dear community,

We are developing an application that integrates with Confluence via the REST API. Our use case involves creating pages programmatically within a public/shared Confluence space but restricting the visibility of each newly-created page to only a specific user.

Could you please confirm:

  • Is there an available REST API endpoint or functionality that allows setting page-level visibility permissions within a public space, limiting access to just one user?
  • If yes, could you provide documentation, specific endpoints, permission requirements, or any example requests?
  • If no direct API support exists, is there an alternative best-practice you recommend for programmatically achieving this behavior?

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Hello @Ilef Chebil 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

You can find the documentation for the Confluence Cloud page restrictions API here:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/api-group-content-restrictions/

Review that documentation for details on permission requirements and examples.
