Search in older versions

[Tamari Janelidze]

Hello, 

I have a question about search function.  Can  search find for a specific word, for example, that was written in older version of the page, but is removed from current version.    

Thanks!

Tamari,

Hello and welcome to Community! It's nice to have you.

It is not currently possible to search through Confluence page history, and to be honest, it doesn't appear to be in any upcoming roadmaps for the future.

There are two feature requests for this. One is for Server, and has already been closed as Won't Do:

• CONFSERVER-1281 Add ability to search historical pages and attachments

Thank you for raising this suggestion. We regret to inform you that due to limited demand, we have no plans to implement it in the foreseeable future.

The ticket for Cloud is currently still open, but as it has been many years since it was raised, it is likely that it may also not be considered.

• CONFCLOUD-1281 Add ability to search historical pages and attachments

I would still encourage you to follow-up on the requests with your feedback and input. 

Thank you for your understanding.

Regards,

Shannon
