How do I set the Expand macro with html via the api?

Isaac Yep

I would expect pushing this to the api:

<details>
  <summary> Click me to expand </summary>
  <p> I'm expanded now! Hooray! </p>
</details>

to set the Expand macro. It does not. That makes me sad.

How do I set the Expand macro with html ( i'm using the API's python wrapper, if that matters).

For anyone reading this, the answer is:

<ac:structured-macro ac:name="expand">
  <ac:parameter ac:name="title">Expand me...</ac:parameter>
  <ac:rich-text-body>
    
<p>This text is hidden until you expand the section.</p>
  </ac:rich-text-body>
</ac:structured-macro>

which has been left out of recent versions of documentation. I found it in version 5 docs:

Hi @Isaac Yep

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Please have look to https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/confluence-rest-api-examples/ for confluence rest api examples.

Also, check https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/html-macro-38273085.html and see any of these helps you in anyway.

Thank you,
Ashish

@Ashish Bijlwan
Neither of those answer my question.

My question is, when I push html via api to a confluence page, it works just fine, however specifically for the Expand macro, the <details><summary> tags don't manifest into an Expand component.

For rich text things like:

{expand}hello world{expand}

does the page have to be in 'representation=wiki' ?

Basically, how do I define an Expand macro from html markup, if it's even possible at all?
