How to create a confluence page using a template from jira via REST API

[Bhupesh Nagda]

In case we have a template in confluence and want to create the page using the template then how should the template be passed in the API call?

Also how can I copy the URL of the page inside the JIRA ticket(maybe in description)? so that user can access the page directly from JIRA after it is created.

Thanks:)

I was able to figure this out. You need to pass the template as an inline xml within html inside pageBody parameter. It worked for me. I wish there was a structured way of doing this but this is working for me as of now !

Hi,

For me it's a huge line of code, maybe you can mention where you are stuck or need help.

This documentation is helpful.

Hi @Bhupesh Nagda 

When I run the code from script console, the output is coming as null and not creating confluence page.

So, could u please tell me where i am doing wrong?

Thanks

Hi Bhupesh

We launched a new app that allows you to create pages from templates through Jira Workflow post-function and store the Confluence page in a Jira customfield to apply more actions like:

Workflow postfuntions

• Update page permissions
• Update page content
• Update page title

Workflow conditions

• Check if page was modified after a certain status transition
• Check if page still has a placeholder

And so much more.

Please give it a try, I believe it would streamline alot of repeated effort on your team

Jira Confluence Workflow Extensions (JCWE) 

Give it a try I am confident you'll love it.

If you have any inquires or requests please drop me an email at admin@innovura.io
