How to find the key for a space?

[Stefan Solender]

In some macros you can enter one or several "space keys" in a comma separated list. For example in the Recently Updated macro. How can I find this key? When I browse different spaces, not all of them have the key in the URL.

Sometimes the URL looks like:
https://confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=35989703

Is there any other way of finding the key?

@Stefan SolenderAs space administrator you can  go  to   Space tools > Overview > Space details , there  you  can  find space key

Best!

There's a way to do it without Space Administrator permissions.

Open the Spaces > "Space directory" page and locate the space you are interested in. There are little (i) icons for each space (Space details). Click it for the space you are interested in and you'll have the /spaces/viewspacesummary.action?key={KEY} page with the key. Bingo!

I found in another thread that you could get all space data out via REST-API and find the key there:
http(s)://{your server}/rest/api/space?limit=500

Hi Stefan,

Is there any API to export the confluence spaces list?

Thanks,
