How to export a confluence space automatically

Question

Hello,

At the moment we have a script, which exports only one space every week. This was made from the admin before me. Now I have to update Confluence and I was thinking about to delete the export script, but only if it's possible to export a space directly with confluence every week.

Is there a way to do this? I have looked in the space tools, but there I haven't found the resolution.

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards,

Daniel

At the moment we have Confluence 5.1.3 and I upgrade it to 5.8.4.

The confluence admin before me wrote a script to export a very important space every monday.

When I set up a new production server and want to restore the file the selfmade backupscript isn't in this restore. So my idea was, if it's possible to export a space every monday over the Webgui and not with a selfmade script over console.

Timothy you're right I also can use and adapt the scipt, but when it's possible to export over the WebGUI, I prefer it that way so it's automatically in the whole server backup and in the restore (when I need to restore)

I hope I explained it right now and you know what I want to say.

Kind regards,

Daniel

Your question does not make sense. You already have a script to export a space and you want to upgrade your instance. Suddenly you want to delete it and still export automatically? Why are you deleting the functionality that works?
