Previously, the space import process automatically granted the user who is running the import space permissions after the space import process is finished.

However, this behavior has changed. Users are still able to recover the space permissions by going to General Settings > Space permissions but this is not applicable for users who are in the Free tier.

Free-tier users are basically stuck in this scenario if the space they intend to import spaces that they do not originally have access to since opening up a space's permissions would require the admin to have access to the space in the first place.

It would be great to have some kind of ability for free-tier users to recover space permissions in this scenario.
