The Security settings can be used to adjust app usage permissions for specific users, groups, or even spaces.
Settings Options

| False |
Omit Page Restrictions | Omit restrictions for the new Page Tree. If checked, the restrictions from the source Page wont be copied at all. This setting can help if you have unprivileged users which need to use Page Tree Creator on edit restricted template spaces. | Disabled |
Space Permission | Exempt View Permission: If checked, there is no view permission needed on the selected source space to copy pages from it.

If none is selected here then all spaces can be used as source to create new spaces from. By default all spaces are authorized spaces. | None |
Permitted Groups | Users in these groups are allowed to use Copy Space and Copy Page Tree from every space. (even if they are not listed in Permitted Spaces) | None |
