Using the Confluence API, the <ac:task> checkbox does not work.

[김민성]

I sent a PUT request to a Confluence page using <ac:task>, but after refreshing the page, when I try to check the checkbox, I get an error saying that the changes cannot be saved. However, if I manually click the "Edit" button in the UI and then update the page, it works fine.

What I want is to create and update the page using the API without needing any manual UI actions.

I suspect that this might be due to the absence of a task ID. So, I checked the following:

• After sending the PUT request, I made a GET request to retrieve the page data, but the task ID was missing.
• To see if publishing would help, I sent a POST request to ../{page_id}/publish after the PUT request, but even then, the task ID was still missing in the GET response.
• However, when I manually edit the page via the UI and inspect the source, I can see that a task ID has been assigned.

Does this mean that the API alone does not generate a task ID?

Is there a way to resolve this?

Here’s the task-related part of my request:

<ac:task-list>

    <ac:task> 

        <ac:task-status>incomplete</ac:task-status>

        <ac:task-body> ... </ac:task-body>

    </ac:task>

</ac:task-list>

Probably you'd need to use the v2 version of the API: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v2/api-group-page/#api-pages-id-put
