There are two ways a new user can be added to Confluence:

Public Signup: Enabling public signup from the Administration Console allows users to sign themselves up to the site.

By Site Administrators : If you want to restrict your site to a select group of users, you may want to disable 'Public Signup'. In this instance, site administrators can add new users from the Administration Console.

To add a new user to Confluence from the Administration Console,

  1. Go to the 'Administration Console' and click on 'Manage Users' in the left panel.

  2. Click on the link 'Add new user' listed at the top of the page.

  3. In the form displayed, enter the user's details: username, password, name and email id.

  4. Click 'Create' to add the user.
