Import and export

Move schemas and entries with Simple Metadata packages.

WORKFLOWS

1

Export

Schemas, entries and history can be exported as a Simple Metadata package in JSON or YAML from their respective administrative views.

2

Import

Import currently creates schemas only. If an imported package contains entries, they are previewed as ignored; this prevents accidental placement of page-specific data on another site.

What a package contains

Schemas, entries and entry history can be exported from their administrative views as a Simple Metadata package in JSON or YAML. Use exports for review, backup of a workflow definition, or controlled transfer between sites.

Import previews the package before it changes anything. It creates schemas only; entries and history are shown as ignored because they are tied to pages on the source Confluence site.

Move a workflow safely

Import the schema, review its fields, defaults and permissions on the target site, then place new capture macros on target pages. Do not expect a schema import to recreate page-level evidence or macros from the original site.
