Restrict the Web Sites that Use Jive Anywhere

You can provide a list of sites where Jive Anywhere exclusively works (an inclusion list) or a list of sites where you want Jive Anywhere to be unavailable (an exclusion list).

As of Extended API 2.0 and higher, inclusion and exclusion lists can be created in the Jive Anywhere page in the Admin Console. If you are using the Extended API 1.0 version, you can create these list by using the system property created for them.

Using Extended API 2.0 Plugin

The inclusion/exclusion list of sites that use Jive Anywhere are controlled by a list that you enter in the Jive Anywhere Admin Console page.

Fastpath: Admin Console: System > Settings > Jive Anywhere

To include or exclude sites that use Jive Anywhere:

  1. Click the Restricted Sites tab.
  2. Type the list of sites, using a comma to separate them.
  3. Select Inclusion or Exclusion depending on which list you're creating.
  4. Click Submit.

Using Extended API 1.0 Plugin

inclusion and exclusion lists can be created by using the system property created for them. The inclusion/exclusion list of sites that use Jive Anywhere are controlled with two Jive system properties: extended_apis.jiveanywhere.is_inclusion and extended_apis.jiveanywhere.restriction_list. Use the following steps to access and configure these properties.

Fastpath: Admin Console: System > Management > System Properties

To include or exclude sites that use Jive Anywhere:

  1. Scroll down to the Add a New Property section.
  2. Enter extended_apis.jiveanywhere.is_inclusion in the Property Name field.
  3. Set the Property Value to False for an exclusion list or True for an inclusion list.
  4. Click Save Property.
  5. Add the web site list by adding another property with that information:
    1. Enter extended_apis.jiveanywhere.restriction_list in the Property Name field.
    2. In the Property Value field, type the list of web site URLs to include or exclude from using Jive Anywhere. Separate the web site URLs using a semicolon. For example, you might type: www.jivesoftware.com; www.yourwebsite.com
      Note: Make sure you don't use "http://" part of the URL in the Property Value field.
    3. Click Save Property.
