This is the documentation for ConfiForms CLOUD app

ConfiForms app on Atlassian marketplace


At the moment ConfiForms cloud does not have all the capabilities that are present in ConfiForms app for server/data center

This is due to the differences between the platforms (technical) and user experience (behavioural)


Documentation on ConfiForms app macros for server/data center can be found here: Documentation


Missing functionality in ConfiForms cloud

  • Rendering of nested ListViews (where one ListView has another ListView in it's macro body)
  • Rendering of 3rd party (dynamic) macros in ConfiForms IFTTT to send email


Please refer to the matrix below to see the differences between the versions of ConfiForms app.

Recovery API uses the same format for the file, but you have to be aware that user information in cloud and server is stored using different IDs and using recovery APIs in cloud with server RAW export (or vice versa) may not be what you are expecting

Look at automatic migration options ConfiForms now offers - Migration from server to cloud
