About confluence cloud page drafts

[青本]

I have a question about the confluence cloud page. I understand that page drafts cannot be viewed from other accounts, but what is the reason why other accounts can view drafts? In addition, it is not shared with other accounts. In addition, I switched accounts with a browser on the same PC and logged in to view.

Hey @青本

Drafts are personal to specific users by default. That's correct. The moment they have been shared, it will be visible like any other personal draft to the other users that you have invited - in the page tree and in the "Recent - Drafts" section. Are you certain that the draft page or the invite link was never shared with others?

Best, Max

thank you for your reply.
If I press the "Publish" button even once and the page I created is published, will other users be able to see the draft?

I don't share with the "Share" button.

Hey @青本

If you press the "Publish" button, the page will be published and is not considered a draft anymore. A page is only in a draft state before publishing it. After that, it's available to everyone who has access to it based on space permissions and page restrictions. 

Best, Max
