Migration Path
When migrating your Confluence spaces to Cloud using the native Atlassian tool, just make sure that your .scc attachments are included in the migration. These attachments are where your Spreadsheet data is saved. All you need to know about migration process is describe through Atlassian dedicated documentation.
Once your Confluence migration is done, you will instantly be able to resume your work in Elements Spreadsheet, exactly where you left it.
Important note about the Confluence editor
Using the Cloud editor is required for third-party apps such as Spreadsheet. If you are currently using the legacy editor, Spreadsheet macros may not function correctly.
As the legacy editor will be deprecated in April 2026, we recommend switching to the Cloud editor if possible. We would be happy to assist you in assessing this transition.
If you have any doubt or question contact our support team. We'll assist you in your migration.
