Convert LaTeX inline to native LaTeX

[Federico Viviani]

Hello community,

After carrying out a Server to Cloud migration, I tried to convert LaTeX inline formula to the native Latex offered in the Cloud version.

I managed to test it using a script, and the conversion itself was successful. However, when trying to edit a converted formula from the Confluence UI, after left-clicking on the Edit button I get:

"Macro configuration failed to load. Please close this panel and try again."

Also, I don't think there is any external/approved tool to do this, but of course correct me if I'm wrong.

Thank you and BR,

Federico

Hi @Federico Viviani 

Welcome to the community.

LaTeX isn't native to Confluence on Cloud and on Server/DC.

This can only be accomplished by using a 3rd party app from the Atlassian Marketplace.

So you require an app, also see this parter created community article; How-to-use-LaTeX-math-formulas-math-equations-in-Confluence

As far as I understand what I am referring to as native LaTeX is a Atlassian-provided /latex macro, which we did not have in the Server version.

On the contrary, the "LaTeX inline" which I'm referring to is 3rd party which we are paying for, and we'd like to maek it converge to the Atlassian-provided one I'm referring to above.

Hi @Federico Viviani 

Atlassian doesn't provide a LaTeX macro.

This is the list of ootb macros in Confluence, Macros-available-in-the-editor 

Thera are only 3rd party options.

In your DC there probably also was a LaTeX 3rd party installed, but this doesn't mean these 3rd party app align.

You will need to recreate the formulas in the new 3rd party app in Cloud.

Hello,

Welcome to cloud - I do not believe there is any native LaTeX in cloud are you using a 3rd party app? It sounds like you need the macro (ie a 3rd party vendor app)to make it work in cloud. Do you know who you used on Server? 

Thanks
