Manage access to multiple pages at once by using the action Bulk restrict.

Please note, that this action is not available for Confluence instances using a Free plan, since there is no restriction management at all.



Select the Bulk restrict action.

Select users or groups in the view dropdown to which you want to restrict the view rights of the pages.

Please note, that it is not possible to restrict the viewing rights without adding at least one user/group to the editing part. In case no one is selected, the current user is added automatically.

Select users or groups in the edit dropdown to which you want to restrict the edit rights of the pages.

Click on Save.


Please note:

  • By not selecting any users or groups from the dropdown, the selected pages become public again.
  • Each restricted page is highlighted with a tooltip that displays, upon hovering, the users or groups to whom the page is restricted.
  • If multiple pages with different access rights are selected, the drop-down lists (View/Edit) will show the combined restrictions of all selected pages.
  • When applying restrictions, the current user is always included and added to the list due to Confluence's own behaviour.
