Stuck with importing a single Google doc into Confluence Cloud

Hello!

I'm having difficulty importing a single Google Doc into Confluence.

Per this article, it refers to an IMPORT button after I click "Create". But I see no such button.

What am I missing? Pls advise with screenshot if appropriate.

Thanks!

Do you get a new right-side panel after you hit create?  If so, the Import is a menu, not a button on the top of that panel.

Thank you. I was able to get to that screen. But ran into an error when importing, which is a separate issue.

Update-

I'm no longer going with the import wizard, at least for now, so no further help needed. 

Thanks.

Hi @Stephen Kairys 

Speaking from experience, the fastest and least stressing way to get a Google Doc (or a MS Word doc) into Confluence is the good old fashioned copy/paste.

Perhaps, but I had some issues with images (screenshots) not coming over correctly.

Yes, images are always an issue - in any migration, unless you have a dedicated conversion tool (and even then you need to do a sanity check).
