Q&A

This page answers the questions customers usually ask before they use acp2md in a real workflow.

What is acp2md designed for?

acp2md is the single-page converter in the Climakers Confluence toolset.

Use it when you need a controlled export of one page for backup, audit evidence, legal review, AI ingestion, migration design, or any workflow where precision matters more than bulk coverage.

If your goal is to export an entire space or a documentation estate, use acs2md instead.

Does acp2md modify Confluence?

No. acp2md is read-only by design.

It does not create, update, delete, or reorganize pages, spaces, properties, or permissions in Confluence. The product only performs read-only API requests and writes the resulting output to your own environment.

Which Confluence editions are supported?

acp2md supports Atlassian Confluence Cloud only.

It does not support Confluence Server or Confluence Data Center.

When should I choose acp2md instead of acs2md?

Choose acp2md when the unit of work is one page.

• You need a focused export with minimal review scope.
• You want to inspect or convert a specific page before a broader migration.
• You need a page-level Markdown asset for legal, compliance, or support workflows.

Choose acs2md when the unit of work is an entire space, a hierarchy, or a repeatable bulk synchronization workflow.

Which operating systems are covered by the released binaries?

The current released guidance covers macOS and Linux release artifacts.

Windows release artifacts are not currently documented as published builds in this doc set.

What should I do before my first real export?

Use this order:

1. Install the binary.
2. Create the configuration file.
3. Configure Confluence credentials.
4. Activate the license.
5. Run acp2md doctor.
6. Run a small real command such as page get or page convert against a known page.

For the detailed walkthrough, see the Installation and First-Time Setup page.

How do I get help if something fails?

Start with the built-in checks:

1. Run acp2md doctor to validate configuration, connectivity, and license state.
2. Reproduce the problem with a small command you can inspect safely.
3. Generate a diagnostic bundle with acp2md support.
4. Contact Climakers at support@climakers.com.

The full support workflow is documented on the Support page.

Where should I look next?

• Use Overview if you need the product positioning and business outcomes.
• Use Configuration for config-file structure and credential setup.
• Use Convert Pages when you are ready to export Markdown.
• Use Get Pages when you need native content retrieval instead of conversion.
• Use Workflows & Recipes for production-style examples.
