How can you modify the space key of a space?
Although this feature isn't currently supported in Confluence, there is a workaround documented here - http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Copy+Or+Rename+A+Space
copy to a new space， set the new spacename and new spacekey.
One word of warning having gone through this a couple of times, make the old space read-only for a period of time before you delete it. I've had some issues with content after a move being odd and the data owner needing the originals.
Hi All,
I'm trying to find a way to redirect anyone going to the old URLs to the new URLs. Anyone know of a space-wide redirect option? Do I have to put the redirect macro on every page?
Thanks,
Emily

You can use this to change the space key.
Copy the space with this plugin. While copying the space you'll be prompted to type in the name of the space and space key. After changing those, export the space you copied with the new space key and import it to the confluence instance you want.
Download the Copy Space for Confluence plugin and install it
https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/212/copy-space-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview
For manual installation;
Administration > Global configuration > Manage add-ons > Upload add-on > browse (select the jar file you downloaded) > Upload
To use plugin;
Spaces > Space directory > click on the space you want > Space tools > Content Tools > Apps > type in new space name and key (you can check the boxes to copy the options specified) > Save
Your Space Directory should have your copied space with the new name and space key. Now you can delete the space with the old name.
