Known issues and limitations

Missing attachment file ID on Server

For some Confluence Server versions / configurations, the attachment file ID is not returned by the API (#39).

In that case, {attachment_file_id} automatically falls back to the content id, so the default export.attachment_path template still produces unique filenames out of the box.

If you prefer human-readable filenames over numeric IDs, set export.attachment_path to use {attachment_title}{attachment_extension}, e.g.:

cme config set export.attachment_path='{space_name}/attachments/{attachment_title}{attachment_extension}'

Connection issues behind proxy or VPN

There might be connection issues if your Confluence Server is behind a proxy or VPN (#38). If you experience issues, help to fix this is appreciated.
