How to handle Teams and People visibility in Atlassian Home

[Patrick Alexander]

Hello everyone,

I’ve been looking into the visibility settings for Teams and People in Atlassian Home and would like to hear how others are dealing with this topic. Based on my research, here’s what I’ve found so far:

1. Teams:

   • There doesn’t seem to be a way to restrict who can see a Team.
   • The Team name and Team members are visible to everyone in the organization.

2. People:

   • Users can set visibility restrictions in their profiles, but first and last names (Full name) still appear for others to see.
   • Also the user needs to know about the behavior and the option to limit the visibility by their own

We work with multiple customers in our system, so this unrestricted visibility is far from ideal. Additionally, we use an Enterprise environment with multiple connected sites, and the Teams and People lists appear to pull data from all systems within the enterprise organization.

This creates several challenges for us:

• Customer names and contacts might unintentionally become visible across the organization.
• It’s unclear how to manage or restrict this visibility across multiple sites effectively.

How are you managing this issue in your organization?

• Have you found any workarounds or best practices to control the visibility of Teams or People?
• Are you aware of any upcoming changes in Atlassian’s roadmap related to this?

Looking forward to hearing your insights!

Best regards,

Patrick
