Information about copying permissions

Previously, you could choose to copy the permissions of a space if you had a paid version of Confluence Cloud. This is no longer supported, so we removed the option to copy permissions. When you copy a space, default permissions are always applied.

The following data is not supported and is not copied:

  • Permissions

  • Page likes

  • Comment likes
