403 forbidden error when attempting to create a page via the REST API

[Stevie Hollard]

Below is the request that I'm sending via postman and it keeps coming back with a forbidden error. When I send the request I am filling in the email and token sections. I have access to create a page within the space

curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://nightingalesoftware.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content' \
  --user 'user@example.com:user_api_token' \
  --header 'Accept: application/json' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "title": "Test Editor v2 Page from API",
    "type": "page",
    "space": {
      "key": "SPC"
    },
    "status": "current",
    "ancestors": [
      {
        "id": "987654321"
      }
    ],
    "body": {
      "storage": {
        "value": "<h1> Test content </h1>",
        "representation": "storage"
      }
    },
    "metadata": {
      "properties":{
        "editor": {
          "value": "v2"
        }
      }
    }
  }'

Hi @Stevie Hollard 

It looks like you are not authenticated properly... 

As the doc mention here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/api-group-content/#api-wiki-rest-api-content-post

--header 'Authorization: Bearer <access_token>'

The access token should be in the header of your post request... If you build the proper request as the doc explains it should work all fine ;) 

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Dam.
