Copy page (and child pages) to another space

Maximiliano Villagra June 15, 2018

I have 2 spaces.

 

Space A: Contains many pages and documents

Space B: Site with a couple of pages

 

I need to be able to copy some of the content from Space A to Space B. I tried going to Space A -> Space Tools -> Content Tool -> Export -> to html. I pick and choose what I need to get.

Then I go into Space B -> Space Tools -> Content Tool -> Import but then it ask me for a folder. I set the folder on the server where the zip file is, and then it only creates one html page with all ascii code on it.

Then I tried unzipping the file into a different folder but still nothing gets imported.

 

Why something so simple feels so complex? Can somebody provide some help on how to get this done?

 

Thanks,

Ok, I end up using the Copy option on each of the pages (with children) to be able to copy the data from one space to another.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

These add-ons can potentially save you time if this is a routine process. Wouldn't hurt downloading the free trial and seeing if paid solutions are worth it.

If you have any budget, I would suggest looking into Copy Page Hierarchy or Copy Page Tree. I use one to copy template spaces for new space creation.

The add-ons range from 250-350USD.

So the link talks about import a space into the cloud version.

I just want to copy data from one space to another. I am trying to use the export/import. Is this the correct way of doing it or is there another way of achieving this?
