Index

Every space has its own independent set of permissions.

Space permissions can only be granted by a space administrator.

Permissions can be assigned to any Confluence user-group, to an individual user in the Confluence-User group, and to users in the Anonymous group.

Here are the different permissions that can be assigned at the space level:

  • View: user can view this space's content.

  • Pages: user can view the space's details, and its page and blog-posts.
    o Create - user may create and edit pages in this space.
    o Export - user may export pages in this space.
    o Restrict - user may apply page level permissions.
    o Remove - user may remove pages in this space.

  • Blog Posts:
    o Create - user may post blogs in this space.
    o Delete - user may remove blogs in this space.

  • Comments:
    o Create - user may make comments in this space.
    o Delete - user may remove comments from this space.

  • Attachments:
    o Create - user may add attachments in this space.
    o Delete - user may remove attachm\ents from this space.

  • Space:
    o Export - user may export content from this space.
    o Administer - user has administrative permissions over this space.

  • Mail: User may delete individual mail items.
Warning
If you misconfigure a space so that nobody has access to administer it any more, you will need to have someone in the confluence-administrators group fix the permissions for you.
