Publish only approved Confluence pages to another space

To publish only approved Confluence pages, open the space's Publishing page, select Space settings, open the Maintenance tab and select Publish approved, then confirm. Every page whose approval is currently Approved is published. Pages with no approval, or a pending or rejected one, are skipped, and folders are created only as needed.


#Before you start

You need

Why

An app with both Approval and Publishing

The button only appears there.

Space administrator of the source and target spaces

A bulk run checks both.


#Steps

  1. Open the space and select Capable Publishing in the sidebar (in the Suite, Capable, then Publishing). Under Manage, select Space settings.

  2. Select the Maintenance tab.

  3. Under Publish approved pages, select Publish approved.

  4. In Publish Approved Pages, select Publish Approved.

  5. Watch the progress on the Dashboard and check Audit log when it finishes.


#What happens next

Every approved page in the space is included, however many there are. It is a good way to do the first load of a controlled document space, then switch on Publish on approval to keep it current.
