I'm trying to setup version for page using call from

https://help.k15t.com/scroll-versions/latest/api-resources-144802064.html

MANAGE VERSIONED PAGES VIA REST

POST [confluence_base_url]/rest/scroll-versions/1.0/page/modify/VS?masterPageId=17989634&pageTitle=Changed%20title&versionId=7F00000101622F08E55548715DF477BA&changeType=Modify

the call does not work correctly with Cyrillic

for example

pageTitle=Changed%20title

title will be Changed0title - it not correct, but good. And page will be versioned

But we use Cyrillic:

pageTitle=Текст

 I need to specify a page title in Cyrillic

  Hi Pavel,

  the default character set used in the REST requests is UTF-8. Thus %20 is resolved to space. (We will check if there is a bug).

  So using Cyrillic in the request will not work. I used https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp > URL Encoding Functions to check how Текст is encoded in a URL.

  Текст has a URL representation of %D0%A2%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%81%D1%82

  How do you trigger that call? If it is used from the UI or any other piece of code you should be able to URL encode your text using corresponding libs.

  Does this answer your question?

  Best,
  Tobias

  Hi Tobias,

  I test call via curl

  curl.exe -u "user:password" --insecure https://wiki/rest/scroll-versions/1.0/page/modify/ASRU -d "masterPageId=202394582&pageTitle=%D0%A2%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%81%D1%82&versionId=0A6573030164D1D88A766A147ED450F1&changeType=Modify" -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token:nocheck" -H "Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded" --output Response.txt --trace-ascii trace.txt

  I know about encoder/decoder, but with pageTitle=%D0%A2%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%81%D1%82 page will have title A2B5BA8182. It is not correct

  Hi Pavel.

  The request with the encoded word Текст works without problems for me. Here is a screenshot of the request and the result:
  

  
  
  Please check if there could be some differences between my request and yours.

  Cheers,
  Roman.

  Hi Roman!

  I reproduced the request with the correct parameters and Cyrillic title.

   In pyton (pageTitle  can consist of Cyrillic alphabet):

  ...
  pageTitle=pageTitle.encode('utf-8')
  params = {"masterPageId": masterPageId, "pageTitle": pageTitle, "versionId": versionId,

            "changeType": "Modify"}
  url_params = urllib.urlencode(params)
  url_post = self.uri_base + '/rest/scroll-versions/1.0/page/modify/' + self.space + '?' + url_params
  data = ''
  headers = {'X-Atlassian-Token': 'nocheck', 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'}
  response = requests.post(url_post, data=data, headers=headers,
                            auth=(self.username, self.password), verify=False)

  Thanks!
