Adding interactive elements via the python API

I'm trying to automatically update a page on my company's wiki with the contents of some database tables. All of the content is available, but it's... a lot of content. I'm using the atlassian-python-api python package to send a rendered jinja2 template to the page, via the "update_or_create_wiki()" method. However, anything interactive (with an id="" tag, a button, or <details>) either does not function properly or does not appear at all. I don't believe I can write my own javascript  for this since I don't have access to the <head>, so I've been trying to write everything in in-line HTML. The <details> tag would have been perfect but it doesn't appear to actually hide any content. 

How can I autonomously add an interactive element? Do I need another method from the Confluence class? Or is this a jinja rendering issue?

Hi @Ethan.Ringel ,

welcome to the Atlassian Community!

For such detailed and technical question you should try to ask about it in the Developers Community - here is a Confluence category: https://community.developer.atlassian.com/c/confluence/6
