How to export a space using CLI

So, after you've exported a space from Cloud with exportSpace, how is that then re-imported to Cloud? (besides through the UI)

The action restoreExport appears to only be viable with Server/DC.

Hi @Hayath Khan K

We are from BobSwift support team. 

We have opened a Support Request SUPPORT-2906 for this issue. Could you please try to access the ticket SUPPORT-2906 and signup to our portal for further discussion on this ticket.

You can export a space using CLI by following below steps:

1. Download the CLI for the client by downloading latest atlassian-cli-8.8.0-distribution.zip from here
2. Go to atlassian-cli-8.8.0 folder and run the below command using --action exportSpace

 ./confluence.sh --server <confluence url> --user <username> --password <password> --action exportSpace --space "<space key>"  --file "<path where to export the file>/exportSpaceHtml.zip"  --exportType "HTML"

Please let us know if you have any questions and we are happy to assist you.

Regards,
Sudhir

@Sudhir _Appfire_  Thanks for the details about export.. I see there is an action restoreExport but it seems like we have to get into target server and run it, is there any possibility to provide target instance url and run it from  source instance itself.

Also I tried copyspace action where we can provide target url but I can see only spaces are copied there not pages and other details of it..

Could you help me on this.

Thanks

You will need CLI tools for confluence (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/284/confluence-command-line-interface-cli?hosting=cloud&tab=overview)

Once you get this you can follow examples listed on this page - https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CSOAP/pages/10584066/Examples
