If the URL is not allowed, Confluence will display an error message on the page. When the page is displayed, Confluence will check the URL against the allowlist. The macro code includes a URL from which the content is drawn. If this is the case, you may see an error on the pages which contain the RSS Feed macro.Ī user can add the RSS Feed macro or the HTML-include macro to a Confluence page.
