Confluence API Get content template

[Grzegorz Ostrowski]

I am trying to create page from template using powershell in yaml pipeline.

This is my code:

$urlGetTemplate = "https://???.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/template/33980675"

      Write-Host "URL: $urlGetTemplate"

      $username = "?????????"

      $password = "?????????"

      $base64AuthInfo = [Convert]::ToBase64String([Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(("{0}:{1}" -f $username,$password)))

      $headers = @{

          'Authorization' = 'Basic ' + $base64AuthInfo

          'X-Atlassian-Token' = 'no-check'

          'Connection' = 'keep-alive'

      }

      Write-Host "base64AuthInfo:" $base64AuthInfo

      [string]$templateObject = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri $urlGetTemplate -ContentType "application/json" -Headers $headers

I dont get any error, but I get this empty template: 

{
templateId=33980675;
originalTemplate=;
referencingBlueprint=com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.confluence-business-blueprints:file-list-blueprint@DOK;
name=File list;
description=Upload, preview and share files with your team.;
space=;
labels=System.Object[];
templateType=page;
editorVersion=v2;
body=;
_links=
}

I checked the same Request using postman and SoapUI and I get json with full template data. Can anybody tell me why Powershell Invoke-RestMethod gives me empty json without error?

Yeah @Grzegorz Ostrowski 

I'm afraid this is not yet supported for Cloud

Here's the reference for the feature request

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-11393

Let me know if you have any queries

Thanks,

Thanks for reply.

So it is not possible to get project template using powershell?

I dont wont to create page from template in one API method. I want only to get project template using API method GET /wiki/rest/api/template/{contentTemplateId} 

I am able to get full json template using SopaUI or postman, why powershell returns me nearly empty json with 200 response. I use powershell in jira and confluence API to add Attachments and Pages with success, but why I cant get template through API?

Hi @Grzegorz Ostrowski 

Try this API

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/api-group-template/#api-wiki-rest-api-template-blueprint-get

GET /wiki/rest/api/template/blueprint

With the above API you should be able to get all the templates

---

GET /wiki/rest/api/template/{contentTemplateId}  - this one is for templates which you have built.

I am sorry for your trouble.

It was my simple mistake with powershell object.

But thanks for your reply
