get the contents of a wiki page

Takuya Iwamoto

Hi,

 

I want to know how to acquire the contents of a wiki page.

For example, if there is a wiki page like the following, what kind of API should be created?

https://my-domain.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/~1234567890/pages/1234567890/page_title

 

And, I want to know the API details.

Hi @Takuya Iwamoto,

It's actually not that difficult. You can simply use the id behind /pages in the following request: 

https://my-domain.atlassian.net//wiki/rest/api/content/1234567890

This will return all page metadata. If you'd like the content of the page (the actually text and layout), you should add the expand attribute to the url like this:

https://my-domain.atlassian.net//wiki/rest/api/content/1234567890?expand=body.view

The body expand value has several options:

• view
• export_view
• styled_view
• storage
• editor
• anonymous_export_view

Please do not forget you need authentication. More info about authenticating against Cloud REST APIs can be found here.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Maarten
