Overview
The "Update Inline Comment" operation in the Confluence Cloud node allows users to update an existing inline comment on a Confluence page or blog post. This includes modifying the body text of the comment and optionally resolving the comment. It is useful for workflows where comments need to be edited or marked as resolved programmatically, such as automating feedback updates or managing collaborative discussions within Confluence content.
Practical examples:
- Automatically updating inline comments after a review process.
- Marking inline comments as resolved when issues are addressed.
- Editing comment text to add additional context or corrections.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Comment Id | The unique numeric ID of the inline comment to update. |
| Request Body | JSON object containing the data to update the inline comment with (e.g., updated body). |
Output
The output will contain the JSON response from the Confluence API representing the updated inline comment. This typically includes fields such as the comment's ID, updated body content, status, author information, timestamps, and resolution state if applicable.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Confluence Cloud REST API.
- Requires an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
- The base URL for API requests is derived from the user's Confluence domain credential.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Comment Id: If the provided comment ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will return an error indicating the comment was not found. Verify the comment ID before updating.
- Permission Errors: Insufficient permissions to view or edit the comment will result in authorization errors. Ensure the API token has appropriate rights to modify comments in the target space.
- Malformed JSON in Request Body: The request body must be valid JSON. Invalid JSON syntax will cause parsing errors. Use proper JSON formatting.
- API Rate Limits: Frequent updates may hit API rate limits; handle such errors by retrying after some delay.
