No Support for SharePoint Server (on-premise)

Since the Cloud version of the SharePoint Connector for Confluence supports only SharePoint Online but not SharePoint Server (on-premise) all SharePoint Connector for Confluence macros with SharePoint Server content (SharePoint documents or SharePoint lists) will stop working when migrated to Confluence Cloud.

Classic Style Macro Rendering in Page Edit Mode

In Confluence Cloud at page edit mode macros typically are rendered in a modern style. For SharePoint Connector for Confluence macros the modern style includes a preview of the embedded SharePoint document respectively list:

For migrated pages, however, the macros are rendered in the "classic style" (like they are at Confluence Server respectively Data Center):

This applies not only to migrated macro instances but also to newly added ones.

Fallbacks for not yet Supported Features

At current not all features of SharePoint Connector for Confluence available in the Server respectively Data Center version are supported in the Cloud version, too. For the already supported features see User's Guide (Cloud).

Document Macro: Display Option "Responsive View" 

For a migrated page, if in the original page the Display Option "Fixed View" or "Responsive View" was configured for a macro then in the migrated page the configured Display Option will be "Embed".

List Macro: Default View

In SharePoint Connector for Confluence Server/DC the default view configured for a list in SharePoint is applied the same for the SharePoint List macro in Confluence. SharePoint Connector for Confluence Cloud does not yet support this feature, i.e. there are always displayed the columns Title/Name, Modified and Modified By.
