Can we use salesforce profiles to control confluence access?

[Ashwini Nagaraj]

Hi,

  Can you tell me if we can control the confluence access via salesforce profiles?

Thanks in advance!!

No, because they're not exposed in a useful way as a user directory.  (Unlike the other way around, where with a bit of code, you could in theory use Confluence's groups to control Salesforce access.  Not that I would bother, if you want shared access control, you should move both systems to use an external identity tool)

@Nic Brough _Adaptavist_ Thank you... Can you give me more details.

Eg: there is a contract and a related document saved in confluence and user need to get the access on contract and its document based on the account of the contract.  Can this be achieved?

[Nic Brough _Adaptavist_]

Yes, give them permission to "access" the pages that make up the contract and docs.

I'm not sure what you want more detail on, so I'm going to guess "external directories" - see https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/configuring-user-directories-229838212.html for the confluence side.  I don't know Salesforce well enough to tell you where to look to configure external users in that.
