Details

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Summary

      Site Backups are no longer downloadable via /webdav/backupmanager, but downloadable instead via the temp directory (with URLs like /wiki/download/temp/filestore/ebe7bb18-0229-4907-a86f-f62415e9c135 ). The Site backup itself, is simply named only as Site_Backup.zip (which is ambiguous, and does not have timestamp appended). So essentially, what we need is:

      1. Documentation on the changes
      2. A better filename for the site backup file itself, with timestamp appended for ease of administration

      This is important for customers managing their backups with scripts to automatically generate the backup and download it.
