Issue Summary

• In previous versions (for instance 7.13.7) we were able to create a copy of the page directly using the copy page URL - <confluence-url>/pages/copypage.action?idOfPageToCopy=<pageId>&spaceKey=<spaceKey> but this functionality is not working in the recent Confluence instances
• The issue was introduced as part of the security fixes - CONFSERVER-81222 and CONFSERVER-81217

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new page and add some content.
2. On the same page insert a link (copy page URL) - <confluence-url>/pages/copypage.action?idOfPageToCopy=<pageId>&spaceKey=<spaceKey>
3. Save the page
4. Hit the link and it throws an error - HTTP response code 405 (Method not allowed)

Expected Results

• A copy of the page should get created when we hit the link - <confluence-url>/pages/copypage.action?idOfPageToCopy=<pageId>&spaceKey=<spaceKey>{}

Actual Results

• We get HTTP error 405 for the GET request (copypage.action) when we try to click on the link

Workaround

• Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour. A workaround will be added here when available
