Description
NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding suggestion.
Requirement:
Depending on group membership users may (or may not) see users in their own or in other groups in the People Directory.
Scenario example:
- Internal people should be able to see all users (from their department and/or project group) as well as all customers that they are responsible for / ideally grouped per company/department/...
- External users (customers) from company XYZ should be able to see (some) internal users (i.e. those responsible for their project), in addition all users from their own organization (members in the group XYZ) and possibly some users from another company that is utilizing the same product.
Above could be solved by smart grouping of people, provided that the access to the People Directory is "better" configurable.
Note: The "Shared Mode" setting in the General Configuration does not solve the issue - this is an all-or-nothing approach, it would be highly desirable to have a fine-grained controlled access to the People Directory in one of the future Confluence releases.

| Hi All, We have completed rolling out the Single-Space Guest experience in Beta to all our Standard, Premium and Enterprise customers. You can bring contractors, vendors, and partners securely into Confluence! Organization admins will be able invite up to 5 free guests for each paid user on their site! Each guest is allowed access to one space at a time, and they will not have access to the People Directory. Read more on our Atlassian Community post and our support articles: article 1: how to get set up and article 2: What guests can and can't do. Happy collaborating, Nidhi Product Manager, Confluence |
Thank you for your patience and being so vocal with regards to availability of this feature in Confluence Cloud. We acknowledge that many of you are looking to bring your customers and other external users into your Confluence site and therefore want tighter control over which users can browse the people directory.
I'm happy to share that we've put this suggestion on our roadmap and are planning to address it in the next 12 months.
We will keep you updated on the progress and timelines when the feature is going to be delivered.
Thanks again for your patience.
Best,
Hilary Dubin
Product Manager, Confluence Cloud|
