copy page tree in internal confluence to external confluence

[Monette Warren]

Our company uses confluence for internal procedures and would like to one copy page tree (portion) for external confluence without copying other page trees.

Can you help??

Dear @Monette Warren ,

welcome to the community.

When you do not want to spend money in add-ons, I can strongly recommend to use the REST API to read 'content' from one confluence and create it in another confluence. Of cause you will need some coding skills (PHP, Python, Java, ...).

Can you share what add-ons I would need and how much money would they cost?

I have a full manual on a internal confluence and copy it to an external version of confluence.

What would be my best solution?

Is there a online class available to learn this process?

Thanks,

Monette

Dear @Monette Warren ,

I will not make any suggestion not to promote any plugin vendor. Have a look at this link

You mean on doing this with REST on your own? In the end it's not a big deal. How to access REST interfaces is straight forward. Apart from this you need to read data into objects / variables, convert and process them. For that you need coding skills. Before you start, you should figure out, if you can manage this. If you start at ZERO, I recommend to start with PHP. There you get quick results. There are loads of tutorials on the net on PHP. 

Have a look at my article. Its about REST an PHP, but with JIRA. If you understand the concept, you can do for Confluence, too.
