In my organization, there is a weblink where all department hardware are listed. I am able to access the link and filter my department hardware. But, It requires firewall access and special permission to access my organization link from my customer location. Customers are not interested to raise firewall access every time and see our department hardware in external link.

We both have confluence link access as common page. My customer is requesting to filter our department hardware details from external link and display them in confluence page to see the hardware.

Till now I know how to use confluence but no experience of these kind of activities. So, I don't know how to get contents from external link and display the hardware details to confluence page.

Is it possible using REST API? or any other method available?

Could you please support me, how to achieve this to display external weblink contents to confluence page?.

@Venkat Welcome to the Atlassian community

If the page was publicly available you could use an iFrame to add the content to the page.  Since the content is behind a firewall any of the macros that would allow you to display the content will not work.  You could use the Confluence API to push content to a page.  You would have to programmatically take the content from your companies website and push it to a page.  You could update the Confluence page nightly through the API to ensure that it stays up to date.  Confluence API information:
