REST interface	Tree View Cloud does NOT offer a REST interface.
Tree View - show all watches macro	The macro does NOT exist in the Cloud version.

Status after the using Atlassian’s migration assistant

After you have migrated content the watches on each page are as on Server / Data Center. However a user will not have any active tree watches.

Using Tree Views’s migration support

1. Export the tree watches into JSON

You must have Tree View version 1.13.0 or higher on your Server / Data Center instance

Please navigate to:

<<your server url>>/rest/treeviewrest/1.0/migration

like

https://example.com/rest/treeviewrest/1.0/migration

and copy the JSON file you get into the clipboard.

2. Open the migration support page

Please navigate to

<<your cloud url>>/plugins/servlet/ac/de.edrup.confluence.plugins.tree-view/tree-view-migration

like

3. Paste the JSON content and execute the migration

Paste the JSON content into the text area and simulate or execute the migration.

In case the migration of some Tree Watches fails the rest will be migrated anyhow => just repeat step #3 multiple times in case you are migrating space by space.

The Confluence Cloud index needs some time to index the newly migrated spaces. In some cases you need to wait 1-2 hours before all pages can be found!
