Best practices for sharing Confluence pages
Sharing your pages is important for making information accessible to everyone - but it’s worth remembering some important rules:
- Only share with those you need to: Your company Confluence instance is likely to be full of sensitive information. Remember to check what’s on your page before sharing it, and make sure only those that need to see the information have access to the page.
- Give clear context: Add a message when sharing your page, or add extra context wherever you include its link. This helps users to better understand the information you’ve shared and ensure it doesn’t get missed.
- Regularly update shared content: If you’ve shared pages that lots of users will be looking at, such as pages in a knowledge base, it’s important to keep the information relevant and up-to-date. This limits misinformation and ensures everyone is on the same page.
