What is Confluence Secure Share?
It’s pretty common that help may arrive from unexpected places.
Your company might end up getting help from anywhere whether it be a small or a big company. But, the question arises how it will help your company if they don’t have access to your company’s projects. You have to share your confluence pages with them for them to help you out.
Confluence External Share/Confluence Secure Share allows you to share your Confluence pages to any external user, i.e a non confluence user, without making it public. In short one can share pages of Confluence to non-confluence users as well. The external shareable Confluence pages can be protected by password, and you can also set their expiry time. If a shared page has expired, it won’t be accessible to external users anymore. This way you can safely share confluence pages without the tension of the data being stolen or harmed.
Thus, your Confluence space is kept secure in the most protected way by sharing the pages without making the space public(anonymous). It permits you to make & share access links for your Confluence pages. Your end-users will be able to access the shared Confluence pages with these links without login.
