What are Confluence's roles?

This article describes Confluence’s new role-based access control beta feature.

When roles are enabled in your Confluence instance, you can find them by going to Confluence settings > Security > Space permissions > Manage roles or to the Users page in Space settings.

If you don’t see those in your experience, your instance hasn’t been enabled for roles yet.

 

Roles make managing user access to spaces consistent, predictable, and scalable. Each role has a different set of individual permissions associated with it, giving you confidence in what each user can do.

You can also assign roles broadly to different classes of users like All Confluence users or All Confluence admins, regardless of group membership.

New permissions
The following permissions have been split away from the original Admin permission in the old experience to allow for the Manager role and, overall, additional levels of control.

Anyone who had the Admin permission before will still have these new permissions in the new experience.

No one will automatically have these new permissions if they didn’t have the old Admin permission.
