Export pdf

Rahul November 22, 2022

I am facing issue while exporting a page from confluence. I am getting an error stating that "Your session has expired. You may need to resubmit the form or reload the page"

 

Export to word is working fine

We're also having the same issue on our cloud service.

I had the same problem and created a ticket at Atlassian Support. This resulted in this public issue:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-74930

Can you confirm whether it fixed or not?  I see their support marked as resolved but I cannot view the detail.

Bart Vermeir November 24, 2022

This issue is not resolved (for me). CONFCLOUD-74930 is marked as 

  • Resolution:Unresolved

In the issue links you can see the following:
    is resolved by
        HOT-101302 

But this is an internal link - we cannot see the contents of hotfix HOT-101302.

As a workaround, while viewing the page you wish to export, select the More Actions menu (triple dots) > Advanced details > View Source.

The page will open without the surrounding Confluence navigation panes and menus. You can use the browser's print function (Ctrl+P) to print to PDF.

If you use background coloring in your page, you may wish to tick the option to print background colors and/or headers.

Excellent workaround, thank you!

I did have a problem displaying some tables, but overall worked for me.

Hi,

this also affects my cloud instance, so it seems to be a general issue. 

I reported at Atlassian Support and will try to post updates as atlassian reponds.

Regards,

Harald

Kane McConnell November 22, 2022

Thanks, Harald. We are free users for the moment, so we don't have access to support. Hopefully, a fix is forthcoming.

I got feedback: "unable to reproduce, please clear browser cache and try again". So I did. And the error still occurs. 

Kane McConnell November 22, 2022

Yep, we tried the same. Sort of a lame response from Atlassian when multiple users and tenants report the same issue.

Only some of our users are experiencing this issue. I am not, but I am an admin. 

That really doesn't help. It just makes it harder to find and fix. 

I don't see any new permission controls or anything that would have suddenly affected this.

We have the same issue for one of our users - all others can export just fine. Also one of our customers have the same problem for one user in their tenant. 

I just opened a support request ticket with Atlassian. Will update here once I receive a reply.

Jörn Bungartz November 30, 2022

The ticket mentioned by @Bart Vermeir above now contains a work-around that worked for us:

  1. As an impacted user, go to https://<Confluence-name-placeholder>.atlassian.net/wiki/welcome (<Confluence-name-placeholder> should be the site name), which should trigger a "welcome" prompt or simply refresh the page.
  2. Go back to the page(s) that you are looking to export and refresh (refresh button on the browser or /CMD/CRTL+R).
  3. Tap the ellipsis button at the top-right > Export > Export to PDF to export it again.

I can confirm this workaround is successful. Thanks!

I got a request id JST-821443

However, I suspect this is not open to public.

@Rahul @Kane McConnell you should raise a request to Atlassian Support.

This thing affect more that one instance and should be reported.

Casper Lumby November 22, 2022

Hi @Alex Koxaras _Relational_ . We are also experiencing this. When I try and raise the issue, I only have the options of "Explore Community" or "View Documentation". There are no options for creating a ticket, as far as I can tell.

Only paid plans are eligible to raise a request on support. Free plans get the help of community - where applicable.

Casper Lumby November 22, 2022

Hi @Alex Koxaras _Relational_ . Thanks. I just checked with an admin at my workplace and we are paying for Confluence. Is there any other reason why I might not be able to raise a support request?

I can confirm that the error still occurs for single page export.

Only after workaround I can report it to be fixed in two of my instances;

  • Export single page => no worky
  • Export same page from space settings (I have no idea if this requires some space admin rights) => worky
  • Export single page => suddenly works 

In my third instance, I do not apply the workaround and the error still occurs.

Casper Lumby November 23, 2022

I am also still experiencing the error. Thanks for working on this, though!

Kane McConnell November 23, 2022

Also still seeing the same issue for Export to PDF.

We are also having the same issue with our tenant. On multiple devices, we've tried logging out and using incognito browsers. This seems to be a broader issue than just for ourselves.
