Re- import backupfiles

[Liesl Pescivolo]

Hi there

I encountered an issue with a Confluence site that has expired. We've successfully re-registered the site, but unfortunately, all data related to pages was lost in the process.

Fortunately, I had previously backed up the site before it expired. This is a ZIP file. Now, we're looking to import this backup into the site again. However, the backup size exceeds 200MB (specifically 219MB), and I'm unsure how to import these files individually.

If anybody can assist me?

Since you only have a backup of your entire Site, you cannot use the method of importing space by space (https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-a-confluence-cloud-space/).

I think you may be able to do it using the instructions in this page: https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/merge-multiple-confluence-cloud-sites/, though this sounds like an involved and complicated process.

Perhaps someone else has experience of doing this and can offer their advice.
