Edit-rights on a page-tree within a restricted space

Thomas Schubert

Atlassian Confluence 5.9.7
---
We have a space for technical documentation, that only a group of administrators is enabled to see and edit.

Within this space we have page trees)* for several subprojects. Some of these page trees are to be view+edit-enabled for external users (contractors of us), who must only see and edit these special page trees within the otherwise for them invisible space.

We've tried to do this via page restrictions but as the external users do not see the whole space they don't see their sub page tree either.

What can we do to get what we intend?

Thank you,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,

you can't add permissions for single pages in a confluence space. It goes the other way round:

- All users can see the space

- All the pages that your external users are not allowed to see have to be restricted to your internal users.

But that's a hell of administration and I would not recommend that.
