Migrating Macros

Macros are integral parts of your pages and can be seamlessly migrated if you follow the correct procedures:

Ensure that the Cloud version of the Pulse app is installed in your Confluence Cloud instance.
Use the Cloud Migration Assistant to select the pages that contain macros for migration.

Handling entity ID vhanges

Migrating to Confluence Cloud involves adapting to new entity IDs assigned to pages, spaces, groups, and users, which might affect macro configurations.

Once migrated, you may need to manually adjust macro settings in edit mode to align with the new IDs. This step is crucial to maintaining the functionality of your macros in the Cloud environment.
