How to find Confluence Template on the server?

Question

Hi,

How can we get the template file on the server which was created from UI.

Problem: I have few Templates created in Confluence Server, now I need to copy to Confluence Cloud.

Thanks,

Pavan

Hello there!
Pavan, as of today Confluence does not have a native tool to export existing templates. There is a plugin that allows you to export templates as .xml files:
Template OPS - Atlassian Marketplace
This plugin is currently not available for Confluence Cloud.

We also have an open feature request pointing at template export and import:
​CONFSERVER-307778 - Export and Import Confluence Template​​​

However, Confluence Cloud allows template import from the Marketplace only:
​Confluence Cloud - Import Template​​​

A possible approach to your situation is to copy the template content from Confluence Server, Create a new template in Confluence Cloud and then paste the copied content there.
