MIGRATE A WORKSPACECONFLUENCE

Confluence import: full spaces in 10 minutes

Import a Confluence space into Raccoon Page in about ten minutes. Page tree and attachments preserved, common macros become native callouts and code blocks.

TL;DR. Export your Confluence space as HTML, sign up for Raccoon Page, drop the zip into the import wizard. About ten minutes later you have a Confluence-shaped wiki that renders every page in under a second. Macros land as best-effort. Page tree, attachments, and authorship survive intact.

What we don't import (yet)

  • Atlassian-only macros like JIRA issue lists or roadmap macros. They land as a comment block with the original source — you decide what to do with them.
  • Templates from Confluence's template library. Export the template page itself; we treat it as a regular page on import.
  • Inline comments older than 2023. Confluence's HTML export drops them; this is upstream of us.
  • User mentions tied to Confluence accounts. They land as plain-text names. Re-mention people in your team and the link resolves.

The step-by-step

  1. In Confluence, go to Space settings → Content tools → Export. Pick HTML as the format and select the whole space.
  2. Sign up for a Raccoon Page Team trial. Create a space.
  3. Drop the zip into the import wizard. It validates the manifest and queues a background job. Close the tab if you want — you get a notification when it's done.
  4. Review the import: count of pages, attachments preserved, macros translated, anything that landed as a comment block.
  5. Test a search, a deep page, and the navigation.

Most teams finish in under ten minutes. Single spaces in the 5,000-page range still come in inside the median.

Things people ask

Will my page IDs match?
No. Page IDs are reassigned on import; internal links get rewritten to the new IDs. External URLs that point at your old Confluence instance are not rewritten — those still go to Confluence until you redirect the domain.
What if my export is huge?
Single spaces in the 5,000-page range come in inside the 10-minute median. Above that, expect 15–25 minutes; the import job runs in the background, you don't have to babysit.
Can I roll back?
Yes. Delete the imported space. Your Confluence export zip is still on your machine and the import is non-destructive on the Confluence side.
Why is the importer Team and Business only?
The import pipeline is more expensive to run than a typical Free workload. If you're a single person testing the waters, start with the Obsidian importer on Free.
