Hello all,
we have currently a challenge. We will migrate two different confluence environments into a fresh one. What will happen with all the links? Will these break?

Hi @Jean-Michel Ochmann
Within a single Confluence environments, links should be preserved if the migration is done in one chunk.
Or are you talking about links from Confluence A to Confluence B? If that's the case, maybe instead migrating A -> C and B -> C, you could go A -> B, then AB -> C.
Hey @Kristian Klima thanks for your answer,
we need to do it A -> C & B -> C. So this means the links will break right? And needs to be adjusted?
@Jean-Michel Ochmann Based on my experience on server and cases I've seen here, the links between A and B will probably break.The links between spaces within A, and the links between spaces within B, will not break if a whole site is migrated in one go.Perhaps you can test this on small scale with a space from A and a space from B (the spaces would be cross-linked), migrate them to C and observe the behavior.
When I dealt with the issue, I used a search/replace app to find the pages with links I had to correct, then had to dig in manually. The app could do full regex but I didn't want to risk wrecking thinks unintentionally. Chances are this can be done programmatically but that's beyond my expertise.
