How to move page from confluence 1 to confluence 2?
Asked by Chandrasekaran Prema:

I am trying to move a parent page with a set of child page from one space to another. It seems that the space I am trying to move from is Confluence 2 and the space I want to move to is Confluence 2. Need support.

Welcome to the community !!

Confluence 1 and Confluence 2 are cloud version (url will have atlassian.net) OR it is self hosted instances?

If its self hosted instances, does it have same confluence version ?

**Confluence 1 URL:** <https://inside-docupedia.bosch.com/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=1977293074>  

**Confluence 2 URL:** <https://inside-docupedia.bosch.com/confluence2/display/BGSWFitQuality/Fit.Quality>

1. You need to export space from **confluence1** .   
   i.e Go to space settings --\> Content Tools --\> XML --\> Custom Export --\> Select the required pages and child pages and click **Export**
2. Now go to **confluence2** , Admin settings --\> General configuration --\> Backup \& Restore --\> Upload the xml file under "Upload a site or space export file", uncheck "Build Index" and click Import.
   * If the xml file is huge, upload the file into server c**onfluencehome/restore** location in confluence 2.
3. Once the import is done under **confluence 2** , open same space (page url will be same as confluence 1) and move the required pages under [BGSWFitQuality/Fit.Quality.](https://inside-docupedia.bosch.com/confluence2/display/BGSWFitQuality/Fit.Quality)
4. Delete the imported space in **confluence2** after moving the pages under required space.

**Please note:**

* You can only import a space into the same or later Confluence version. You **can't import a space into an** **earlier** version.
* You need space export permission on **confluence 1** space  
* You need confluence admin permission on **confluence 2**
* Confluence2 should **not** have same space key as **Confluence1** . In case confluence 1 and 2 has same space keys, [move the pages](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/move-copy-and-hide-pages/) OR [copy the pages](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/copy-a-page-139013.html) in **confluence1** to new space and then start the step 1.
