I am interested in restricting access to some of our pages in our Confluence Knowledge Base by group. Is this possible?

Hi Tracy, G'day!
Yes, it is possible :) 

Please check if those pages help you:
Page restrictions 
Confluence groups 
Permissions and restrictions 

Short guide:

  1. Create a group at Global configuration > Users & Security > Groups
  2. Add members to the group
  3. Create a page
  4. Click on the Restrictions  icon at the top of the page
  5. Add/Remove members or groups

PS: It may vary a little depending on the Confluence version.

 

Hope it helps :) 

Have a nice day!

We have Confluence Server v 7.12.1. I am an Admin but not a super admin. Where do I find Global Configuration?

Hi Tracy!

Sorry for the typo, I mean General Configuration.


You can access it from the cog icon next to your user avatar, at the top right of the page:

You must be a member of the confluence-administrators group or any group with the Confluence administrator permission or have the Confluence administrator permission assigned to you under General configuration > Global permissions.
