How do I render a Confluence page programatically?

[Sammo Gabay]

When somebody creates a blog post in one of our Confluence pages, we want to e-mail the content to a distribution list. I have successfully created an event listener using ScriptRunner to call a mail-dispatch API and send the raw page content, which renders all right as HTML in an e-mail client. However, any macros in the content are in raw wiki code form and are not rendered. How can I use the Confluence Java API to render the page content to (X)HTML and send that to my e-mail service?

I am well versed with the Jira Java API and ScriptRunner but am newer to the Confluence API, but I have noticed much overlap.

Hi,

You can try something like this:

import static com.atlassian.jira.issue.IssueFieldConstants.COMPONENTS
def components = getFieldById(COMPONENTS)

I think I've found the answer myself:

def ComponentsField = getFieldById("components")
ComponentsField.setRequired(false); ComponentsField.setHidden(true); ComponentsField.setFormValue(null);
