Viewing a Confluence Space and not Needing to Occupy A Seat

Callum Todd_jrdfql

I would like to enable various department's in my business to view a confluence space and its content only. (basically a wiki) where only management (confluence licence'd users) can edit.

However this has only proven possible when assigning licences to all users that need view such spaces. Will i need to licence all these users with a confluence licence both editors and viewers?

Is there a way to give users viewing ability without having to licence each user?

Thanking the Atlassian Community

Yes.  If you enable the global flag "allow anonymous access", you will then be able to grant the group "Anonymous users" access in each separate space's permission settings.

People hitting pages in a space which allows anonymous read will not need to log in to see them, and hence won't occupy a seat.

But be aware this means "the world and it's dog" - absolutely anyone roaming the internet can see it.  Do not grant any form of "write" to anonymous - you will get spammed!
