[Improvement] Request Access/Invite Functionality

Issue #1 new
Dorian Kersch created an issue

Hi,

Want to say great add-on! I want to know if you plan to extend it to also provide a "request access" or "invite" experience.

Example:

Background: Space admins manage permissions as individuals (not groups)

Problem: Space admins aren't always knowledgeable about permissions and struggle with confluence permissions. Once they find out someone doesn't have permissions, they struggle with fixing it.

User story: As a new member on a team, I am given an account to login (SSO auto create) and placed in a "confluence-users" or "all-employees" group by default. When I go to the team space, I get a Page not found (mostly because the space admin manages permissions by individuals). The space admin is normally very busy and forgets how to do permissions. Is there a way a space admin (or other people), from the page, send an invite to me (either by email or by username.. Think of this similar to google invite experience) and that would send me an email that I have access (optional) and add me to the space permissions.

An alternative, would be "request access" on page not found situations. If the page truly doesn't exist, don't do anything (or email confluence-admins). If the page does exist, email the space admins and provide a way to give them access.

Does that make sense? I tried to make it descriptive.
