  title: Atlassian The Confluence Cloud REST Audit API
  description: 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.

  documents:
  - title: About
    anchor: about
    body: 'This is the reference for the Confluence Cloud REST API. This API is the primary way to get and

      modify data in Confluence Cloud, whether you are developing an app or any other integration.

      Use it to interact with Confluence entities, like pages and blog posts, spaces, users, groups,

      and more.'
  - title: Authentication and authorization
    anchor: auth
    body: '**Authentication:** If you are building a Cloud app, authentication is implemented via JWT or OAuth 2.0, depending on what you are building (see [Security overview](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/security-overview/)). Otherwise, if you are authenticating directly against the REST API, the REST API supports basic auth (see [Basic auth for REST APIs](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/basic-auth-for-rest-apis/)).


      **Authorization:** If you are building a Cloud app, authorization can be implemented by [scopes](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/scopes/) or by [OAuth 2.0 user impersonation](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/oauth-2-jwt-bearer-tokens-for-apps). Otherwise, if you are making calls directly against the REST API, authorization is based on the user used in the authentication process.


      See [Security overview](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/security-overview/) for more details on authentication and authorization.'
  - title: Status codes
    anchor: status-code
    body: "The Confluence REST API uses the [standard HTTP status codes](https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html).\n\nResponses that return an error status code will also return a response body, similar to the following:\n```json\n{\n  \"statusCode\": 404,\n  \"data\": {\n    \"authorized\": false,\n    \"valid\": false,\n    \"errors\": [\n      {\n        \"message\": {\n          \"translation\": \"This is an example error message.\",\n          \"args\": []\n        }\n      }\n    ],\n    \"successful\": false\n  },\n  \"message\": \"This is an example error message.\"\n}\n```"
  - title: Using the REST API
    anchor: using
    body: '**Expansion:** The Confluence REST API uses resource expansion: some parts of a resource are not returned unless explicitly specified. This simplifies responses and minimizes network traffic.


      To expand part of a resource in a request, use the `expand` query parameter and specify the entities to be expanded. If you need to expand nested entities, use the `.` dot notation. For example, the following request will expand information about the requested content''s space and labels:

      ```

      GET /wiki/rest/api/content/{id}?expand=space,metadata.labels

      ```

      **Pagination:** The Confluence REST API uses pagination: a method that returns a response with multiple objects can only return a limited number at one time. This limits the size of responses and conserves server resources.


      Use the ''limit'' and ''start'' query parameters to specify pagination:


      - `limit` is the number of objects to return per page. This may be restricted by system limits.

      - `start` is the index of the first item returned in the page of results. The base index is 0.


      For example, the following request will return ten content objects, starting from the fifth object.

      ```

      GET /wiki/rest/api/content?start=4&limit=10

      ```

      **Special headers:**


      - `X-Atlassian-Token: no-check` request header must be specified for methods

      that are protected from Cross Site Request Forgery (XSRF/CSRF) attacks. This is

      stated in the method description, if required. For more information, see this

      [KB article](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloudkb/xsrf-check-failed-when-calling-cloud-apis-826874382.html).'
  - title: Capabilities
    anchor: capabilities
    body: '**Webhooks:** A webhook is a user-defined callback over HTTP. You can use Confluence webhooks to notify your app or web application when certain events occur in Confluence. For example, when a page is created or updated. To learn more, see [Webhooks](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/modules/webhook/).


      **Content properties:** Content properties are a key-value storage associated with a piece of Confluence content. If you are building an app, this is one form of persistence that you can use. You can use the Confluence REST API to get, update, and delete content properties. To learn more, see [Content properties in the REST API](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/content-properties/).


      **CQL:** The Confluence Query Language (CQL) allows you to perform complex searches for content using an SQL-like syntax in the `search` resource. To learn more, see [Advanced searching using CQL](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/advanced-searching-using-cql/).'
