Global Groups Overview

There are two special default groups in Confluence:

1. Confluence-Administrators: This is a 'super-group' of users who can access the 'Administration Console' from which site-wide administration is performed.
   
   A user from this group has permission to do anything in the site regardless of any other setting.
   
   
2. Confluence-Users: This is a default group of all new users. Permissions you assign to this group will be assigned to all new signed-up users of Confluence.

Other user-groups : A site administrator can also group users together into user-groups for more convenient administration. Once created, user-groups become available at the space and page levels to allow for flexible permissioning. A user in one of these groups will automatically be granted all permissions granted to the group.

Anonymous-Users : Confluence treats all users who do not log in when they access Confluence as being 'Anonymous'. Enabling anonymous 'Use permission' allows non-registered users to browse pages and spaces in Confluence.
