Can't add Administrators as watcher?

Can't add Administrators as watcher?

Hey there,

got a Problem with our Confluence Cloud - I can't add Users which got Admin Permissions as Watcher of Workspaces/Pages ...

Can't find any Setting which would prevent this?

Any Ideas on that?

thx

Solution: Had contacted Atlassian Support on this ... Problem was a "not updated search index" ... they refreshed the index - now it's working as is should ...

Are your administrators explicitly given "browse project" rights via their group or role?

yea - they got every right one could think of ...

One Admin is even configured with "Single User" Permissions - but I can't add him as Watcher either ... ?!?

They look like they should be add-able, as they've got "use" on the space. All I can think of is that they're not really confluence admins, just site.

The Admin in Question (Patrick Neuner) got even "Single User" Permission on that Space - got no idea where to look further ... :-(
