Site Bookmarks
Introduction
The Site Bookmarks feature enables Site Administrators to configure a set of Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) to be available to all Flywheel site users.
Common use cases include linking to an organization’s internal Information Technology (IT) support resources or documentation for the organization’s policies/procedures governing the use of the site.
When a user clicks on a bookmark, the associated URL will open in a new tab in the same browser window.
Permissions
Only Site Administrators may add, modify, rearrange, and delete bookmarks.

Usage Considerations

- Bookmark names are limited to 64 characters
- This feature is optimized for use cases of 5 or fewer bookmarks, though configuring more is possible
