we want draft and published with this user disabled

There is a user in Confluence whose account is disabled, and we need to transfer all their draft and published pages to another user. Is there a way to identify all the pages created and drafted by this user?

Hi @Ajay salla

By using below page link, you can get the list of pages owned by the specific user.
Solved: How to find list of pages created by specific user...

Once you identified all pages use the view owner ship option in the page. Manually, you can change the page owner one by one.

For bulk updating the page ownership, try using third party app.

@Ajay salla Since you are on Premium and an admin, you should be able to use the bulk Change Owner feature described in this article: https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Confluence-Cloud-Admins-articles/New-bulk-action-Change-your-page-owners-in-bulk/ba-p/2657959 

Also, someone added steps to do this with automation in this question: https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Confluence-questions/Confluence-Mass-Change-Of-Owner/qaq-p/1570351

Hi @Ajay salla 

It would be great if you know in which spaces were these pages created, so you could've used this: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v2/api-group-page/#api-spaces-id-pages-get

The more difficult way would be to fetch all of the pages with the API and look for the authorId
