The Edit Permission Inheritance App allows to inherit the edit permissions defined on a page down to all of its child pages. The app does not introduce an additional permission level. It basically copies the edit permissions to all child pages and takes care of added pages.

Observation/Question

Explanation/Answer

I started an inheritance on a page with many descendants. It seems to take a lot of time before all child have the proper set of edit permissions.

The app is intentionally slow not to over-stress the interface to Atlassian Cloud. Please consider something around 1 second per descendant/child page.

I checked whether a child page got the inheritance - but it has not.

There are a couple of things to check:

  1. Please reload the page and check again. Confluence Cloud is very special in reloading / caching information and simply does not notice the change although it already happened.

  2. Please also check that the page missing an inherited edit permission does not have a view restriction hindering this as described here.

  3. A sub-inheritance on a lower level descendant will stop the inheritance into that branch.
