      Issue Summary

      When you have a Confluence page and its title has a pipe on it, for example, MOVE-1345 | test link, Jira will not allow creating a link to that page in a Jira issue.

      This is reproducible on Data Center: not sure

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a page with a pipe character in its title.
      2. Link to a Jira issue using the "Link Confluence page" button.

      Expected Results

      The page gets linked properly.

      Actual Results

      An error in the UI is displayed "We're having trouble. Check your connection and try again".

      Error in the browser network console:

      Error message "addconfluencelink.error.url.invalid"

      Workaround

      Remove the | pipe from the title, link it to the issue and then rename it back using the pipe.
