Bulk Archive in Data Center using Scriptrunner for Confluence

[Jeff Scattini]

Hello all,

We need to archive a lot of old pages across multiple spaces. We have an Archive space set up to retain old information. I'm trying to use Scriptrunner for Confluence (data center version) to perform this action, but I'm not seeing any easy to reference information on bulk archiving. I see bulk copying and bulk deletion, but nothing on archiving. 

I had thought that maybe I'd need to copy pages to the archive and then delete them from the original space, but when going through the built-in script to copy pages, Scriptrunner won't give archive spaces as a destination option. 

Does anyone know if this is possible? 

Thanks in advance

@Jeff Scattini Have you tried the Better Content Archiving app?

It is an app developed for this exact use case, automatically archiving pages in the background. It will even preserve the original page hierarchy in the archive space:

It retains page history, attachments, comments, etc. Overall, it is a purpose-written app that results in very intuitive archives through high level of automation.
