Is it possible to create an automation to update Confluence pages via copy?

The issue:
We have a separate space for our chatbot to ingest content and provide replies to plain language questions.

What we would like to do is have an automation run once daily to copy the contents of a page in a different space (the Single Source of Truth) into a pre-made/statically-named page in the AI's space.

So basically, users could update in their spaces as necessary, and once per day those updates would get pushed automatically to the AI's clone pages.

I've tried using the Copy Page function and so far all it does is create a new page at the parent destination rather than overwriting the existing page.

Hi @Joe_Noel 

I do not believe there are Confluence automation actions to do that.  Instead, your rule would need to call the REST API endpoint with the Send Web Request action to update the page(s) content.

However this would be one page at a time.  If you needed to perform this type of synchronization with a large number of pages, perhaps investigate the Atlassian marketplace to learn if there is an app to make that easier.

Kind regards,
Bill

Thank you, Bill. I’ll experiment with the API next.
