nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Is there any way to download all attachments en masse from a space or multiple spaces?

The Need: Administrator needs to effectively download a large volume (1000+) of attachments from one or more spaces in order to relocate them to a more appropriate long term storage solution in a timely manner.

The reason for this: Reduce Space size (Confluence Guardrail)

Hi @_string_

Have you seen this article?

Appears to be what you're looking for and much quicker than just downloading them from the spaces themselves and re-uploading.

Hello Ash,
I appreciate the response and I had not seen this article. Although, this is more of an All OR None approach, it may be the only solution available. I was hoping for more of a way to manage (Migrate) the attachment volume at the space level.

Thank you,
Tad

Hey @_string_

I don't believe there is a way to do it just for attachments.

You could in theory export the entire spaces one by one including all attachments but that might be quite cumbersome and may not yield the results you're looking for but that is more of a space by space approach if that's what you're after.

There's a detailed thread on it here: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Export-spaces-and-attachments/qaq-p/135920

Hope this helps.

Kind Regards,

Ash

Thanks Ash! I found in that thread a post from Bob Swift that looks promising: "

Yes, using Confluence Command Line Interface. Use runFromAttachmentList for the specific space and combine with getAttachment. Example:

confluence --action runFromAttachmentList --space ABC --common "--action getAttachment --id @pageId@ --file \"temp/@attachment@\" --name \"@attachment@\" "
