Learn how to seamlessly migrate the Mosaic Round Rectangle macro from Confluence Data Center to Cloud with our step-by-step guide. Ensure a smooth transition with clear instructions and best practices.
This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of migrating the Mosaic Round Rectangle macro from Confluence Data Center (DC) to Confluence Cloud.
Pre-Migration - Prepare for Migration
1. Audit of Macro Usage
As with all migrations, it is best to identify all pages that use Mosaic macros, particularly those that use nested macros. Our Mosaic Usage Report tool can help you do this by listing all pages containing Mosaic macros and showing their migration readiness status.
To use the Mosaic macro reporting tool:
Click the Cog>General Configuration in the top-right corner to open Confluence Administration.
Navigate to Mosaic Macros.
Click Mosaic Usage Report.
Click Start scan. The scan will begin.
Once the scan is complete, click to Download Report.
2. Review Nesting
Confluence Cloud imposes stricter nesting (where one macro inside another) limits than Confluence DC. Make a note of any pages that contain nested Mosaic macros, as these may need adjustments after migration.
Pages with extensive nesting, especially when combining third-party and Mosaic macros, may not migrate correctly. Contact us for tailored support if this applies to your content.
3. Assess CSS Style Sheets
If your Round Rectangle macros rely on the CSS Stylesheet Macro, be aware that this styling may not fully transfer to the cloud Editor.
Review pages for any custom CSS.
Document where these are used, as manual changes may be required.
Migration - Migrating pages with Round Rectangle Macros
1. Run the Atlassian Confluence Cloud Migration Tool
Pages are imported into the new Cloud site using the Cloud Editor.
2. Review Migrated Pages
Once the migration is complete, open the migrated pages that contain Mosaic Round Rectangle macros.
Round Rectangle macros display as expected in the Cloud Editor, and you are able to edit the text in the macro.
Post-Migration - Rebuild using Confluence Panel Macros
The Round Rectangle macro has been deprecated. We suggest you rebuild all Mosaic Round Rectangle macros using the built-in Confluence panel macros.
