Structure content with Nested Pages

Nested Pages allows you to create a hierarchical structure for your content, helping you organize documentation logically and improve navigation for your team. This feature enables you to build robust knowledge architecture with parent and child pages, similar to folders and files.

Nested pages are available in two contexts:

  • Wiki Pages (Workspace level)
  • Project Pages (Project level)

Create nested pages

While editing any page, type /page to insert a new page reference. Name your new page and it will automatically be created as a child of the current page. Page command

Wiki Pages offer an additional ways to create nested pages. Click the + icon that appears next to any page name. This creates a new page nested under the selected parent. Nested page on the wiki sidebar

Move pages between levels

Both Wiki Pages and Project Pages support reorganizing your page hierarchy.

To promote a nested page to a higher level, drag it to the desired position in the hierarchy. To demote a page to become nested under another, drag it under the new parent.

Move nested pages

  • Your page hierarchy is displayed with visual indentation showing the nesting structure (in the sidebar for Wiki, or in the Pages section for project pages).
  • Expand or collapse parent pages using the ▶ arrow to show or hide nested pages.
  • Breadcrumbs appear at the top of each page showing the full path.
  • Click any page in the breadcrumb trail to navigate to that level. This provides context about where you are in the documentation hierarchy.

Visibility and access control

Public vs private pages

  • Public pages are visible to anyone with Admin/Member access to your Workspace (for Wiki Pages) or Project (for Project Pages).
  • Private pages are only visible to you and the Workspace Admins (for Wiki Pages) or Project Admins (for Project Pages).
  • You can nest private pages under public pages for controlled access to sensitive information.
  • A private nested page is not visible to users who only have access to the public parent.

Visibility inheritance

  • Nested pages do not automatically inherit the visibility settings of their parent.
  • Each page can have its own visibility settings, allowing for flexible access control.
  • Users without access to a parent page will not see any nested pages, regardless of the nested pages' individual visibility settings.

Archiving and deletion

  • When you archive a parent page, all nested pages under it will also be archived. This helps maintain the integrity of related content.
  • Archived pages can be restored from the Archived section.
  • Deleting a parent page prompts a warning about nested content. You can choose to:
    • Delete only the parent page and move nested pages up one level.
    • Delete the parent and all nested content permanently.
