Adjust page builder configuration (optional)

Add your custom domain
Using a custom domain further aligns your Refined site with your brand, and makes your Refined site easier to access and remember for your end users. You can connect a custom domain of your choice on each Refined site you migrate to cloud.

Set up site content permissions
Properly configured permissions are crucial for site security and appropriate content access. Here is a rundown of which kind of permission settings you can control on cloud:
Permission type | Let you control |
|---|---|
Who can visit your site. | |
Who can see specific Refined Pages, links and menu folders. | |
Landing pages of Refined pages, Confluence spaces, Jira projects, and JSM projects. | Who can see specific parts of a landing page. |
Set up administrator permissions
By default, all your organization's Confluence administrators have global administrator rights in the entire Refined Sites app. You can also give global administrator rights to other users in your organization, by making them Refined Administrators. And on an even more granular level, site administrators can manage a specific Refined site.

Onboard users to the new cloud environment
Refined on cloud doesn’t replace native Atlassian, but functions parallel to it. The launch of your new cloud site offers an opportunity to engage internal and external users alike.
End-users
Due to the parallel setup on cloud, you’ll be able to reach content through multiple URLs: to native Confluence and to your Refined sites. Make sure that end-users only see your Refined sites, by:
Redirecting your server/data center site URLs to the new Refined sites URLs.
Adding a header banner on native Confluence spaces to guide users to the Refined site. This is added in Space permissions → Look and Feel → Page Layout on the Confluence Space settings
Only sharing the site URL in your communication, e.g. your website, social media, etc.
Note that you don’t need to add links from the Refined sites to your Confluence pages: internal links work on your Refined sites and keep users on the Refined site.
Content creators
The parallel cloud setup also means that the content creation experience is different from server/data center. To prepare your content creators for this new way of working, they can read this documentation article or watch this video on the topic:

Additionally, it’s important that content creators understand which macros are supported and how to use them effectively to guarantee content renders correctly on Refined. They can read this documentation article or watch the following video:
