We would like to grant "Anonymous access" to Knowledge Base articles. Is geoblocking for selected countries possible?

Hello @Reinhard.Hessler and welcome.

Isn't geoblocking easy to circumvent these days? :) Once the space is anonymous, anyone can access it.

But to not sound like Captain Obvious... here's an idea.

Scroll Viewport app can make a public KB site, on your own domain) from a private (as in not anonymous) Confluence space.

It can also create a site, from the same private space, that you can control access to with your SSO setup. We do :) 

I'm not an SSO expert but I wonder.... if it would be possible to use your SSO tool to geo-control access to your Viewport site. 

That way, your Confluence remains private, selected content is in the Viewport site and you control access via your SSO tools.

Just an idea ;)

Hi @Reinhard.Hessler 

Not natively as far as I know.

Depending on the need, IP allowlists might help, but it's not quite the same functionality.
