How pages redirection will act with deleted space? (links to deleted space)

[Natalia Perminova]

We're going to delete an old space.

All pages have been moved to the new one. Pages redirection works normally: if "Page not found" message appears, there are links with possible new location of the page.

I wonder, what will happen after the original space will be deleted? While it still exists the "page not found" message appears on that Old space. But what if we delete it, how redirection will perform then?

@Natalia Perminova , you should be able to get the same "Page Not Found" with possible locations. Confluence should be able to map the page with the base URL regardless of your space key.

<BASE_URL>/display/<SPACE_KEY>/Your+Page

You can probably throw in anything replacing your space key as long as your page exists Confluence will probably give you the same Page Not Found with suggestions.

<BASE_URL>/display/aaaaaaaaaaa/Your+Page

Hope it helps.

That makes sense! I tried to change the space key for the link with "page not found" status with some random letters - and it worked the same way. Great!

Thank you, @Ivan Lima !
