Currently, Confluence Automation only provides the AI-generated summary smart value (page.aiSummary) for extracting page content. There is no official smart value to retrieve the entire body of a page.
Many use cases require access to the full page content, such as sending the content via email, analyzing keywords, or integrating with other systems.
Current Problem:
Only AI summary (page.aiSummary) is available as a smart value.
There is no official smart value to extract the full body/content of a Confluence page.
Users must rely on workarounds using the REST API and "Send web request" actions, which are complex and not user-friendly.
Suggested Solution:
Introduce a new smart value, such as page.body or page.body.storage, that returns the full content of the Confluence page in a user-friendly format (preferably both rendered and storage formats).
Ensure this smart value is available in all automation actions, such as "Send email" or "Create Jira issue".
Workaround:
Use the Confluence REST API with the "Send web request" action in Automation, and access the response with webRequest.body or webResponse.body.body.storage.value. However, this approach is not straightforward for non-technical users.
