Restricting access to Zendesk community topics
Can I restrict access to my Zendesk community?
While you can't restrict access to the entire Zendesk community, you can limit access to specific topics using user segments. This means anyone can access the community, but visibility of certain topics can be controlled.
Unfortunately, there's no option to restrict the entire community to a specific user segment. For more details on applying user segments, refer to the original documentation.
