Is there a way to get all space attachments from Confluence Cloud without writing code?

Question

I know about zip space backups and the REST API.  Here's my use case:  I have a business team that has a bunch of PDFs in a carefully organized set of Windows folders.  They are interested in migrating that content to Confluence, although most of it will remain in PDF form and not page form.

They've asked my whether, in the event that we stop using Confluence Cloud (not that likely), they will be able to get their documents back?  My tools team isn't necessarily equipped to write custom code to restore things to a usable folder/file naming structure and I don't think that parsing XML to help map the attachment storage names to the "real" file names is acceptable to them.

Any advice?

I am a server user and I do know for sure that as Cloud users you don't have to worry about so many things. Once you move the instance on prem you will have to decide.

The screenshot you sent is a bit close to how attachments display in JIRA. The only info missing on it is the Issue Key.

For Confluence it is different, after so many ls and cd attached is what I got:

Hi Fadoua -

Yes, I think so.  Mainly I want to know whether the documents will end up like

\attachments\98\10001                  
\attachments\98\10002                   
\attachments\99\10001

or if there's a way I can get them like:

\pagename\Q1Report.pdf

\pagename\Q2Report.pdf

etc.
