How do I bulk delete or move pages in cloud Confluence ?
Asked by Fakhfouri Vahid:

I would like to delete a group of pages or move them instead of doing so page by page. Is there a way to do so on the cloud version of Confluence?

How can I suggest this feature for Confluence please?

It's so painful ?


author: Christal Vandecar
body: If we could simply bulk rename pages (add a suffix), that would help. The copy pages feature adds a prefix, which is not very helpful. Makes navigation really unusable.

*(My favourite one was being able to change Project Lead in Next-gen projects... the JAC ticket claimed it was not easy to accomplish and was low prio... but then a Marketplace vendor built an app in about 2hr and released it for free, just to show how "difficult" it was. Now THAT was hilarious. laugh ?)*

body: [@Christal Vandecar](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4556984)we had this same problem with titles so we built an app that includes a bulk add "Page title prefix/suffix". One of a few features of [Easy Toolbox](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1226657/easy-toolbox-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview), includes a bulk find and replace. It's fairly new, we are adding more and more features like bulk label editing. It's all built in Forge so zero security concerns.

Bulk deletion/ move of Confluence pages is not directly possible.

Workaround is to create a temporary space then move all the pages into that space. Finally delete the space.

Thanks for the comment but don't you think that deleting one by one is easier than creating a space, moving one by one and deleting the space?

In Jira, there is a very useful bulk change function. I would need the same in Confluence.

Yes, a bulk operation as in Jira would be great, but unfortunately that is not available in Confluence as of now :-(
