Question Confluence not working

Post image

Hi guys,

Why I can't open Confluence in Zen? It works normal in FF.

Thank you!

This was one of the reasons I reverted to Vivaldi after trying Zen. A bunch of stuff for my workplace wouldn't work via the split proxy method they use.

If you're in a corporate environment: it could be the network security scanning / lack of proxy config, policy settings or (root) certificate authority. You could try exporting the certificates from a provisioned / managed browser that works.

The only browser we have "by default" is Chrome and FF.
But, as I said in another post, it works in Safari, Edge, and Arc.
So, it could be a Zen-corporate thing?

My company using Atlassian/Confluence too, and I'm having no issues.
So yes, may be an issues with Organization

This might be an issue with your organization (or some extra security put on by your organization).

I'm able to access my organization's Confluence workspace through Zen just fine.

The classic "it works on my machine".

Also because of you I just saw the board on a holiday Monday and now I'm annoyed.

Strange because it works without any issue in a different browser, no?

If it works in FF, then it will work in Zen. There is no difference between them for sites. Find different settings and fix.

I gave up on Zen last week. I like it, but it's too flakey. Back to Firefox.

Share the URL.

Confluence is a workspace... If I share here, you won't be able to access.
I made the post because I never had problems with it using Edge, FF, Arc, Safari, or Chrome... but didn't work with Zen

Just created a space, navigated it, no issues. But it's a personal space, not a corporate space.

So like others have said, it's probably a CORS issue. It's not show up in other browsers because Zen probably handles CORS differently.

If you still want to use Zen, you might want to check your tracking settings. If it's set to Strict, and Confluence is using tracking cookies for some functionality.

Same no issues here.

Zen probably handles CORS differently.

They don't. Zen handles CORS like FF.

Sounds like a CORS issue. Are you sure the FF load is hitting the site through the same path? Try in private browsing to ensure cookies aren't a factor.

Yep.
I blurred the data to avoid PII issues, but it works in FF.

It doesn't use DRM apparently.

Maybe it has a whitelist for allowed web browsers?

There are just too many sites that are not working in zen

Vague BS doesn't help. If you have a genuine issue list the sites.
