      Problem Definition

      Administrators can't see the list of spaces where each user has access.

      Suggested Solution

      Implement a solution similar to View Project Roles for User on JIRA so administrators can see the users' spaces.

      Workaround

      For Confluence Server:

            [CONFCLOUD-42853] List which spaces a user can access

            Hi everyone - I want to share that we've released a new feature, User Access, where admins can download a CSV that contains the spaces that a selected user or group has access to. As a result, we're closing this ticket.

            Here is a link to the Community post about the feature with additional details:

            I also hope, they add this feature to Confluence, it's weird that Jira has that feature but not Confluence.

            I would also ask the same feature for groups, so you can see which group has access to which space.

            That Workaround, is completly useless, if you work in a company, where the Database is managed in the Database-Team, and the Application in the Application-Team...

            I have to always call our database-team, if i want to look up which person or group has access to which space...

            I just downloaded the csv for a user, and this is a complete mess. I don't see how this is going to help at all. Please open this ticket back up and keep refining it until it is easy enough for anybody to understand.

            Agree with 3b21f807ea4a . Do you have no UX designers at Atlassian? That is a poor implementation of the initial feature request.

            62c32a53ff47 The User Access feature is a nice start, but it's not really good enough.

            Seeing what Spaces a select user or group has access to should be a quick an snappy job, not something that requires downloading a CSV, opening Excel (or whatever), and manipulating the file there. That's just too clunky

            In Jira there is the _https://MYSITE.atlassian.net/secure/admin/roles/ViewUserProjectRoles.jspa?accountId=_ page that'll show you every Project a User has access to.
            You still have to dig out the users ID, but it's a lot better than downloading and faffing about with a CSV.

            This is a basic requirement for tool admins and maintainers.

            This should definitly be by default!

            Confluence admins would love Atlassian way more if you deliver this feature!

            How is this not a feature at launch, expecting users to find workaround is ridiculous.
