Extension context

This module now has support for UI Kit 2 (preview) for faster user experiences and to access additional React features.

For more information on all the supported modules, see the Supported products and their modules section.

The confluence:contentAction module adds a menu item to the more actions (•••) menu for pages and blogs. When the menu item is clicked, the module’s function renders a modal dialog.

For UI Kit 1, see the ContentAction component documentation for more information.

On apps that use Custom UI, module content is displayed inside a special Forge iframe which has the sandbox attribute configured. This means that HTML links (for example, <a href="https://domain.tld/path">...</a>) in this iframe won't be clickable. To make them clickable, use the router.navigate API from the @forge/bridge package.
