External collaboration for Confluence free plan users

[Romero Agbovon]

Hi Team,
I understand that currently, free plan users cannot add people from outside their organisations to spaces. However, can it go the other way around and free plan users be added to external premium users spaces, and still be assigned access restrictions to view and edit?

@Romero Agbovon Welcome to the Atlassian Community

If you invite someone outside your organization to your space and you have premium they will be able to be added to the space and do whatever you set them up to do.  In this case their account gets a premium license on your instance.  If their account is associated with another instance that is free then they will also have a free license on that instance.

That's great if i understand well! They shouldn't need to upgrade but still could interact on our space as we set them up to.
That's great news.
Thanks Brant
