So you have decided to migrate to Confluence now? great. However it may not be straight forward.
Here are the steps you can take to attempt this migration. You will also find links to the documentation or download pages.
- Download Universal Wiki Converter also known as UWC.
- Install UWC on Windows, Mac or Linux.
- Configure UWC to connect to Sharepoint and export the content. It won't export the attachments but will point to the attachments on Sharepoint.
- Install Confluence 4.0 - 4.3.7. Let us call this ConfluenceTemp.
- Upgrade ConfluenceTemp 4.3.x to the target version (or latest if moving to cloud)
- If migrating to existing Confluence then export the space from ConfluenceTemp and restore them to your target Confluence.
- If moving to Cloud then use the Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant.
Don't assume it will work perfectly. UWC will only help you in saving time. You might need to customise your migration steps further. For instance you can probably write a script later to download the attachments using the link to Sharepoint and attach it to your pages.
I hope it helps. Enjoy!
Still not happy. Well that's why. You can also do few more things, not really migration but integrating Sharepoint and Confluence.
- Sharepoint Select Custom Field: Jira Server app to populate a custom field with data from Sharepoint KQL Query.
- OneDrive & SharePoint for Confluence: Embed Confluence page with OneDrive file and folders. Available on Server, Cloud and Data Center.
- SharePoint Connector for Confluence: Embed SharePoint or OneDrive documents in Confluence. Available on Server, Cloud and Data Center
- Legacy SharePoint Connector: Bi-directional content embedding. Available on Server.
Enjoy again :)
