User picker on Confluence page

[Customer]

We have about 90k users in our AD which is connected to Confluence.

As I know it's possible to @mention only users which are in group Confluence-users.

Is it possible to place user picker (like in Jira) on page, where I can start typing user's name and select user from suggest even if this user doesn't have access to Confluence?

Maybe I can make user macro.

Please, help.

Hello there,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to have you.

We had a feature request in the past to be able to mention unlicensed users, but it has been closed as we don't intend to include this as a feature in the near future:

• CONFSERVER-44377 Able to mention or search users without can use permission

There is another feature request below to be able to show or hide unlicensed users:

• CONFSERVER-41178 Add option to control whether unlicensed users are hidden

In the meantime, the only way to show a user from Jira would be including the user-related field in the Jira Issues Macro.

Let me know if you have any questions about that.

Regards,

Shannon
