Can Anonymous page still be kept private within the organization?

Question

Hi,

I understand that enabling Anonymous and making a page anonymous makes it viewable by anyone without login. I assume this implies that if anyone on internet also gets this link they can view the page.

Is there any way to share a page within organization only where anyone without confluence login can see the page, but not anyone on the internet?

Note we use cloud version of confluence

Thanks,

SK

There is one thing you could do - enable "public access to pages".  This lets you nominate a page and send it to people.  But, yes, anyone on the internet can see these pages, albeit the url is a bit more obscure than a plain one.

But, it's incompatible with anonymous access, so turn this on, and your options for anonymous access all go away.

Check out https://confluence.atlassian.com/ge/public-links-979425312.html to see if that might be worth swapping to instead of "can make bits of my space anonymously accessible"

In a word, no. That is what anon means. If you were running server, you could put your server behind a firewall, so only authenticated users on  your network could access it. For Cloud, no such option exists.
