A user is any individual who accesses Confluence.

New users are created by a site administrator via the Administration Console.

A site administrator can also group users together into user-groups for more convenient administration. This means that any security permissions you assign at the site, space and page levels can be assigned to a whole group. A user in one of these groups will automatically be granted all permissions granted to the group.

There are two special groups in Confluence:

  • Confluence-Administrators - This is a 'super-group' and a user from this group has permission to do anything in the site regardless of any other setting. Users in the confluence-administrators group are listed on the 'Contact Administrators' page that is linked from the footer throughout the site.
  • Confluence-Users - This is a 'default-group' of all new users. Permissions you assign to this group will be assigned to all new signed-up users of Confluence.

Anonymous-Users

Confluence treats all users who do not log in when they access Confluence as being 'Anonymous'. Administrators can assign permissions to this group separately.
