Issue Summary

Short URLs or (Share URLs) point to previous site after Cloud migration

Steps to Reproduce

• On the source instance, go to any page and click on Share
• Copy the link
• Edit a page and save the URL in the text
• Migrate to another Cloud instance

Expected Results

• URLs are updated to point to the page on the destination site

Actual Results

• URLs are unique to the page

Workaround

To resolve this manually, you can:

• Go to the same page on the new site
• Get the Share URL
• Edit the page with the old URL
• Replace the URL with the new one

Notes

Share URL does not seem to be based on the Content ID of a page, and always redirects to the previous instance even if the domain in the URL is replaced. So this fix is different than the Tiny URL fix which we do have a bulk workaround for.

The share URL is generated by sending a POST request to this endpoint:

• https://site.atlassian.net/gateway/api/atl-link/create

This returns something like this:

• {"shortUrl":"https://site.atlassian.net/l/c/iKC9ewU9","fullUrl":"https://site.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/MIG/pages/1099719725/Page+Title?atlOrigin=MxYjAyYmMxNzkiLCJwIjoiYyJ9","linkId":"iKC9ewU9"}
  

And the URL changes on each new share.
