New feature: Easily export list of legacy pages and templates with space admin tool

We’re excited to announce a new feature for Confluence Cloud space admins: a dedicated tool to help you view legacy pages and templates in your space! This feature is rolling out now and expected to reach all customers by the end of the week. 

What’s new?

Space admins can now quickly view and export a CSV list of all legacy pages and templates in their space. This makes it easier to plan for the upcoming deprecation of the legacy editor. This addresses two feature suggestions:

What can you do with the new tool?

  • See all legacy content at a glance: Instantly view which pages and templates are still using the legacy editor.

  • Export detailed reports: Download a CSV with key details like eligibility for conversion, content owners, and direct links.

  • Identify what needs attention: Spot pages or templates with unsupported content or conversion errors, so you can take action before the legacy editor is phased out.

How does it work?

  1. Go to Space settings in your Confluence Cloud space.

  2. Select General > Legacy content from the sidebar.

  3. Choose to view pages or templates, and export the CSV report.

What information is included?

For each legacy page or template, you’ll see information such as:

  • Space name

  • Space key

  • Template / Page title

  • Owner

  • Eligibility status

  • Last modified date

  • Direct link to the content

Understanding eligibility status

Note: If auto-convert is enabled, users will view these pages in the new editor, but they’re still stored as legacy until edited and published. These auto-converted pages will still appear in this report.

 

Eligibility Status

What it means

Supported

Can be converted to the new editor. If auto-convert is enabled, this will happen automatically.

Unsupported

Cannot be auto-converted. Manual conversion may be possible, but some content on the page might not be editable.

Unsupported sections will be visible when viewing the page, but not editable; the rest of the page will remain fully editable and viewable.

Error

An error occurred when determining the eligibility status, or the status is unknown.

Please review the page for any errors and try manual conversion.

 

We are continuing to address unsupported use cases to ensure that, by the time deprecation begins in January, nearly all content will be eligible for conversion. For the small number of pages that remain unsupported, please note that these pages will still be viewable even after the legacy editor is deprecated

As an org admin, it would great to view all legacy content at once, not space by space

I could live with that - if it would work...

I tried it on our main confluence space. When i start the export i get an error message repeatedly, i guess because the csv file get's too big. So before this export i don't know which pages we must edit in advance to make the transition to the new editor smoothly, because there was no tool where we could see those pages. Now i still don't know which pages we must edit, because this export don't work... nothing changed...

Why isn't there an option where we could at least select the page status we are wanting to have in this export? That way we could at least limit the export to only those pages that need to be edited manually, namely "Unsupported" and "Error" state for example?

I appreciate that this is being rolled out but in my tenant it shows we will get it in November which leaves less than two months to deal with tens of thousands of legacy pages. I would think that with the late delivery of this feature that Atlassian would push back the timeline for forced conversion of legacy pages by at least 2-3 months at a minimum.

When will this be rolled out to all sites.  As of this morning I have not seen this feature in either our sandbox or production environments.

Agree with the comments above. If you have a space you've been using for quite awhile (& probably does have legacy content), the export fails, likely due to the size. It would be great if you could trigger this process to kick off at a page and include all child pages below it, that way we could export in groups and avoid this failure. As it is now, this tool is unusable....but was a great idea.

Hi @Frank Kulla @Trixie Johnson

We apologize for the inconvenience. We are aware of an issue with the export erroring out for large spaces and are actively working on a fix. Please "watch" and follow along on CONFCLOUD-83179 to receive updates on the rollout of this fix. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Hi @Brian Taylor 

This is rolled out to all customers as of last week Friday November 14. Please let me know if you're still having trouble with accessing the space admin tool in your sandbox or production environment.

Hi @Rick Westbrock 

Thank you for your feedback and for your patience as we roll out the new space admin tool.

Before this tool was released, we provided a self-serve script and support to help customers retrieve this information, as noted in our original announcement and FAQ page on July 1, 2025. Our support team was also available to assist if you needed help before the tool became available.

(Please note: Since the rollout of this new admin tool, that script has now been retired.)

I understand this isn’t the outcome you were hoping for, but at this time, the deprecation timeline for legacy pages remains unchanged. Thank you again for sharing your feedback.

@Elle Ky I encountered issues with the tool as well : the file failed to download in one space, and in another, the CSV showed many "error" statuses. After rerunning the tool with the Admin Key, it worked better—no error statuses appeared, and the file downloaded successfully. It seems the issues were caused due to restricted pages.

My question: will the auto-convert tool convert restricted pages as well?
