Removing labels from a page

[OVANES OGANYAN]

Hi!

I am an administrator.
When deleting a label from a page, an error occurs: You are not permitted to perform this operation.

Hi Ovanes,

As Joshua mentioned - you want to make sure that you have edit permissions on the page or space in order to modify its labels. If you're not able to edit the page itself, then you'll want to check the permissions in Space Tools to be sure you have the right permissions. Have a look below on where you can do that:

• Space Permissions Overview 

Although you mentioned that you're an administrator, there are different levels of administrator. So, if you're not able to access the Space Tools for the given space, then you may not an admin for that specific space. However, Confluence administrators can recover space admin permissions following the instructions found in the article below:

• Assign Space Permissions > Manage and recover space admin permissions

If you're a Confluence Administrator you can recover permissions to a space. This is useful when the only person with Space Admin permissions to a space leaves your organisation, for example.

To recover Space Admin permissions:

1. Go to   > General Configuration > Space Permissions.

2. Locate the space in the list of individual spaces and choose Recover Permissions.

You can then choose Manage Permissions, and add any other appropriate permissions to the space. Requests to recover permissions are recorded in the Confluence audit log.  

People with System Administrator permissions are able to manage permissions for all spaces, they do not need to first recover permissions.

I hope this helps, but let us know if you have any trouble.

Hi Ovanes,

Check the space permissions to see if you have the correct permissions. Being an admin does not automatically grant you permissions in a space. Cheers!
