contents A group $Γ$ has separable cohomology if the profinite completion map $ι\colon Γ\to \widehatΓ$ induces an isomorphism on cohomology with finite coefficient modules. In this article, cohomological separability is decided within the class of generalised Baumslag--Solitar groups, i.e. graphs of groups with infinite cyclic fibers. Equivalent conditions are given both explicitly in terms of the defining graph of groups and in terms of the induced topology on vertex groups. Restricted to the class of Baumslag--Solitar groups, we obtain a trichotomy of cohomological separability and cohomological dimension of the profinite completions. In particular, this yields examples of non-residually-finite one-relator groups which have separable cohomology, and examples which do not.
