Summary

This KB will help us to generate a list of all pages from the Confluence database if those pages contain a specific link pattern.

Solution

Always back up your data before performing any modifications to the database. If possible, test any alter, insert, update, or delete SQL commands on a staging server first.

SQL query mentioned below can be used to fetch all pages that contain specific link patterns. For example, the following query will  fetch all the pages containing the  *https://intuit.abc.xyz.com* link in the page body

select c.Contenttype,c.title,c.content_status,s.spacename from content c join bodycontent b on b.contentid = c.contentid
join spaces s on c.spaceid = s.spaceid
where b.body like '%intuit.abc.xyz.com%';
