Every time a user A is added to a page restriction, all children should be immediately retrievable with the API:

• https://<INSTANCE_NAME>.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/search?cql=content=<PAGE_X_id>

User A is adopted in the Basic Auth of the API call.

The children may not be immediately available in the API response. This occurs because all children need to be indexed with the "in-flight indexing." Ideally, children would be available right away; however, depending on the size of the site, this process may take several minutes to complete.

Ideally, this process should be finished right after adding the user to the parent page restrictions.

For example, consider the following scenario:

• User A does not have access to page X because parent Y is restricted.

• User A is added to the page restrictions of parent page Y with View permission.

• User A now has access to child page X.

• User A is used for the basic auth of the API.

• The API wiki/rest/api/search?cql=content=<PAGE_X_id> does not retrieve page X

• We wait 5 to 15 minutes
• Page X is now retrievable with the API
