      Issue Summary

      In Confluence Cloud, copying a page and designating a folder (space or page tree section) as the parent is impossible. Although the bug related to this in the REST API (https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-80289) has been resolved, the option is still not visible in the UI.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Open a Confluence page
      2. Click the three-dot menu (•••) and select Copy
      3. In the “Copy Page” dialog, try to select a parent page

      Expected Results

      The UI should allow the selection of any page or folder (section) as the parent, including those previously blocked due to the API bug.

      Actual Results

      The folder or section does not appear in the list of available parent pages, making setting it as the destination impossible.

      Workaround

      There is a limited workaround:

      • Manually move the page instead of using the copy option
      • Use the Confluence REST API to copy the page and specify the parent programmatically
