Disabling/Enabling Automation API on the Site Level

Jira Snapshot provides a REST api so that a Jira Snapshot can be triggered automatically.

Navigate to the Configuration area for the App, and open the “Automation” tab to find the control options.
As a Confluence administrator, you may disable these automation endpoints across the site.

Global API Key

The global API Key provides a way to trigger all snapshots on any page on your site. It can only be enabled by a Confluence administrator.

The API Key is valid for three months, but can be prolonged as many times as you need. This avoids the necessity to update the key across your automations, but also ensures that the administrator is keeping it active only as long as needed.

To trigger a new snapshot for all snapshots on the page, you’ll need the Global API Key, and the page id for the page you need to trigger the snapshot for.

curl --location --request POST 'https://snapshots.radbeeapps.com/take-snapshot/<PAGE ID>' --header 'jira-snapshots-api-key: <Global API Key>'

Revoking The API Key for Specific Macros

Sometimes there is a need to stop specific macro from being triggered via automation.
This may be done from the page where this macro resides, and also from the administration are.
