Hey mcornelison,

The FortiGate has to have some way of identifying the user - a fixed IP, for example, or authentication.

You can then create a policy for that specific IP and/or user and put it at the top of the policy list to allow access to the blocked webfilter categories.

Exempting WITHIN the same policies that also block all other users is a bit tricky, you'd have to set webfilter action to authenticate instead of block, and then everyone would get a login screen instead of a blocked message.

If you'd like more details on either option (policy based on specific user or specific IP) let us know.

Cheers,

Debbie

Hi,

You can create a firewall policy with source as user and destination as fqdn for that website. or 

you can allow from web filter static url filter, you can exempt from there.

Please refer to this article to configure this:- https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-Using-a-static-URL-filter-feature-to-allow-block/ta-p/193086
