Hello @Bernard , not sure what you mean by a group being attached to a particular space. 

[Bernard]

In a space (spacetools) under access you can attach user groups for particular persissions.

I want to list the names of these these groups for a given spacekey

So you are wanting this for the entire Confluence instance, a list of permissions for each space?

Maybe a plugin such as this one would do what you want to: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1214087/space-admin-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview

Hi Bill,

As i mentioned in my first post " a particular space"  not systemwide.

I can query users in a particular group via a user macro.

Now just wat to list the "user" groups attatched to a space.

So i get this via a user macro: 

(query groups in for a given space)

group name 1

 - user

 - user

group name 2

 - user

- user

can this be done?

Well, it won't be 100%, but you could generate a list of all pages in the space, then query who was the creator, and who last modified the page, then query what groups those user belong to, and resort. Of course you will have situations where a single user belongs to two groups.

Or you can run this orthogonally, and list all groups, then their users, displaying only those who have edit permission for example.  Here is a snippet of code I found:

#if ($permissionHelper.canEdit($authenticatedUser, $action.page)) <b>You have Edit Permission for this Page</b> #end

But it would take some work to develop and test this macro, not sure the ROI is there when any space admin can just view the permissions.
