Space and Page level permissions

[Wendy M]

Hi there, 

I am a little (or a lot) confused by the space permissions and page-level restrictions on Confluence cloud. I really thought I understood it all, but apparently not. 

In our space permissions, we have a group called "General Users", which gives general access to all employees with view and add permissions. User A is part of this group. 

On a particular page, I have set restrictions so that the "General Users" only has view permissions and other user groups are granted edit permissions. In my understanding since on this specific page "General Users" only has view permissions, User A should not be able to edit the page, but he can.  

User A is not included in any of the groups that have edit permissions on the page.

What am I missing? 

Thanks

Hi @Wendy M Is User A member of any groups who have edit permissions?

Hi @Dave Mathijs

No. He is not, that is exactly what is confusing me.
