How to fetch data from Application Link in Forge App?

Hi all,
I am implementing a Forge app for Jira Cloud, and I would like to retrieve data from Confluence instances that are connected via Application Links.

In my Jira Cloud site, there are three Application Links:

  • One Confluence instance that shares the same domain as Jira

  • Two Confluence instances that are on different domains

With a Forge app, I can use requestConfluence to make requests to a Confluence instance that shares the same domain (with the app also installed in that Confluence site). https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/forge/apis-reference/fetch-api-product.requestconfluence/

However, I would also like to retrieve data from the other two Confluence instances that are linked to Jira but use different domains.

What technical approaches are available for this scenario?
Is it possible to reuse the existing Application Link authentication, or do I need to create and manage separate authentication tokens?

I also have concern about this :thinking:

To my knowledge this is not possible?

At least the last time I tried. There is no mechanism to get / use the application links as an app. I advocated for such a feature a few time, but so far there was not enough interest.
