Return type
boolean (true/false)
Returns true if the content permission was actually changed by the routine invocation, that is a group was actually removed from the specified content permission.
Returns false if the content permission was not changed.
If the routine returns false, it doesn't mean that the specified permission still exists for the group. It just means that the state of the content permission was not changed. For example, if the specified group wasn't in the specified content permission before the routine invocation, the routine will return false, because the state of the content permission was not changed. In order to check if the specified group has a certain content permission please use the following routine: groupHasContentPermission
.
Example
Disallows members of the "confluence-users" group to modify page with id 11508.
removeGroupFromContentPermission("Edit", 11508, "confluence-users");
