Confluence Import Specifics

This topic describes which Confluence entities are supported for the direct Confluence content import and the specifics of importing Spaces from the portal with the Scroll Versions plugin.

Supported Confluence Entities

When importing your Confluence content, ClickHelp processes the following entities:

Confluence entity

Space
Imported as a ClickHelp project.
Pages
Each Page is imported as a separate topic.

Unsupported macros are handled based on the option you select.

For more information, refer here: Importing Confluence Macros.

Space version (the Scroll Versions plugin)
Each version is considered a separate Space. You can find detailed information below.

The Space Version Import Specifics (Scroll Versions)

Suppose the Scroll Versions plugin is installed in your Confluence Server or Data Center instance. In that case, the Space version (Scroll Versions) list becomes available in Step 3 of Import Wizard during the Space import.

The list is visible for all your Spaces: those with versions and those without.

  • For the Spaces with versions, you must select the version you want to import and run the import process for each separately. However, you don't have to import them all as different projects; you can import them to the same project individually.
  • For the Spaces without versioning, the Base Version is predefined and cannot be changed.
