Existing Confluence Users - Migrate to Jira Directory

[Nathan Bouwsma]

We have been using Confluence and built our users in the internal directory. We added Jira and are using the Jira Directory Server to bring new users in. How do I move my Internal Confluence users into Jira Directory Server. Is there a migration or synchonization process?

Hi Nathan,

I recommend to try to migrate the users in confluence version 5.3 or above since there were changes in the user mapping inside the database.

I could find this other answer that may help migrating the users from directories: https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/87000/how-to-migrate-users-from-one-directory-to-another-using-sql

I heavily suggest a backup of confluence before any change in the database.

Cheers,

Rod

Is there a way to merge two users or transfer all authored pages, etc. between users?
