Where to find Open API (Swagger) specification for the Confluence Server REST API?

Question

For the Atlassian Confluence Cloud REST API there is an Open API (formerly Swagger) specification available here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/swagger.v3.json

I was not able to find such an Open API specification for the Confluence Server REST API. Any hints as to where to find it are appreciated.

Here is what I found :) I share my doc with you :

API Jira Cloud platform

Here is my script: in the “Postman environment” variables or in the “collection variables”, add:

baseUrl = https://XXX.atlassian.net
username = [email protected]
token = <token> https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens

In the “Pre-request Script” of the collection, add:

postman.setEnvironmentVariable(
    "base64", 
    btoa(postman.getEnvironmentVariable("username") + ":" + postman.getEnvironmentVariable("token"))
);
pm.request.headers.add({
    key: "Authorization",
    value: "Basic " + postman.getEnvironmentVariable("base64")
});

After adding this configuration: you must disable the “Authorization” configurations of each endpoint (because they are configured for the old Basic mode in login/password which no longer works deprecated)

Answer 2

I know the question is old, but for anybody else who came come looking for an answer.

The Atlassian server/Datacenter version is based on Jersey. So there is a built-in implementation to generate the wadl file from your own instance.

replace your hostname of confluence, and just browse to the below URL.

/rest/api/latest/application.wadl

Hope this helps
