Which items are included in the XML site export?

• A. The site export includes spaces, including pages, blogs, comments, attachments, unpublished changes, and users and groups. It excludes add-ons.
• B. The site export includes spaces (including pages, blogs, comments, attachments) but excludes unpublished changes.
• C. The site export includes spaces (including pages, blogs, comments, attachments, unpublished changes), users and groups. Essentially everything in your site except add-ons.
• D. The site export includes only spaces and users.

Answer: (C)

The main idea is that an XML site export is meant to capture a complete snapshot of your Confluence site data so you can move or back it up, including both the content and the user access information. This export generates a record of all spaces and everything inside them—pages, blogs, comments, and attachments—along with unpublished changes so you don’t lose drafts or edits that haven’t been published yet. It also includes the user accounts and groups so permissions and access can be restored on another instance. Add-ons aren’t included because their data and configurations live outside the core site content and require separate handling. So the best description is that the export includes spaces (and all their content), unpublished changes, and users/groups—essentially everything on the site except add-ons. Other options fall short by omitting some content types, omitting unpublished changes, or implying add-ons are included.
