My business partner and I have sensitive documents that only we should have access to in Confluence.
We have directors who need the ability to perform admin tasks in Confluence, like managing global templates.
As I understand it, only "Confluence Admins" can manage global templates -- but this would also allow them to see any page in any space.
Is there a workaround?
Ok, great. I guess I wasn't clear about which default "admin" group I was talking about.
I created a test user and assigned them to the "administrators" group and they seem to have basic admin access (editing global templates, etc.) and verified that they do not have access to a particular space which has been restricted to another custom group.
If someone has Confluence-Admin permissions, they have full control of your site, so there is no way to hide something from them in a way that they could not circumvent if they wanted to.
Thanks,

Just to be clear, the only way to give someone the ability to manage global templates is to give them full control/access to the wiki?

I know this question is very dated but is there a way to block spaces in Confluence Cloud from site admins without the site admin being able to add themselves to the space?

Hi Aaron,
If you restrict some pages, by right normal Admin wouldn't be able to view the page that you restricted. Since the Admin in OnDemand version is not really a System Admin of the system, therefore I think this could be done. Please bear in mind that you can't hide any content from users that is inside 'confluence-administrators' group as per this documentation. However this group does not apply in OnDemand.
Hope it helps.

Perhaps it has changed since this question was asked, but i'm on confluence 5.8.14 and I believe I have confirmed that personal spaces can in fact be hidden from everyone.

Hi, @Geoff Wilson !
I did as you described, but checking under the Administrator test account - I still see the space and its pages.
Magic?)
