XMLWordPrintable

      Issue Summary

      1. In any Confluence page, we can click on the "Share" button near the top right, to share a page with users who are in, or not in the site.
      2. If we use their email for this, even if the user is already in, we get a message that prompts us to invite the user into the site.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Visit any page in Confluence.
      2. Click on the "Share" button.
      3. Type in the email of any user we want to share the page with;
        • Making sure that the user already has access to the site/space/page.
      4. You'll get a message that says;
        • user@email.com can't access any content in any spaces.
          Invite them to Confluence to start collaborating.
          Invite people
          

      Expected Results

      • The "Invite people" pop-up should only appear if the user/email is not already in the site.

      Actual Results

      • The "Invite people" pop-up appears regardless if the user is in the site or not,.

      Workaround

      • As a workaround, we can either;
        1. Search for the user using their name, and selecting their profile, or
        2. Click anywhere outside the "Share" pop-up to dismiss the message, and click on the "Share" button again to share the page.
