Restricting 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).

Fastpath

Admin Console: System > Settings > Jive Anywhere

Extended APIs allow community administrators to create inclusion and exclusion lists in the Jive Anywhere Admin Console page. This functionality is available for version 2.0 and later.

If you are using the Extended API 1.0 version, you can create these lists by using system properties created for them, as describe in Using the Extended APIs 1.0 Plugin.

Configuring Extended APIs 2.0 and Higher Plugin​

The inclusion and exclusion lists of sites that Jive Anywhere is controlled by a list which you enter in the Jive Admin Console.

To include or exclude sites that use Jive Anywhere:

  1. In the Admin Console, go to System > Settings > Jive Anywhere, then open the Options tab.

  2. Under Restricted Domain List, type the list of sites, using a comma to separate them. For example, you might type: www.jivesoftware.com, www.yourwebsite.com.

    Note: You must not use the "http://" part of the URL in the Property Value field.

  3. Under List type, select Inclusion or Exclusion depending on which list you're creating.

  4. Click Submit.

Using the Extended APIs 1.0 Plugin ​

You can create inclusion and exclusion lists using two system properties:

extended_apis.jiveanywhere.is_inclusion : Use this property to specify which web sites can use Jive Anywhere.

extended_apis.jiveanywhere.restriction_list : Use this property to restrict Jive Anywhere's access to certain web sites. For example, you may want remove Jive Anywhere from your community pages because there's no reason to create a community discussion about a community discussion.

Use the following steps to access and configure these properties.

Fastpath

Admin Console: System > Management > System Properties

  1. Scroll down to the Add a New Property section.
