Bulk add confluence space group to archived spaces

Question

Hello,

I am reaching out for assistance in adding a specific group, "Confluence group," to the Confluence space permissions for 100 archived spaces. With the existing feature 'Add people to all spaces,' we can only bulk add a group to personal and global spaces. However, I am wondering if there is a way to bulk add a space group to archived spaces. This request is for Confluence Cloud.

Thanks for your Help!!

Pages are essentially locked when archived. There are good reasons for this, my point is it makes sense that we have to unarchive a page to edit it.

HI @Sheeba Gethsi Scwartz

This can't be done as the spaces are archived, only active spaces can be amended this way.

You be required to unarchive the spaces first.

It might that this can be achieved via the API.
