NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding bug report.
To reproduce, create a space "TestBug" in Confluence, then do the following on the space permissions:
- Strip out all Anonymous access from TestBug
- Remove the jira-administrators group from group permissions (note we are using integrated access from JIRA)
- Add in admin-user1 to the individual users section
- Login as admin-user2
- Confirm that admin-user2 is unable to see TestBug space in list of spaces
- Go to Confluence Admin -> Space Permissions
- Press the "Recover Permissions" button for TestBug
- It should change to "Manage Permissions"; try to click that link
- You should get to an error page saying Not Permitted
Now, back as admin-user1, you can validate that admin-user2 got added to the individual users section as an Admin, but has no View access, so cannot see the admin page.
This is bad news if you dont have a fellow admin to help you unlock yourself or regain access.
