I have a parent page that allows everyone to view and only a few to edit. All the child pages under it are set with permission "anyone can view and edit". I noticed that the users who don't have edit permission to the parent are not able edit the child pages even if child pages have no such restriction - which is logical.
This tells me that the child pages do inherit all restrictions - including edit - of the parent. However, my search tells me the following - which is not the behavior I see. So is the following outdated? Can someone please confirm what actually is the right behavior?
View restrictions are inherited, which means a restriction applied to one page will cascade down to any child pages. Edit restrictions are not inherited, which means pages need to be restricted individually.
@Abhay Patil This page seems to back up your last statement: https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/add-or-remove-page-restrictions/
It offers some further explanations and troubleshooting information that might help you.
I realize that the behavior is dictated by the permissions at the "Space" level. I see that the parent page's edit permissions are not inherited by the child pages.
