Issue Summary
The User List macro does not find the group/memberships if the target group name ends with a blank space.
The blank space is filtered for all responses, so the macro never renders the expected list of users, even if we force the blank space in the request.
This only affects External Groups since groups created within the product are automatically trimmed for any extra space in the end.
Steps to Reproduce
- Provide an external group to Confluence containing a blank space as last character (i.e. "group-name ")
- Ensure the group has at least one active user as member
- Create a page, insert a User List macro and set "group-name " (without quotes) as the group name to be searched.
Expected Results
List of user members displayed for the group.
Actual Results
Message "No results were found for groups : <group-name>"
(Note the blank space is not displayed)
Workaround
The only workaround at the moment is changing the name of external groups to remove any blank spaces at the end of the string.
