This document describes the REST API and resources provided by Confluence. The REST APIs are for developers who want to integrate Confluence into their application and for administrators who want to script interactions with the Confluence server.
Confluence's REST APIs provide access to resources (data entities) via URI paths. To use a REST API, your application will make an HTTP request and parse the response. The response format is JSON. Your methods will be the standard HTTP methods like GET, PUT, POST and DELETE.
Because the REST API is based on open standards, you can use any web development language to access the API.
URIs for the Confluence REST API resource have the following structure:
With context: http://host:port/context/rest/api/resource-name
Or without context: http://host:port/rest/api/resource-name
Example with context: http://example.com:8080/confluence/rest/api/space/ds
Example without context: http://confluence.myhost.com:8095/rest/api/space/ds
In order to minimise network traffic from the client perspective, our API uses a technique called expansion.
You can use the expand
query parameter to specify a comma-separated list of entities that you want
expanded, identifying each entity by a given identifier. For example, the value space,attachments
requests the expansion of entities for which the expand identifier is space
and
attachments
.
You can use the .
dot notation to specify expansion of entities within another entity. For example
body.view
would expand the content body
and expand the view
rendering of
it.
This documents the current REST API provided by Confluence.

REST wrapper for the {@link ChildContentService}.
parameter | value | description |
---|---|---|
id |
a string containing the id of the content to retrieve children for |
Returns a map of the direct children of a piece of Content. Content can have multiple types of children - for example a Page can have children that are also Pages, but it can also have Comments and Attachments.
The {@link ContentType}(s) of the children returned is specified by the "expand" query parameter in the request
- this parameter can include expands for multiple child types.
If no types are included in the expand parameter, the map returned will just list the child types that are available
to be expanded for the {@link Content} referenced by the "id" path parameter.

Returns a JSON representation of a list of attachment Content entities
Add one or more attachments to a Confluence Content entity, with optional comments.
Comments are optional, but if included there must be as many comments as there are files, and the comments must be in the same order as the files.
This resource expects a multipart post. The media-type multipart/form-data is defined in RFC 1867. Most client libraries have classes that make dealing with multipart posts simple. For instance, in Java the Apache HTTP Components library provides a MultiPartEntity that makes it simple to submit a multipart POST.
In order to protect against XSRF attacks, because this method accepts multipart/form-data, it has XSRF protection on it. This means you must submit a header of X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck with the request, otherwise it will be blocked.
The name of the multipart/form-data parameter that contains attachments must be "file"
A simple example to attach a file called "myfile.txt" to the container with id "123", with a comment included:
curl -D- -u admin:admin -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck" -F "file=@myfile.txt" -F "comment=This is my File" http://myhost/rest/api/content/123/child/attachment
A example to attach a file called "myfile.txt" to the container with id "123", with a comment, and set the minorEdits flag to be true:
curl -D- -u admin:admin -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck" -F "file=@myfile.txt" -F "minorEdit=true" -F "comment=This is my File" http://myhost/rest/api/content/123/child/attachment
An example to attach the same file, with no comment:
curl -D- -u admin:admin -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck" -F "file=@myfile.txt" http://myhost/rest/api/content/123/child/attachment
Example request URI(s):
http://example.com/rest/api/content/1234/child/attachment
available response representations:
Returned if the requested content is not found, the user does not have permission to view it, or if the attachments exceeds the maximum configured attachment size.

parameter | value | description |
---|---|---|
id |
a string containing the id of the attachments content container |
|
attachmentId |
the id of the attachment to upload a new file for |
Update the binary data of an Attachment, and optionally the comment and the minor edit field.
This adds a new version of the attachment, containing the new binary data, filename, and content-type.
When updating the binary data of an attachment, the comment related to it together with the field that specifies if it's a minor edit can be updated as well, but are not required. If an update is considered to be a minor edit, notifications will not be sent to the watchers of that content.
This resource expects a multipart post. The media-type multipart/form-data is defined in RFC 1867. Most client libraries have classes that make dealing with multipart posts simple. For instance, in Java the Apache HTTP Components library provides a MultiPartEntity that makes it simple to submit a multipart POST.
In order to protect against XSRF attacks, because this method accepts multipart/form-data, it has XSRF protection on it. This means you must submit a header of X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck with the request, otherwise it will be blocked.
The name of the multipart/form-data parameter that contains attachments must be "file"
A simple example to upload a file called "myfile.txt" to the Attachment with id "456" in a container with id "123", with the comment updated, and minorEdit set to true:
curl -D- -u admin:admin -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck" -F "file=@myfile.txt" -F "minorEdit=true" -F "comment=This is my updated File" http://myhost/rest/api/content/123/child/attachment/456/data
An example to upload the same file, with no comment:
curl -D- -u admin:admin -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token: nocheck" -F "file=@myfile.txt" http://myhost/rest/api/content/123/child/attachment/456/data

REST wrapper for the {@link ChildContentService}, when {@link Depth} is ALL.
parameter | value | description |
---|---|---|
id |
a string containing the id of the content to retrieve descendants for |
Returns a map of the descendants of a piece of Content. Content can have multiple types of descendants - for example a Page can have descendants that are also Pages, but it can also have Comments and Attachments.

- this parameter can include expands for multiple descendant types.
If no types are included in the expand parameter, the map returned will just list the descendant types that are available
to be expanded for the {@link Content} referenced by the "id" path parameter.
Currently the only supported descendants are comment descendants of non-comment Content.
