Incoming Links Indexing

Indexing in the Incoming Links app ensures accurate and up-to-date incoming link information for Confluence content. Here’s how it works:

What indexing does:

  • The app reviews Confluence content (pages, blogposts, comments) to identify links pointing to Confluence pages.

  • An indexing catalogue in the app’s database to store this link information.

Permissions required for indexing:

  • Indexing is performed by the app user, named STAGIL Incoming Links for Confluence Cloud.

  • This user must have view permissions for all Confluence spaces pages in which need to be indexed.

When to run indexing?

  • Indexing is required after installing or reinstalling the app.

Existing page index is automatically updated whenever content is updated, e.g. page with link is published.

How to run indexing?

  • Admins can access the indexing page in Confluence administration.

  • See STAGIL Incoming Links, and then Incoming Links indexing in the administration sidebar.
