Space has been exported as .zip & .pdf but unable to import into another on-prem Confluence instance. Any solutions?

Hi Jaqueline

welcome to the Atlassian community

Have you checked  https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/migrate-from-confluence-cloud-to-server/ and https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/import-a-space-from-confluence-cloud-967876449.html and what the limitations and prerequisites are?

Generally speaking the XML export should be the way to go.

Cheers

Kurt

Hi @Jacqueline.Downs

I would recommend:

* Take a server backup of cloud 
* Restore on a separate server instance
* Export the space on the instance from step 2 and restore this to your target instance.

Make sure you check things like username and other settings to ensure you do not accidentally create duplicate user and you may need to clean up macros that exist in Cloud but not on the DC offering.
