If you permit user signup, a ‘Sign Up’ option will embark on the Confluence screens. The option will be on the log-in screen, and also in the header on public sites. People can select the option to create their own usernames on Confluence.
You can ban the signup to people whose e-mail addresses are within a given domain or domains. This is helpful if you desire to ensure that only people within your organization can add their own usernames.
You will still be ready to add or invite users manually, whether user signup is enabled or not.
You require Confluence Administrator or System Administrator permissions to change the signup options.
To set the user signup options:
Choose > User management
Select the User Signup Options tab
Choose Permit people to sign up to create their account
and followup on all other options.
