlassian account settings.
From the left-side menu, select Link preferences.
Set your default display for new links
You can choose how to display links you create:
From Link preferences, go to the Default display section.
Choose your preferred display option from the dropdown.
Links created by other users will appear depending on the display option they choose.
Remember to refresh active editor sessions after you update your preferences.
Exceptions for specific domains
You can set different display options for links from specific domains:
From Link preferences, go to the section labeled Exceptions for specific domains.
Type or paste in a domain or URL.
Choose your preferred display option from the dropdown.
Select Submit.
Add exceptions for other domains if needed.
Exceptions for subdomains
You may enter subdomains as your URL to set default display options for links from specific sections of a website.
For example, if you set a preference for links from google.com to display as a card, all subdomains will follow the same rule.
If you only set an exception for slides.google.com, the other Google domains display as the default setting or any custom preferences you may have set.
If a domain cannot be displayed as an embed, your link will default to inline.
