Remove group to cannot view “People”

  1. Hover to the group you want to remove out of the white list, click to the “cross” icon

When Confluence is in read-only mode, CBPP is also in read-only mode. This means that the app is not configurable until Confluence is taken out of read-only mode.

The Confluence Administrators always have the permission to view the “People Directory” page. You don’t need to add that group to White List
