Getting 401 error

[Dastagiri]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to get confluence page response using rest API in below format, but getting like 401 unauthorised. I can access in gui without any issues. I can see in  few posts like basic authentication is deprecated. I don't have option to generate oauth. Is there any way that I can overcome this issue?

Curl -k -x get https:// url -u id: password

@Dastagiri 

curl -k  -u 'username:password's -X GET https://url

Does your password have special characters?

Encode with HTML parameters

If your instance is not secured with HTTPS go with http://url

Ensure username is not Email ID and it is username you use for login  and password is the one you use for login

 Can you attach the screenshots of the error you are getting?

Let me know

Thanks

Hi pramod,

Thank you so much for your response. I am using using https and my password have special characters in my password. So I replaced like "user":"password" then it's working. Now another issue when updating page using put its showing  status code 500 internal server error.  Below is the code i am using.

content= $(updated in link section
)

response=$(curl -X GET url\

-H 'Content-Type:"application/json' -k \

-u "${username}":"${password}")

version_temp=${response##*'number":'}
version=${version_temp%%%%','*}
version=$((version+1)) #increment version
response=$(curl -X PUT ${confluenceurl} \
-H 'Content-type: application/json' -k \
-u "${confluence_user}":"${confluence_password}" \
-d '{
"id": page id,
"type": "page",
"title": "page title",

"space": {"key": "Myspace"},

"body": {
"storage": {
"value": ","${content}",",
"representation": "storage"
}
}')

Please let me know if I am making some mistake.

Thanks,

you can find content= $(awk -F etc at the end of message, as it is not allowing to post html content. Is there anyway that I can make changes to code if it is wrong format?
