Summary

Updating content especially changing the parent page of the respective page doesn't work with REST API unless the title of the page is modified. 

Environment

• Confluence Cloud 
• REST API

Steps to Reproduce

1. Using the endpoint: https://srandhawa.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/668827653 and GET method, it will fetch the details of the page.
2. Adding below body text:

   {"title":"Child Page #1",
   "type":"page",
   "space":{"key":"NS"},
   "version":{"number":"2"},
   "ancestors":[{"id":"668991510"}]
   }

3. Refresh the page from UI to observe if there is page reorder operation is performed. You will observe new page version added and the output will return 200 with no updation.

Expected Results

It should move the page under the new parent page.

Actual Results

Nothing changes

Notes

Workaround

1. Changing the title and incrementing the version works like a charm:

   {"title":"Child Page #1 with postman",
   "type":"page",
   "space":{"key":"NS"},
   "version":{"number": "3"},
   "ancestors":[{"id":"668991510"}]
   }

1. The refresh reorders the page here:

   {
       "id": "668827653",
       "type": "page",
       "status": "current",
