Creating filter views by user

Question

Hello.

We are using confluence to create a knowledge base for one department with 5 distinct roles.  Is there a way to give everyone access to all pages, but then also give them the ability to filter down the content to their specific role?  This would narrow the large amount of content down to their specific job function for daily use.

Thanks! Carrie

Hey,

Its enough if 1 person set this up, and others can view it (even without edit permission). This person can be a simple user, don't need to be an admin either.

As an admin or page owner, you can even save the "status of openness", which means you can close subtrees, open panels, enable/disable unread changes, then press save this view - then the exact view will be saved for everyone!

So i would recommend inserting the macro on a page, and prepare the view for your target audience.

It can be set up completeley in few minutes :)

Regards,

Balazs

Thank you!  This seems like it would help.

For a company of 300 people, would we have to have 300 users if we wanted them to see this dashboard OR is the users just for Admins to set-up these pages?
