Regarding this, do you have firm information on the removal of WebDAV?
Specifically which versions (server/cloud/etc) of Confluence, and which
releases (and expected dates) will be affected?
Our writing/publishing team doesn't require this, as we upload and retrieve
content via the REST API after converting DocBook->Confluence format XML
via a stylesheet. But other teams (end power users who like to do global
changes, and another team who integrates our content elsewhere) do use
WebDAV, so your comment is of interest to me.
Kind regards,
Helen.
