Confluence URLs do not work unless a user is signed into Confluence
Resolved
Users may have noticed that Confluence URLs (e.g. found in emails) do not work unless the user is already signed into Confluence.
If a user is not signed into confluence and they navigate the link, they are redirected to the default confluence home page (after being prompted for authentication). Navigating the link as second time directs the user to the intended destination.
We believe the issue is related to the recent update of the SSO add-in within Confluence. ITS is investigating the issue.
