Permissions and Spaces Setup Issue.

I created a space as an administrator, but something isn’t working:

  • Users cannot see draft minutes, even when I share the link with them.
  • I cannot see the minutes they have created.

I think this might be because I accidentally created two spaces. Users have access to both, and I’m not sure if this is affecting the permissions. One of the spaces seems inactive; should I delete it?

I need help with initial permission settings or guidance on deleting the unused space.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi @Ascen García I will add that creating a 'Live doc' may be a better match for your team than the traditional page, since Live docs don't have the draft/publish distinction, but rather are always in collaborative edit (think Google doc). This will solve the problem of sharing and collaborating on a page that hasn't yet been published.

If you later need to have the publish/draft distinction (say for tracking changes), you can always convert the page.

Hi @Ascen García 

Draft pages are not published so they can't be seen by other users, as the page is not indexed.

You could also re-name the space, but to delete a space, go into the space settings in Confluence.

@Ascen García When the person that you share the draft page with (by sending them the link) opens the page, I believe they need to select Edit to see the content, since it hasn't been published yet.
