Guides → Configure Custom Links

Context

This content applies to On-Premises installations only. For Cloud clusters, contact the Support team.

Overview

Starting with the 2025.7 release, Incorta has introduced a new feature that allows CMC administrators to add a list of custom links to the navigation pane, providing quick access to your most important resources. Each link can be configured to open either in a new browser tab (external) or within the Incorta platform workspace (internal).

The Other Links list appears in the navigation pane after at least one link has been added. Internal links are listed first, followed by external links, and they are ordered as they appear in the Cluster Management Console (CMC).

Incorta Labs Features

Other Links is an Incorta Labs feature. Labs features are experimental and can be either promoted to a product feature or deprecated without notice.

Follow these steps to add custom links to the navigation pane:

  1. Navigate to CMC > Clusters > <your_cluster> > Cluster Configurations > Tenant Configurations > Incorta Labs.

  2. In the Other Links section, add your links as a line-separated list.

  3. For each link, provide the following details, separated by commas:

    • Link label: The display name for the link
    • URL: The complete web address for the link
    • Link target: Where to open the link
      • out: Opens the link in a new browser tab (This is the default if no target is specified.)
      • in: Opens the link as embedded content in the Incorta platform workspace

    Example:

    Docs,https://docs.incorta.com,in
    Reports,https://www.mycompany.com/reports/main-dashboard,out
  4. Select Save.

Important
  • You can add external links to open trusted or untrusted domains. However, you must whitelist each domain you want to embed within the Incorta platform workspace.
  • Links to pages or resources within the same or different clusters (a dashboard link, for example) must be configured as external links (out).
  • Incorta does not validate the links configured in the CMC. It is your responsibility to ensure the accuracy of each URL.

Whitelist external domains

To securely display embedded content from external domains (i.e., open them as internal links), you must whitelist each domain in your Incorta On-Premises environment.

  1. Navigate to /IncortaAnalytics/IncortaNode/ and open the node.properties file for editing.
  2. Add the following for each domain you want to whitelist:
    content.security.allow-list.script.ext=<domainURL>
    content.security.allow-list.connect.ext=<domainURL>
    content.security.allow-list.style.ext=<domainURL>
    content.security.allow-list.frame.ext=<domainURL>
    content.security.allow-list.base-uri=<domainURL>
    content.security.allow-list.font.ext=<domainURL>
    content.security.allow-list.media.ext=<domainURL>
  3. Replace <domainURL> with the full URL of the domain you are whitelisting, and then save your changes.
  4. Restart the Analytics service.
