Using API to get page content by label

[Gavin Ireland]

I want to extract content from a Confluence Cloud space, by label, so it can be re-used in another website elsewhere. Can that be done via the API?

Hello Gavin and welcome to the Community!

The simplest way to access Confluence pages by label would be to use the endpoint called “Search Content by CQL”. More on this endpoint may be found at GET /wiki/rest/api/content/search.

This endpoint will allow you to search using CQL with your API call. This allows you to filter based on the anything available within the CQL functions. More on CQL may be found at Advanced searching using CQL.

A sample of how this would look is as follows:

http://confluence.server.com/rest/api/content/search?cql=type=page%20AND%20label=SOMETHING

I hope this proves helpful in your ability to find content by label within Confluence.

The sample url above did not work for me. I had to include wiki in the url for it to work.

This worked for me 

http://confluence.server.com/wiki/rest/api/content/search?cql=type=page%20AND%20label=SOMETHING
