      Editing a space's permissions under 1.0 requires the administrator actually clicks through to the space's summary and from there goes to editing the permissions. Even for a fairly simple Confluence setup with multiple user groups and multiple spaces, administering the permissions is already getting quite cumbersome and it's quite hard to get a picture of what spaces a single group or user can actually view/edit/etc.

      Please add a new tool into the Administrator section which lists all the spaces in the system and lets the admin edit the spaces permissions without having to go through to the summary of the space. Also please make it possible to list the space access rights of a group and/or a user to make it possible to view what content access the user or group has.

      Atlassian update: Released in Confluence Data Center 7.3

      Hi everyone

      Thanks for your comments and feedback on this issue. In Confluence Data Center 7.3, we released the ability to bulk apply permissions changes to other spaces. If you're an administrator, you also have the option to edit permissions on the fly, then copy these permissions to other spaces. This is incredibly useful when you create a new group, and want to give that group the same permissions in several existing spaces. 

      Please note that there are no plans to ship this to Confluence Server.

      Thanks

            Confluence provides granular permissions controls to ensure the right people can see the right content. In the coming months, we’ll be making these controls even better so you can be confident in your content privacy settings and compliance.

            We will be adding three new permissions features that will make *Confluence Data Center* even more powerful and help reduce administrative overhead. These features are: auditing, troubleshooting, and bulk editing.

            These features are made possible through Atlassian’s acquisition of the Ultimate Permissions Manager app produced by META-INF. Ultimate Permissions Manager has now been removed from the Atlassian Marketplace and we will be integrating its capabilities into Confluence Data Center. You can expect to see many of these improvements as the Confluence team works to integrate Ultimate Permissions Manager in the coming months.

            [Read more about these features from our blogpost |https://www.atlassian.com/blog/confluence/ultimate-permissions-manager]
