@Nurlan Izimbetov 

Just to clarify do you need to upload Attachment to Confluence or Jira? :)

The error says that you hit the JIRA url, so there must be smth wrong with the endpoint.

The following endpoint should work fine for adding attachments to Confluence as you have '/wiki' after the .net domain and the correct page ID should be present:

https://xxx.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/467370120/child/attachment

Please make sure the page ID is correct :)

i need upload attachment to Confluence Cloud.

as URL i'm using: https://xxx.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/870219811/child/attachment

Thank you.

Continue troubleshooting.

Hello @Nurlan Izimbetov ,

Seems like you missed the '/wiki' part for Confluence URL:

https://mydomain.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/11111111/child/attachment
