How do I find the admin of a space?

[joshuathomson]

I am trying to add a new user to a space but I am not an admin.

How do I find out who the admin is and how to contact them

Hey Joshua, 

There isn't a way to see the admins of a space if you are not an admin. Perhaps no one has admin permissions on the space, however, as a Site admin you can Recover the space permissions of the space.

Once you recover the permissions you can be the admin of that space or even see the other admins on the space.

To recover the space permissions navigate to Confluence Administration > click Security on the sidebar > Click Space permissions > Find the space on the list > Click Recover admin permissions

• Learn more: Assign space permissions - Recover space permissions 

If you keep having issues, as you are under a Standard subscription you can reach us through our support portal HERE.

We will be happy to help!

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your response. I don't know who the site admin is either. Is there a way to find out, or to send the site admin an email?
