List all space administrators

francis

Hi,

We are upgrading a confluence instance, and we would like to send all space administrators a mail asking them to validate the result on the staging server.

I'm wondering if there is somewhere a simple macro / plugin which provides this functionality.

Hey Francis,

I found a way to get all space administrators for all spaces. Added it as a KB article here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFKB/How+Do+I+View+a+List+of+All+Space+Administrators+for+All+Spaces

Modified the source from the link given by Diallo earlier. What I do notice though, is that the permissionHelper seems to be affected by this bug: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-18104

Which means that the permission checks via Velocity might not be accurate (I noticed that it seems to only fetch users that are members of confluence-administrators, regardless of individual permissions set in the space's permissions).

Anyway, do give it a try!

I just came accross this discussion regarding this concern. Hope that helps.

That's cool. I need a distinct list of all space administrators in all spaces, but that's a small extention.

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks for it - we tried that one but ran into a performance issue. Expect to brew some cans of coffee when you have like 4000 users, and 90 spaces.

Regarding the performance issues of the atlassian KB provided macro. I re-wrote it to drastically improve the performance of the macro by only iterating through the spaces and only getting the distinct administrators from each space. Below is my new macro code which i thought i should share so that others can benefit from this:

## Macro title: Space Administrators
## Macro has a body: N
## Body processing: Selected body processing option
## Output: Selected output option

#set($containerManagerClass = $content.class.forName('com.atlassian.spring.container.ContainerManager'))
#set($getInstanceMethod = $containerManagerClass.getDeclaredMethod('getInstance',null))
#set($containerManager = $getInstanceMethod.invoke(null,null))
#set($containerContext = $containerManager.containerContext)
#set($spaces = $spaceManager.getAllSpaces())
<table class="aui aui-table-interactive">
 <tr>
 <th class="confluenceTh">Space</th><th class="confluenceTh">Administrator(s)</th>
 </tr>
#foreach($spacer in $spaces)
 #if (!$spacer.isPersonal())
 <tr>
 <td class="confluenceTd"><a href="$req.contextPath/display/$spacer.key">$spacer.name</a></td><td class="confluenceTd"><ul>
 #set($administrators = $spaceManager.getSpaceAdmins($spacer))
 #foreach($admin in $administrators)
 <li>#usernameLink($admin.name)</li>
 #end
 </ul>
 </td>
 </tr>
 #end
#end
</table>

Hi Adam,

Thanks for this update.

Is there a way to add the email address after the space admin name ?

Thanks,

Claudio Maia

@David Change the line of $admin.name to:

<li>#usernameLink($admin.name) #if ($admin.email) (<a href="mailto:$admin.email">$admin.email</a>) #end</li>

David
