Add a sharepoint page as a smartlink

[Devi]

Hi ,

I am unable to add a sharepoint link to a smartlink and it gives the attached error. Does any one have guidance or checklist on what to look for in this case.

Atlassian support could not figure out.

Hi @Devi 

• For a smart link to work, the user must have permissions to access the content. Say you link to a Google Docs document. Only people with a proper access to the Google docs itself will be able to view it.
• Not all links are created equal. An embed link generated by a given tool will feature a lot of embedding details - information on size, borders, etc. Smart links don't need that. You can either use a normal link to that document or remove the useless its from the embed link. See my article for details - it's dealing with the iframe macro but there's a section on how to 'doctor' an embed link.

Hope this helps.
