How can i download an Excel from Page with Rest API.

Mahesh Pawar

I have tried successfully  updating an excel attachment in conflunecn page using

""#REST Call in Python

headers = {
    'X-Atlassian-Token': 'nocheck',
    }
    files = {
        'file': (filePath, open(filePath, 'rb')),
    }
    data={"comment":"testing rest"}
    response = requests.post('http://conflunec server:port/rest/api/content/pageID/child/attachment/attachmentID/data', data=data,headers=headers, files=files, auth=('username', password))

""

But can i download the same Excel using REST api calls??

*Confluence version 6.3.3.
