      Issue Summary

      Excel (.xlsx) attachments migrated from Confluence Data Center to Confluence Cloud render differently on the production destination site:

      • Edit mode: Compact attachment links with Excel icon and filename.
      • Published/view mode: Oversized gray file-preview cards.
      • In narrow table cells, preview cards can overflow and disrupt the table layout.
      • Files remain accessible.
      • The issue was not observed after the test migration.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Migrate a Confluence Data Center page containing Excel attachment links inside table cells using CCMA.
      2. Open the migrated page in published/view mode.
      3. Compare the attachment rendering with edit mode.

      Expected Results

      Excel attachments should display as compact links in both modes and remain within table-cell boundaries.

      Actual Results

      On the production site, published/view mode displays large preview cards that truncate filenames and may overflow narrow table cells. Edit mode displays normal compact links.

      Workaround

      Re-upload the Excel file to a new page instead of using the attachment from the migrated page.
