Summary
After exporting a space to HTML, the pages are included in a folder, but they are not organized in the same structure as the space's page tree. The exported content also includes the attachments that will be pointing to each of the IDs of the pages.
For importing purposes, it could be used to replicate the same page tree order, but this is not included in the file.
Solution
After exporting a space to HTML, the pages are included in a folder, but they are not organized in the same structure as the space's page tree. The export also includes attachments that point to the IDs of the pages. The page tree order is not included in the exported files.
Use one of the following existing methods to identify the page tree structure:
Open the
index.htmlfile included in the export and review the Available Pages section.When using the Custom Export method, take a screenshot of the page list and its structure before completing the export.
Use the index.html file
When exporting a space to HTML, a file called index.html is included in the export. Open this file in a browser to view the space details, including the Space Key, Name, Description, and creator.
Use the Available Pages section to view the whole page tree structure. This can be used to organize the files within the generated folder.
Take a screenshot of the "Custom Export" option
When selecting HTML for a space export, choose the Custom Export method. Before completing the export, take a screenshot of the full list of pages and their structure in the space's page tree.
