Request to support cURL in code syntax highlight

[Michal Landsman]

Please add support for this kind of code. I think that confuence users use this in doc a lot, for general examples.

Or provide us a way how to add custom types like this...

Hi @Michal Landsman

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Please try below options.

1. Use Built-in Code Block Macro (Basic)
Insert the code block macro | Confluence Cloud | Atlassian Support

• Confluence supports the /Code block macro with syntax highlighting for many languages (e.g., bash, JSON, JavaScript).

• But it doesn’t support advanced features like:

  • Auto-complete

  • Tabbed blocks (Request/Response)

  • Curl-to-code conversion

2. Forge App

If you're comfortable with Atlassian Forge 

• Build a custom macro that accepts

• Render it using Forge UI + styles.

I am talking about code block which do not have support for this language or syntax. 

Basic `bash` syntax would be enough.

Hello @Michal Landsman ,
Welcome to the Community !

Based on https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-code-block-macro/ - With cloud instance, that's a native feature and one cannot add new language !!

You could try installing this add-on and see if highlighting is supported

I don't want to use 3rd-party apps. This is core functionality.

with previous comment, currently the list if fixed, we cannot alter the language list yet, probably in future there could be update on this.
