How to Change Owner of Space Overview Page

Alex Sramek October 6, 2023

I created a space a while back, and now other people in the org manage it. I still get email notifications when someone edits the Overview page. I look into the Page Information and it shows that I'm still considered the "owner" of the page. But, since it's the Overview page, there's no indication *on* the page of who the owner is, nor is there a link to change it.

How do I change the owner of a space's overview page?

Hi @Alex Sramek 

You might be getting notifications because you're either watching the page, or watching the space - you could try to remove these to see if that helps?

Easier method I find is...

  1. Select your profile icon (top-right) > Settings
  2. Select the Watches tab
  3. Stop watching relevant pages/spaces

If this doesn't work - you cannot transfer ownership of an overview page at this time - see this help page for that confirmation. 

A user could create another page though (eg. a copy) and set that as the new overview page instead - see instructions on how to do that on this page.

Ah yeah, that's it, thanks!

Actually, that's not it. I'm unwatching the page and still getting notifications.

And it's still referring to it as "your page" even though it's a space overview page.

I'd do the second option then, and create a new overview page to replace it.

please fix this :-( 

 

Completely mad that I can create a workspace for a department and then not transfer ownership.
