REST API Confluence get the Restriction and Permission per page

Question

Hey,

I wand receive a treeview of a space, which has the information of permissions and restrictions of groups and users.

At the moment, I use following REST-API-CALL to create the treeview of the space.

BASEURL /rest/api/space/{spacekey}/content/page?expand=content,ancestor

How I can expand this REST-API-CALL to receive the groups/users which are allowed to see the pages?

Thanks K

Update: I didn't notice that the URL in the original post was /rest/api/space/{spacekey}/content/page, so my suggestion to use "children.page" and "children.page.children.page" (etc.) won't have made sense (I was originally using the /rest/api/content?spaceKey=xxx URL).

However, this still works fine:

expand = ''
expand += 'restrictions.read.restrictions.group,'
expand += 'restrictions.update.restrictions.group,'
expand += 'restrictions.read.restrictions.user,'
expand += 'restrictions.update.restrictions.user,'

@[deleted], I just saw this and thought I'd share that you can do this via the "expand" query parameter. It took a few iterations to get it working (I found the reported possible expand values rather confusing)!

For example, this will get two levels of children and their restrictions. I too want to walk the entire tree, so I figured that I'd use a mixture of this and recursion.

expand = ''
expand += 'restrictions.read.restrictions.group,'
expand += 'restrictions.update.restrictions.group,'
expand += 'restrictions.read.restrictions.user,'
expand += 'restrictions.update.restrictions.user,'
expand += 'children.page.restrictions.read.restrictions.group,'
expand += 'children.page.restrictions.update.restrictions.group,'
expand += 'children.page.restrictions.read.restrictions.user,'
expand += 'children.page.restrictions.update.restrictions.user,'
expand += 'children.page.children.page.restrictions.read.restrictions' \
'.group,'
expand += 'children.page.children.page.restrictions.update.restrictions' \
'.group,'
expand += 'children.page.children.page.restrictions.read.restrictions' \
'.user,'
expand += 'children.page.children.page.restrictions.update.restrictions' \
'.user,'
