Question

Hello, I am writing a user manual for two different groups of stakeholders I would like to put on Confluence.

For Group A, I would like them to be able to see the whole manual (Confluence page)

For Group B, I would like them only to see a subset of the manual (various bits throughout the Confluence page).

Is there a way I can do this as a switch and just keep maintenance of one Confluence page?

i.e. have a switch at the top that says "For Group A press here, Group B press here" and that then shows them the relevant part (all or subset) of the manual? There is no security concern if someone selects the wrong Group, just more irrelevant stuff for them to read through.

Thanks.

You can't restrict content within pages but can at the page level. Maybe you could structure the content to be restricted on pages so that you can restrict the permissions on those pages.

Hey @Brett McLindin,

The use case you are describing is pretty much exactly why we created our app Variants for Scroll Documents. Via page labels, it allows you to define what pages should be available in what variant. And on a content level you can make use of the Scroll Conditional Content Macro to define what content should be visible in what variant.

If are not Cloud but on Data Center you'll find similar functionality in Scroll Versions.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Sven
