      Issue Summary

      After migrating both Jira and Confluence from Server/DC to Cloud, links of format "https://jira.company.com/secure/attachment/235524/image-2026-07-23-09-15-34-930.png" refer to the existing server instance.

      Scenario

      • Jira Server/DC -> Confluence Cloud migration
      • Confluence Server/DC -> Confluence Cloud migration

      Affects products

      • Confluence

      Steps to Reproduce

      Jira server

      1. Create a Jira issue
      2. Add an attachment
      3. Copy the link of the attachment, in format:
        https://jira.company.com/secure/attachment/235524/image-2026-07-23-09-15-34-930.png

        Confluence server

      4. Create a Confluence page
      5. For the contents on the page, ensure there is a link which refers to a Jira attachment. In the storage format, the content will be:
        https://jira.company.com/secure/attachment/235524/image-2026-07-23-09-15-34-930.png
        

        Migration

      6. Migrate both Jira and Confluence to Cloud
      7. Run link fixing
      8. Check link

      Expected Results

      Links are updated after migration to redirect to the appropriate/corresponding Jira attachment URL

      Actual Results

      Outgoing links still refer to existing Jira Server
