[Read the full article here]

  • Confluence

  • Jira

  • Jira Roadmaps

  • Dropbox

  • Box

  • Google Drive

  • Microsoft OneDrive

  • Github

  • Bitbucket

Smart Links inline view

Hyperlink…but with style! The Smart Links inline view makes your links “pop” on the page. You’ll see the logo from the source of that link, so you quickly have more information about the type of content. When inserting a link to other Atlassian products, you’ll get even more details, like the status of a Jira ticket.

You may have already seen this update in your Confluence site as it rolled out back in 2019. Simply copy and paste the URL directly onto the page, and it will automatically be converted to an inline link. You can also type /link on the page or select the macro from the insert menu in the editor toolbar.
