I want to update a page via POSTMAN

[Leeooos]

hi, i want to update my confluence page created via postman.

i get the below details from the website

in the below what is ID? is that the page ID? which we get from Page Information

curl -u admin:admin -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"id":"3604482","type":"page", "title":"new page","space":{"key":"TST"},"body":{"storage":{"value": "<p>This is the updated text for the new page</p>","representation":"storage"}}, "version":{"number":2}}' http://localhost:8080/confluence/rest/api/content/3604482 | python -mjson.tool

Dear @Leeooos ,

yes: 3604482 is the page ID of the page you want to update. Don't forget to increase the version number by one (current page version = 2, then new version = 3).

For what is that "python "mjson.tool"? The curl request doesn't require this.

So long

Thomas

Dear @Leeooos ,

I have no clue about this error message, but in your request there is the parent page missing. This is not documented and was one year ago required to create and update pages.

{"id":"169052728","type":"page",
"title":"NewPage", "ancestors": ["id":"<the parent page id>"],"space":{"key":"TST"},"body":{"storage":{"value":
"<p>This is the updated text for the new page</p>","representation":"storage"}},
"version":{"number":2}}

No guarantee, but for me this worked.

So long

Thomas
