Content and structure items
Most sites consist of a mix of these content and structure items:
A Refined Page is a customizable landing page. Although it doesn’t feature a specific Confluence space, Jira Software project or JSM project itself, you can let it show content from spaces and projects that are already added in the site structure. You can group items under the Refined Page to create a drop-down list in the navigation menu.
Menu folders also let you create drop-down lists in the navigation menu. As opposed to a Refined Page, a menu folder doesn’t have a landing page.
When you add a Confluence space, you add all its pages and blog posts to the site. You can feature them on customizable landing pages to help users navigate the space’s content.
When you add a JSM project, you create a customizable landing page for the project. Users can create and view requests on this page.
When you add a Jira project, you create a customizable landing page for the project. Users can create and view issues on this page. Note that due to maintenance, it’s temporarily not possible for customers whose accounts were created after 20 August 2023 to add Jira projects to Refined sites.
Links let you direct users to any page you want, on or off your site, straight from your site’s navigation menu.
Add items to your site
Click the + Add space or project button to choose spaces and projects from your linked Confluence/JSM instance.
Click the + Add other item button to add a Refined Page, menu folder, or link.
Shape the navigation menu
The content you add will automatically appear in your site’s navigation menu. By dragging and dropping items, you can group them to create drop-downs in the navigation menu. You can also organize items into folders, and add links to other sites as menu items. You can even exclude certain items from the navigation menu if you want.

Edit an item’s settings
Click the item’s three dots > Settings.
Edit an item’s view permissions
View permissions let you decide who can see specific Refined Pages, links and menu folders. This helps you tailor the site to different types of users.
Click the item’s three dots > Permissions.
Choose who can see the item. The same permissions apply to items grouped under it, unless those items have more restrictive permissions.. See examples in the image below.
All users. Default setting, no restrictions applied.
Only logged-in users. The item shows a lock icon in the site structure.
You can even limit access to specific Atlassian user groups. You need to be an Atlassian administrator to see or edit user groups.
Only users who aren’t logged in. The item shows a lock icon in the site structure.
Interactions with other permissions
You can also set general site access permissions and granular permissions on specific content on landing pages of Refined pages, Confluence spaces, Jira projects, and JSM projects.
All types of permissions are closely related and may impact each other. For example, a user who doesn’t have access to a landing page still won’t be able to see a section that’s set to be Accessible to anyone.
Edit an item’s customizable page
Click the item’s three dots > Edit page.
Refined Pages, Confluence spaces, Jira projects and JSM projects all have a customizable page. A space’s customizable page can be disabled.
Delete an item
Click the item’s cogwheel > Delete.
In the popup that appears, click the Delete button to confirm your action.
When you delete a Refined Page, Confluence space, Jira project or JSM project from your site, you lose the changes you made to its customizable page. If you want to use the layout of that page again in the future, we recommend exporting it in the Page Builder before deleting the item from the site structure. This way, you can import it to another customizable page later.
View an item on your Refined site
To go to the customizable landing page of a Refined Page, Confluence space, Jira project or JSM project hover your cursor over the item and click the arrow that appears. The page opens in a new tab.
