Overview
This node operation retrieves comments associated with a specific custom content item in Confluence Cloud. It is useful when you want to fetch all comments made on a particular piece of custom content, such as feedback or discussion notes related to that content.
Typical use cases include:
- Aggregating user comments for review or analysis.
- Displaying comment threads related to custom content in external dashboards or applications.
- Automating workflows based on comment activity on custom content.
For example, if you have a custom content item representing a project document, this operation can fetch all comments users have made on it, enabling you to process or display them elsewhere.
Properties
Name | Meaning |
---|---|
Id | The ID of the custom content for which comments should be returned. This is required to specify the target content. |
Additional Fields | Optional parameters to customize the request: |
- Body Format: The format type for the comment body content returned (e.g., storage, view). | |
- Sort: Field by which to sort the returned comments (e.g., creation date). |
Output
The output will be a JSON object containing the list of comments for the specified custom content. The main data will be under a property typically named results
(based on common API response patterns), each entry representing a comment with its details such as author, body, creation date, and possibly formatted body content depending on the body-format
parameter.
No binary data output is expected from this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an authenticated connection to Confluence Cloud via an API key credential.
- The node must be configured with the domain URL of the Confluence Cloud instance.
- Permissions: The user associated with the API key must have permission to view the custom content and its containers to retrieve comments.
Troubleshooting
- Permission errors: If the node returns authorization errors, verify that the API key has sufficient permissions to access the custom content and read comments.
- Invalid ID: Providing an incorrect or non-existent custom content ID will result in no comments or an error. Ensure the ID is correct.
- Empty results: If no comments are returned, confirm that the custom content actually has comments and that filters (like status or sort) are not excluding them.
- Unsupported body format: Specifying an unsupported
body-format
may cause the API to ignore the parameter or return default formatting.
