Export Pages with Attachments

[Ramprasad Baliga]

We want to export all of our pages in confluence space as a separate word file. Since the project is huge, we cannot do the export page by page. Is there an easy way to do this? Also, we want to include the attachments in the export. These exports will later be stored in service now knowledge base. How can we achieve this ?

[Matthew J. Horn · Accepted solution]

What you want to do is very complex because of the nature of HTTP and the cross-browser incompatiblities. There might be a JavaScript library that supports such features, so I would start there.

So I am not opposed in anyway to implementing a solution with JavaScript however, at this point I am more so interested specifically in what is the current implementation of initiating the download once a link is clicked.

For instance, is one of the servlet processes that is always waiting for such a request to come from any link in the running tomcat instance?

Or something more like a download server routine running?

[Lawrence Robinson]

I would like to further clarify that I am asking this:

Does confluence implement anything like a download manager to handle serving files that maybe embedded by way of a link?

or

Does clicking on an embedded link simply load the URL into the clients browser using default browser behavior?
