Import a Space from Confluence

In ClickHelp, you can import your Confluence Space directly without exporting it into any output format beforehand.

This topic describes importing a Space from Confluence Server, Cloud, and Data Center editions.

1. Open the Projects page and click the Import button.
   
2. In the Import Wizard, select Confluence, and specify where to import the content: create a new project or add the topics to an existing project. In ClickHelp, a Project is a Confluence Space analog.
   
3. If creating a new project, give it a name in the Project name box, specify the Project language, and click Next. The Confluence Login step opens.
   
4. Select the Confluence edition from the three available options, depending on the one you import from.
5. In the Confluence portal URL box, enter your portal URL.
   

   If you're unsure about the portal URL, insert any link to your Confluence instance — like a link to a page or a space. ClickHelp will try to recognize the portal URL automatically

8. Click Next. Confluence Settings step of the Import Wizard opens.
9. Select the Confluence Space you want to import in the Space name dropdown list.
