Copy Confluence pages between spaces without Add permissions

Ylva Andersson December 9, 2024

Hi,

We would really need the copy-feature back as it was in Confluence Server. It makes no sense to need to have Add-permissions to just copy an article to another space. When will this be solved?

Best regards,

Ylva

Hi Ylva,

This is a tricky limitation when you don’t have the right permissions, especially for bulk content changes. If managing content across multiple spaces is a frequent need, you might find a tool like Panorama for Confluence helpful. While it doesn't bypass Atlassian’s security policies, it could streamline organising and editing content where you do have permissions, potentially saving time.

Hope this helps, and happy to share more details if needed!

Thank you! I will have a look at this tool. 

Best regards,

Ylva

@Tom_Carrott_Adaptavist I forgot to check the latest edition of Panorama (despite using it this morning for a different purpose) :)

You're pushing the updates really fast :)

@Ylva Andersson I see @Tom_Carrott_Adaptavist mentioned bulk managing content. If that's part of the problem you are dealing with more generally, I'm not sure, then I think you would find our app Space Content Manager worthwhile to evaluate. A suite of different tools.

Thanks Stavros!

Hi @Ylva Andersson and welcome to the community.

You may want to take a look at the Copy Page Tree app (it adds more features than just mere copying).

If your use case is more complex, such as synchronizing content from one space to another), Comala Publishing and Space Sync for Confluence are my go-to apps.

Ylva Andersson December 9, 2024

Thanks Kristian! I will have a look at these apps.

Hi @Ylva Andersson ,

You might want to check open suggestions on jira.atlassian.com (JAC) for this. I didn't work that much with Confluence on the server so I don't particularly know how this looked like there.

However, as soon you copy the page to another space, it will open in editor mode where you can still set page permissions.

Additionally, you can always include or embed a page to another page (if that's acceptable) and with this, you can have only one 'source' content without having duplicates and having to manage and update things on different sides.

Fyi, if there is no open suggestion for this, you can always reach out to Atlassian Support and they can probably create one for you.

Cheers,
Tom
