Confluence Cloud

Access to the Confluence Cloud REST API - Auto-generated from OpenAPI

Overview

This node operation retrieves the root footer comments of a specific Confluence page. It is useful when you want to fetch all top-level comments that appear in the footer section of a given page in Confluence Cloud. This can help in scenarios such as aggregating user feedback, monitoring discussions, or integrating comment data into other workflows.

For example, you might use this node to:

  • Collect all footer comments on a project documentation page to analyze team feedback.
  • Display recent comments from a Confluence page in an external dashboard.
  • Automate notifications based on new comments added to a page footer.

Properties

Name Meaning
Id The ID of the page for which footer comments should be returned.
Additional Fields Optional filters and parameters:
- Body Format The content format type to be returned in the body field of each comment (e.g., storage, view).
- Status Filter comments by their status. Possible values: Current, Archived, Trashed, Deleted, Historical, Draft.
- Sort Field name used to sort the results.

Output

The output JSON contains an array of footer comments related to the specified page. Each comment object includes details such as the comment body (in the requested format), author information, creation date, status, and potentially other metadata depending on the API response.

If pagination is applicable, the response may include links to retrieve additional pages of comments.

No binary data is output by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires access to a Confluence Cloud instance with appropriate permissions.
  • An API authentication token or API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests to the Confluence Cloud REST API.
  • The node uses the Confluence Cloud REST API endpoint /wiki/api/v2/pages/{id}/footer-comments.

Troubleshooting

  • Permission errors: If the node returns permission-related errors, ensure the API credentials have permission to view the specified page and its space.
  • Invalid Page ID: Providing an incorrect or non-existent page ID will result in errors or empty results. Verify the page ID before running the node.
  • Empty results: If no footer comments are returned, check if the page actually has footer comments or adjust filters like status.
  • API rate limits: Excessive calls may hit Confluence API rate limits; consider adding delays or handling retries.
