Automate Export Of Space To PDF

[Michael Main]

Is there anyway to automate the export of a workspace to PDF? we are looking to export weekly updated documentation from confluence and to save the manually process each week we are looking for a way to automate this.

Hi  @Michael Main ,

As part of Appfire’s acquisition of Bobswift, the documentation is migrated to Appfire Command Line Interface (CLI)

CLI provides the exportSpace action to export the space to a file. Please refer to this example to export a space to pdf.
You can install the client from this location: Downloads and install the connector app for your respective Atlassian host i.e., Confluence CLI from the marketplace 

You need to have your own automation set up to run this action.

Hope this helps!

BTW, I'm from Appfire, the vendor of CLI app.

Thanks,
Reshma

Yes, it is possible to automate the export of a workspace to PDF using the Confluence Command Line Interface (CLI) https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/display/CSOAP/Confluence+Command+Line+Interface. The CLI allows for the automation of a variety of Confluence tasks, including exporting a space to PDF. You can set up a script to run on a regular schedule to automatically export the space to PDF and save it to a designated location.

Can. you somehow share to me since I get this 
stefan rodic@domain.co doesn't have access to Confluence on bobswift.atlassian.net.

Yes.  I have tried this and I get a PDF but it says that the PDF is corrupt.  When I open the PDF with notepad, the is a big long url that will actually open what looks like it should be the PDF in a browser.  But I need the PDF to work.

I am also getting "...doesn't have access to Confluence on bobswift.atlassian.net." 

Could You please share this page or access to it?

@Stefan Rodic

Did You get access from Riley?

I couldn't access the article so did some poking around.

You can see in the description that it was formerly the add-in from Bob Swift. 
Unfortunately it is a paid add in. Probably not something I can justify for the narrow use case I wanted it for unfortunately.
