Was your API token created with the same user with which you are logged in when trying from the browser tab?

Hi,

I keep receiving 404 error. So there must be something with my token and/or actor. Even though i am an admin on confluence, cannot access it? seems odd. Token looks ok, i know that APIs must be scoped, which is good. I have tried user ID and not email as a bearer, basic with email, user id and token.

Nothing works.

Using GET Page by ID

and i have tried to use it directly in browser. Returns:

So looks like it is returning values.
