Inspect Permissions does not match user permissions for a space

XMLWordPrintable

      Problem

      The new feature of Inspect Permissions is not matching the current user's permissions for a space.

      Environment

      Confluence Datacenter 7.3.x 

      .

      Steps to Reproduce

       

      1. Navigate to any space
      2. Press Space tools > Permissions
      3. *In the Groups section, click on *Edit Permissions button
      4. Remove all the permissions from the confluence-users group
      5. Press Save All
      6. In the same screen, at the Individual Users section, click on Edit Permissions
      7. Type a user X that don't belong to the confluence-administrator group
      8. Give this user only the following permissions:
        1. All > View
        2. Blog > Add
        3. Restrictions > Add/Delete
      9. Inspect the permissions for the user X (they wont match).

      Expected Results

      The expected results are that the inspect permissions shows the following for user X:

      1. All > View
      2. Blog > Add
      3. Restrictions > Add/Delete

      Actual Results

      The inspect permissions is showing that the user X have almost all permissions, as we can see in the attachment "Screen Shot 2020-02-27 at 17.34.06.png".
