Hi I am trying to use a Confluence Database as a glossary of terms and have been able to import from our current HTML files successfully, however it is possible to import the same file twice and end up with multiple duplicate entries as a result.

My question is how can I:

- undo an import or other edit command on the database (the undo option in the menu just undoes character by character edits) ?

- search for and delete duplicate entries in the database?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Jon Beech and welcome to the community.

I'm afraid that's just a lot of manual work here... select the import (shift + select by click works) and then manual find, manual remove...

Having said that... I recommend attending this Database Deep Dive free learning webinar - this Wednesday.

@Matt Reiner _K15t_ is from K15t, the company that actually developed Database (Atlassian later acquired the product) and he knows the DBs inside out.
