How can I update a table in a page via API?

Matt_m4ymsn

I'm having difficulty understanding how I can update a specific table within Confluence without having to update the entire page or is that my only option?

def update_page(id):
  url = "https://company-confluence.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/{}"
  payload = json.dumps({
    "body": {
      "storage": {
        "value": '<table border="1" class="dataframe"> <thead> <tr style="text-align: right;"> <th>Circuit Type</th> <th>Provider</th> <th>Bandwidth</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>MPLS</td> <td>Verizon1</td> <td>100M</td> </tr> <tr> <td>DIA</td> <td>Spectrum</td> <td>300M</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>',
        "representation": "storage"
      }
    }
  })
  headers = {
    'Authorization': 'Basic basdfklhjasjikdhf34j;l',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  }
  response = requests.request("PUT", url.format(id), headers=headers, data=payload)
data = update_page(id)
if data == 200:
  print("Success")

Hi @Matt  and welcome!

Unfortunately, table is part of the page content so you need to update the whole page.

Hope this helps,
