Warning

Only one app from the Comala Document Management Family of apps should be installed and enabled on a Confluence Server instance at any one time.

  • to change between different products please uninstall your existing app and then install the new one

We also recommend that in a Cloud instance only one app is installed and enabled. If changing the Cloud app, workflow history is not retained and must be backed up prior to uninstalling the existing app.


Please keep the following in mind when switching between apps

History and Settings

On the Server/Data Center platform

  • the workflow history created with the previous app will be retained and be visible in the new app

  • if a global or space level setting applies in the new application it will generally keep the same value as it had in the previous app

 On the Cloud platform

  • if a global or space level setting applies in the new application it will generally keep the same value as it had in the previous app

If you are migrating from server to cloud, due to limitations in Atlassian Confluence Cloud the full workflow history is not currently retained. If you are migrating from server to cloud please review information about migration of the Comala Document Management app in our migration hub.

Workflow Changes

  • If you are moving to a product with more features (Comala Document Approval → Comala Document Control → Comala Document Management), the workflows that were previously applied to your spaces and pages will still be active.

  • If you are moving to a product with less features  (Comala Document Management → Comala Document Control → Comala Document Approval), workflows that were previously active on pages and space will no longer be active.  You must use the workflows that are included with the product that is installed.

If you are migrating from server to cloud please contact our support team.

Licensing

  • Changing to a new product requires the purchase of a new license/subscription

  • Trial licenses can be generated from the Atlassian marketplace
