Plan your Cloud migration
Documents to help you prepare to migrate your Atlassian Server or Data Center products.
Migrating Confluence users and groups in advance saves you time on the migration day. Users can also start working in cloud or learning the ropes as you continue to migrate spaces and data.
User migration journey
If you need additional info on planning, preparing users, and setting up cloud user management, have a look at the user migration guide.
To migrate Confluence users and groups separately, you need to migrate all of them. Choosing a subset of users is only supported when you migrate spaces at the same time.
After you migrate users, only the differences in your user base will be migrated during your next migration. However, the migration assistant will still show information that all users are being migrated – that’s not the case, it’s only the difference.
To migrate users and groups in advance, create a new migration plan.

Then, select the following options for your migration plan:
Data type | Option |

Spaces | Skip spaces |
Users and groups | Migrate all users and groups from the Confluence directory. |
Apps | None |
Once you’re done, check for errors in your migration. Learn how to check for errors in your migration plan
