Restrictions in public confluence

Question

Hi,

we are using confluence as an internal knowledge base.

We would like to start using it also externally for our clients, but since there might be some sensitive data exposed, we would like to apply some sort of authentication for the anonymous users accessing the public pages.

Is there a possibility to create restrictions like JWT SSO?

Hi,

thank you for your reply, I know it is possible to allow anonymous users to access the pages.

My question is if it is possible to authenticate upon accessing the public page, so only the users logged in our application (not confluence) are able to see the published pages. Basically, so the public access is restricted to specific users outside of confluence.

Monika,

If you want to give the public access while still maintaining internal use, you can enable anonymous access.
