As described in the official documentation, there's no "centralized" information about the notifications of the public links being created.

1. Select your profile avatar in the top right of the top nav.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select Email in the sidenav.
4. Select Edit.
5. Uncheck Notify me when someone allows the use of public links on this site, and/or uncheck Notify me when someone turns on a public link.
How space admins stay notified
As a space admin, you’ll be notified whenever someone allows public links in your space (changes the space toggle) and whenever anyone turns on a public link in your space.To stop receiving public links notifications as a space admin:
1. Select your profile avatar in the top right of the top nav.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select Email in the sidenav.
4. Select Edit.
5. Uncheck Notify me when someone allows the use of public links in my spaces, and/or uncheck Notify me when someone turns on a public link in my space.
Currently, Confluence Cloud notifies admins of public link activities through individual settings, lacking a centralized dashboard for a comprehensive overview. This setup can potentially lead to oversight and fragmented security management.
Proposal:
Introduce a centralized notification option for site admins to monitor and control public link notifications more efficiently. This would enhance security and provide admins with a holistic view of public link activities across the site, improving oversight and management.
Benefits:
- Streamlined administration and oversight
- Enhanced security through centralized control
- Improved compliance with security policies
Implementing a centralized notification system would simplify the management of public links, making it safer and more user-friendly for admins.
