Updating a page via REST API does not work

Luka Simon Thies

Hey there

I want to update a page with the REST API. 
Currently, I use a GET to collect the current data of the page, then change the body and version number and try to use a PUT to update the page.

What intrigues me is that I can update the Title of the page, but nothing inside the body.

In my tests I used a curl like this:

curl -u email:api_token -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://XXX.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/<ID>?expand=body.storage -d @Data_file


But if someone has a python solution, that would also be appreciated

I just solved my own error

While I updated the "represenation" to "storage", I left the body still as "view".

 

After changing that to "storage" as well, the page was updated successfully
