Hi all,
I am trying to create user with the read only permissions. Similar to an anonymous user, but with login credentials.
How can i do that??
Create a standard normal user, then don't put them in any groups or space permissions that give them any access other than reading pages.
Hello Nic,
I followed your suggestion but, now user doesn't have permission to access confluence.
What should i do for it.??
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
You need to include them in a group that has the "can log in" global permission.
I suspect you've run into the "default settings problem". The default in Confluence (and similarly in JIRA for that matter) is to have a group called confluence-users. This group has "can log in", which is absolutely fine, but then the (bad) design is to use that group generally to allow access to spaces as well, as a default.
This means you have three options
Note that however you do this, you will need to add the user to the "see space" permissions.
