I have done a lot of reading both here and in Stackoverflow. I still cannot make this work, and I am wondering if it is possible. I am using this example:
For some reason I can't reply on that page, so I am writing a new question here.
If I use the field:
'body': {
'storage':
{
'representation': 'storage',
'value': str(content)
}
}
where the content is:
<table><tbody><tr><th>H1</th><th>H2</th></tr><tr><td>column1</td><td>column2</td></tr></tbody></table>
This posts the string in content, i.e., it doesn't get formatted as a table - actually it adds a space between the tag elements.
Am I missing something, such as the 'html/body' elements in the string that I send in the storage/data field? I also tried adding these, and still it posts the actual string.
Thanks,
Dirce
PS: I also tried this simple html string: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Page Title</title> </head> <body> <h1>My First Heading</h1> <p>My first paragraph.</p> </body> </html>
and that also posts the string itself. So my problem is not about the table, but in figuring out what am I doing wrong in posting HTML so that Confluence will interpret it.
Hi , I'm Thomas (beginner)
I work on the same challenge. Dont get the "REST API" example running. Is there a step by step tutorial.
Another interface might be "html-migration" - macro. I activated it but I can not see it in the macro-browser. Same request: is there a step by step tutorial.
I got it to work. In my code, where I show 'value': str(content)
I was making the mistake where I had encoded the content, as you would to for an http encoding. In this case, once I put in the actual string (beginning with<table> ), it worked.

Hi Dirce, how did you manage to post the str with HTML content?
If I don't escape special HTML characters like "<" and ">" to "<" and ">", I get HTTP error 400 when posting HTML string to Confluence:
HTTPError: 400 Client Error: for url: https://example.net/instance_name/rest/api/content/12343567890
However, if I escape HTML, I get the HTML string posted to Confluence page as-is. For example, I get links displayed as HTML code, like <a href="some_url">Some text</a>. How did you manage to get this code to post HTML?
Thank you.

Hi All,
Even I am facing the same issue to post HTML table content to confluence page. It was working fine before.
I am using lambda function where I am using requests module to post .
```
r = requests.post(url=url, data=json.dumps(data), headers=headers)
```
