access Rights in Cofluence

Question

Hi I am a functional administrator of an organisation. There are 2 users members of the same group. The one has the right to make changes on the page and the other do not have the right. How is this possible

Hello @Reshma Rampartaap

* Does the second user have a Confluence license?
* Is the page being restricted to only some users?

@Reshma Rampartaap If you want to learn more about permissions in Confluence, I suggest that you start with these posts:

If the second user can view the page, but can't edit it, then it is most likely caused by the page restrictions added to that page.

There is a great guide to troubleshoot these kind of access problems.
