Cloud Confluence + Jira redirects

Question

Hi,

We've recently migrated all our data from self-hosted JIra/Confluence server, over to the Cloud, and would now like to point our old FQDNs, jira.example.com and wiki.example.com to respective cloud applications.

I wouldn't like unnecessary complexity, and have a web server to do the redirect, but unfortunately, I was unable to find per cloud application FQDNs (and how to configure them) that I can use as data field of a CNAME records.

Can you suggest best approach to have jira.exmaple.com redirect to <company>.atlassian.net jira app, and wiki.example.com redirect to Confluence app?

Many Thanks,
Milos.

Thanks. Apparently a web server rewrite/redirect cannot be bypassed, so I that's how I did it.

Hi Milos,

As far as I know there's not a specific DNS that points directly to Confluence. :-(

Best,

Maarten

Thanks Maarten, works for Jira all right, but isn't there a way to "kill both flies" with one stroke (i.e. take care of Confluence also using just a DNS record).

(Personally, I'd settle with just the Jira CNAME for both, but the users were already asking: "Where can I find Confluence?")
