shortcuts cleanup/fix after migration from server to cloud

[Jay Maechtlen]

We recently migrated from Server to Cloud.

Many links are broken, pointing to old Server instance.

Is there a reasonable way to address those broken links, aside from manually fixing them?

For that matter, is there a reasonable way to even find those broken links?

Hey @Jay Maechtlen 

You have 2 options.

1. Go to Confluence settings -> Data Management -> Jira Macro Repair and run the repair.

2. run it more than one time to make sure it catch all macros.

You can always contact Atlassian support if you need some other fixes.

Best regards,

Ariel.

I'll have to ask our admin.

If that's a JIRA macro, does it also fix Confluence shortcuts?

Thanks!

Actually, my original post wasn't well thought out.

Links within Confluence are mostly fine. The links I was complaining about were all my browser links to pages in the server instance. 

I mostly just killed the old ones and created new ones for our cloud installation.

Annoying, but not disastrous.

Something to consider when you migrate - will you redirect requests for the old instance, send users to a login for the old instance, or what?

Thanks for the suggestions!

@Jay Maechtlen I'm not sure if you have any outliner cases you are trying to deal with or if you have new cloud needs. We built a Redirection app for cloud.

While another app Space Content Manager has bulk editing tools including for URLs.
