Can I prevent Google and other search engines from indexing Confluence Cloud?

I would like search engines to not index content from my Confluence Cloud site so that Google searches do not show up information from the site.

 

I know that it looks to be a way to do this through on premise Confluence with the robots.txt, however, I have not found any way to do this for the Cloud version.

Hi @TerenceL, Have you checked your "External Links" setting in Confluence?

We have this already, but this is not what I was asking as that link talks about blocking URLs that are on the page itself.

 

What I am asking for is my Confluence site not in Google search results.
