Overview
The "Delete Inline Comment" operation in the Confluence Cloud node allows users to permanently delete an inline comment from a Confluence page or blog post. Inline comments are comments tied to specific text selections within content, often used for detailed feedback or discussions on particular parts of a document.
This operation is beneficial when you want to clean up or remove outdated or resolved inline comments from your Confluence content programmatically. For example, after resolving a discussion point in a document, you might want to delete the associated inline comment to keep the content tidy.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Comment Id | The unique numeric ID of the inline comment that you want to delete. This is a required field. |
Output
The output of this operation typically contains the response from the Confluence API after attempting to delete the specified inline comment. Since this is a deletion operation, the output JSON will usually be empty or contain status information indicating success or failure.
No binary data is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Confluence Cloud REST API.
- Requires an API authentication token credential configured in n8n to authenticate requests.
- The base URL for API requests is derived from the user's Confluence domain credential.
- Proper permissions are needed: the user must have permission to view the content and permission to delete comments in the corresponding space.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Providing an invalid or non-existent Comment Id will result in an error.
- Insufficient permissions to delete comments will cause authorization errors.
- Network or connectivity issues with the Confluence Cloud API can cause request failures.
Common Error Messages:
- 404 Not Found: The specified inline comment ID does not exist.
- 403 Forbidden: The authenticated user lacks permission to delete the comment.
- 401 Unauthorized: Authentication credentials are missing or invalid.
Resolutions:
- Verify the Comment Id is correct and exists.
- Ensure the API key or token has sufficient permissions.
- Check network connectivity and API endpoint correctness.
