Check link status
Beta Feature - Check links status is currently in beta. A site administrator needs to enable it from the global settings before it becomes available in your spaces.
Link Management can check the links in your Confluence space and tell you which ones are working and which ones are broken. This works for both external links (pointing to websites outside Confluence) and internal links (pointing to other Confluence pages or content).
Enabling Check Links
Before you can use this feature, a site administrator needs to enable it:
Navigate to Confluence Administration > Link Management
Find the Beta Features section
Enable Broken Link Detection
Once enabled, the feature will be available in all spaces where Link Management is active.
Checking links in a space
After the beta toggle is enabled, you can check the links in your space:
Go to your space and open Space Settings > Integrations > Link Management
Click the Check Links button
Link Management will check all links and display their status
Hover over the status icon for details:
Understanding link statuses
After a check completes, each link shows a status indicator:
Working - The link is reachable and responds correctly
Broken - The link could not be reached or returned an error
You can use this information to identify and fix broken links before your readers encounter them. To edit a broken link, simply navigate to the page containing it and update the URL.
