Overview
The "Get Footer Comments" operation for the Comment resource in this Confluence Cloud node retrieves all footer comments from a specified container (such as a page, blog post, or custom content). Footer comments are comments that appear at the bottom of the content. This operation is useful when you want to programmatically access discussions or feedback left on Confluence content.
Common scenarios include:
- Aggregating all footer comments for review or analysis.
- Monitoring comments for moderation or notifications.
- Integrating Confluence comments into other collaboration tools or workflows.
For example, you might use this operation to fetch all footer comments on a project documentation page to summarize team feedback or track unresolved issues.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Additional Fields | A collection of optional parameters to customize the request: |
| - Body Format | The content format type to be returned in the body field of each comment. If available, the representation will be under a response field of the same name within body. |
| - Sort | Field by which to sort the results. |
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| No explicit ID property | This operation does not require an ID parameter because it returns all footer comments across containers. |
Output
The output JSON contains an array of footer comments retrieved from the Confluence instance. Each comment object includes details such as:
- Comment body in the requested format.
- Metadata about the comment (author, creation date, status).
- Possibly additional fields depending on the API response and expansions.
If the user specifies a body-format, the comment's body content will be returned in that format.
The node outputs the data as JSON; there is no binary data output for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an authenticated connection to a Confluence Cloud instance via an API key credential.
- The base URL for API requests is configured from the user's credentials (the Confluence domain).
- Permissions required: The user must have permission to view the content of the container and its corresponding space to retrieve footer comments.
Troubleshooting
- Permission errors: If the node returns permission-related errors, ensure the API key has sufficient rights to view the content and comments.
- Empty results: If no comments are returned, verify that the container actually has footer comments and that filters (like status) are not excluding them.
- Invalid body format: Specifying an unsupported
body-formatmay cause the API to ignore the parameter or return errors. Use valid content format types supported by Confluence. - API limits: The number of comments returned may be limited by the API. Use pagination if necessary (not explicitly shown here but implied by the API).
