You can leverage ACLI capabilities, using Run, Export ,copy actions and more to bulk automate across operations, as shown in General for all applications, Confluence-specific actions and Jira-specific actions.

General for all applications

...

  1. Multiple Run actions that allow bulk automation across many application objects and generic support:

    1. runFromCsv - run actions for each row

    2. runFromSql - run action for each row of a database query

    3. runFromJson - run actions based on JSON data like arrays

  2. Database support for all list actions - the ability to automatically create or update database tables from application data.
    The data is useful for analysis for planning migrations and understanding your application data.
    For example, analyzing users, groups, and space permissions or looking for obsolete data that can be removed before migration.
    Use database support to drive migration automation with ACLI actions (and runFromSql) or other tools that use databases.
    -> Database support is particularly useful in cross application migration where data needs to be restructured for the target application.

  3. Test staging and migrations with ACLI script to retrieve data and verify against expected results either manually or in formal tests using Gint. Also, ad-hoc testing and automations to fix up migration errors to avoid error prone manual updates.

  4. Help with instance management for test and staging instances and applications using UPM actions like getAppList , installApp , addLicense, runFromAppList.

...

Confluence provides In addition, both Confluence and Jira provide specific actions that can be used in migration activities, as shown in Table Confluence actions.the Tables Confluence actions and Jira-specific actions.
