Overview
The "Delete Inline Comment" operation in the Confluence Cloud node allows users to permanently delete an inline comment from a Confluence page or blog post. This action is irreversible and removes the specified inline comment entirely from the content.
This operation is useful in scenarios where outdated, irrelevant, or inappropriate inline comments need to be removed to maintain clarity and relevance in collaborative documents. For example, a team member might delete resolved inline comments after a discussion has concluded or remove comments that were mistakenly added.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Comment Id | The ID of the inline comment to be deleted. |
Output
The output of this operation typically contains confirmation of the deletion request. Since it performs a DELETE HTTP request, the response may be empty or contain status information indicating success. The json output field will reflect the API's response confirming the deletion.
No binary data is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Confluence Cloud REST API.
- Requires an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials for Confluence Cloud.
- The base URL for API requests is derived from the user's Confluence domain credential.
- Proper permissions are required: the user must have permission to view the content and permission to delete comments in the corresponding space.
Troubleshooting
- Permission Errors: If the operation fails due to insufficient permissions, ensure the API token has rights to view the content and delete comments in the target space.
- Invalid Comment ID: Providing a non-existent or incorrect comment ID will result in an error. Verify the comment ID before attempting deletion.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the Confluence API endpoint can cause failures. Check network access and API availability.
- API Rate Limits: Excessive requests may trigger rate limiting by Confluence. Implement retries or backoff as needed.
Common error messages:
- 403 Forbidden: Insufficient permissions to delete the comment.
- 404 Not Found: The specified comment ID does not exist.
- 401 Unauthorized: Authentication failed; check API credentials.
