How to switch off option to set categories for personal spaces

Andrii Maliuta

Hello All.

Can you please tell if there is a way to switch off the possibility to set Space Category for personal spaces.

We want Space Category option to be controlled only by Confluence administrators and so that users cannot add space categories in the instance, but they can add them in their personal spaces, influencing categories of Site Spaces.

Thank you

Hi @Andrii Maliuta

you can switch off the possibility for a certain user group (or all user groups):

• go to Admin -> Security -> Global Permissions
• Switch of Personal Space for the user groups

Personal Space -> This permission allows the user to create a personal space.

and this should end the problem. In Global Permissions you can have a look on all usergroup permissions for system. For more information have a look in documentation.

Hope this helps!
