Hi @Silvia Llumiquinga 

Just to avoid ambiguity... when you say Folder, do you mean folder as a feature in the Space navigation tree that has a bunch of child pages but has no content in itself?

 

Generally speaking, you can export the entire space as XML, CSV, PDF, HTML - from Space Settings, and, with a help of an app such as Scroll Word Exporter, as a Word document.

@Kristian Klima  It's correct, from Confluence Cloud I have created some folders that contain pages and I need to download all that information but I only found the option to download page by page, is there a way to download the entire folder?

Once you click NEXT, you'll see the option to customize the export and only select the pages/sections that you need.

Yes, it is possible to download content from Confluence, including all the folders (spaces, pages, or attachments), but the exact steps depend on your role (admin or user) and the version of Confluence you’re using (Cloud or Server/Data Center). Here's how to proceed:


1. Exporting Spaces (Recommended for Structured Content)

Confluence allows you to export entire spaces, which include pages and attachments, in a structured format.

Steps for Exporting a Space:

  1. Go to the Space Settings:

    • Open the space you want to export.
    • Click on the gear icon (⚙️) or "Space Settings" in the sidebar.
  2. Export Content:

    • Under the "Manage Space" section, select "Content Tools."
    • Click on the "Export" tab.
  3. Choose Export Format:

    • You can export in HTML, XML, or PDF format:
      • HTML: Ideal for browsing locally.
      • XML: Useful for importing into another Confluence instance.
      • PDF: Best for sharing static content.
  4. Download:

    • Click "Export" and download the file when the export is complete.

2. Downloading Attachments

If you want to download all attachments (files) from your Confluence pages:

For Individual Pages:

  1. Open the page in Confluence.
  2. Locate the "Attachments" section (usually in the sidebar or under "More actions").
  3. Download files individually or in bulk (if the bulk option is available

Hi @Silvia Llumiquinga ,

As far as I know, natively this isn't possible. I've scanned through open feature suggestions but didn't manage to find one related to your requirement.

As for exporting multiple pages, if you have appropriate space permission, you could use space export feature to export selected, multiple pages (to PDF for example).

I would potentially recommend reaching out to the Support team with this request/requirement as they could probably open a feature request on JAC for you.

Cheers,
Tom
