Hi,

We're embarking on merging two Confluence instances following a company acquisition, is there any easy way of bulk editing Jira URLs on pages?

Jira issue key will be the same in the URL, it's just the domain that's changing.

Thanks.

Hi @Graham Harbour 

have you checked whether the Link Migration tool can help in this scenario? It's build for Server to Cloud migration but maybe it can be used for C2C as well?

We're still at the planning stage, but this seems to be the closest solution I've seen.  Thanks.

Hi @Graham Harbour, I have not used the Link Migration tool which seems like it could be a good solution. However, if it does not work out for you I have used the Confluence Command Line Interface tool just recently to do something very similar where I had to do a find/replace on some text on about 2k pages. It took about 10-15 minutes.

The command looks worse then it is:

--action runFromPageList --id 123456789 --descendants --common "--action modifyPage --id @pageId@ --findReplace www.jira.a.com:www.jira.b.com"

I used the id of the home page for the space and the decedents flag grabs every page underneath of it. Then the find and replace was pretty straight forward after that. This one command updated all 2k pages for me.

Please let us know what you end up doing. I would be interested in hearing the result.
