We are working on a company internal knowledge base. Therefor we need to give access to the knowledge base on terminals with automatic logins and kiosk PCs. These do not have Email access. Complete public access is not an option. How do we do this?

Hello @Mathias Fuhge 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

You said the devices have "automatic logins". Does that mean you have set them up in some manner that they are actually connecting via a known Atlassian Cloud user account?

If so, then you can make those logins Confluence Guests, and they will be able to access the content of a single space without consuming a license.

The number of Guests you are allowed to have is 5 times the number of Confluence User Licenses.

 

If the devices do not use some sort of Atlassian Cloud login, one way I can think of that you could do that what you want without allowing full public anonymous access is to the specified Confluence space(s) is to implement the Allow List option in Security, but that is available only for Premium and Enterprise plans.

Another way would be to consider publishing the content to a web site that you host where you can use your network configuration to limit the access.
