      Issue Summary

      Currently, Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant doesn't support the migration of Team Calendars and it would require the manual works:

      Suggested Solution

      • Support the export/import of Team Calendar data
      • Provide the REST API to bulk export/create the calendars
      • Ability to migrate Team Calendar data using Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant

      Why this is important

      • Team Calendar is one of our most used plugins and it could be hundreds or thousands of calendars created within the instance
      • It's not feasible to manually export/import hundreds or thousands of calendars
      • When we perform the migration from Server to Cloud, we are hoping to minimize the data loss after the migration.

      Workaround

      Use the team-calendars migration script. Full details are in the README of the script.
      Please note that this is not an officially supported tool/script, so this is intended to be used as is with thorough testing until an official migration method is released
      Please see the README for details on supported and unsupported calendar events. For instance, Jira Project Events are not migrated.

            Yes, we can confirm that this update replaces the cumbersome database script steps that had to be performed before.

            (Still a pitty, that CCMA cannot migrate proteced pages or spaces that a CMMA admin has no permission to!!)

            Thanks for the update, Sai!

            We've completed initial testing and look forward to utilising this functionality in our migration phases soon.

            Hello,

            I'm thrilled to announce that Team Calendars can now be migrated with CCMA (Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant) as a General Availability (GA) feature. This feature is available starting with CCMA version 3.9.1 and all subsequent versions. Learn more about the announcement here.

            For more details on how Team Calendars are migrated, visit our support documentation. Feel free to respond on this ticket if you have any follow-up questions.

            Cheers,

            3.8.x was the latest version we had at the time of writing. I've just checked the 3.9.1 release notes, which state: "Version 3.9.1 includes the ability to migrate Team Calendars together with your spaces."

            We'll be running a few test migrations to validate functionality, but it looks like the solution has come just in time for our largest migration phases!

            Mac, the CCMA 3.9.0 was released, so what is the issue? Does it simply not work or what?

            Howdy team, really hoping there's some traction behind this as a proper, supported solution was promised for Q4 '23.

            +1 to 6de0d9f7041f.  We have an in-progress migration that needs this.

            Hi, 
            as i know yesterday should be released new CCMA with team calendars migration. I see that it didn't happen. Can you tell us when it will be released? That determine when we will migrate to prod because we're waiting for this solution instead of using scripts as workaround ( which not were working smoothly ). If it wont be released to customers till end of this week we need to choose scripts workaround so my question is, should we wait ?

            Can you give an update, please?

            It's hard to communicate to customers that data from an Atlassian developed plugin is not automatically migrated to Confluence Cloud.
