Confluence will only allow you to restore a space if a space by that name does not already exist on the site. If you already have a space with the identical name, you will need to delete it before importing.



To restore a space,

Go to the 'Administration Console' and click on 'Backup and Restore' in the left panel.

You can restore data in one of two ways:

  1. Upload a zipped backup to Confluence
    • Browse for the backup file.
    • Uncheck 'Build Index' if you want to create the index at a later stage.
    • Click 'Upload and Restore'.


  2. Restore a backup from the filesystem
    • Select the backup file from the form field displayed. If you do not see your backup file, make you sure that it has been copied into the /opt/java/src/confluence/deployments/conf.atlassian.com/home/restore directory.
    • Click 'Restore'.
