    Description

      Issue Summary

      There is a myriad of macros that can be used in the Confluence Server/DC that are not compatible with the Cloud environment.

      When you migrate a space that contains pages with macros that are not compatible with Cloud the macro breaks and start showing a warning box with "unknown macro":

      An example:

      Expected Results

      The incompatible macros code would be stripped during import, leaving the text part inside the macro intact.

      Actual Results

      A warning box is shown saying the macro is unknown.

      Workaround

      You can remove the macros on the server prior to migrating to the Cloud.
