open a single page inside our space for edits

[Randy Roten]

We have a single page inside our space of many many pages, and we want that single page to be viewable and editable by persons outside our team.

Hi Randy, 

That will not be possible, unfortunately, as space is the parents and the page are child record. This means that if you want the page to be able to be view and edit, the user will need to have access to space itself. 

Of cause there is a workaround but it will be tedious.

1. Grand the user to space under the space tools(under left side of the page) > Permission for view access. 
2. Go to every page, and grant individual users the access they deserve(everyone in the team)

I found a feature request at the link below that address this issue in particular.

Kenny, thank you very kindly for taking the time to describe the operational complications arising from this request.

Another team member (props to Angie!) came up with creating an entirely separate space to manage the project requirements and setting page permissions as needed to accomplish our goals.  Our primary space is unaffected and the new space gets things done as needed.

Kenny, thank you for your efforts.
