Search By Space Name

I’m trying to create a forge app will needs to be able to query all spaces within Confluence, ideally with the ability to filter by space name and type (e.g. personal/global)

The deprecated /wiki/rest/api/search looks like it might have been able to do it, although the cql type=space doesn’t really seem to work properly, it’s also not documented so I presume it is not meant to. Also the endpoint is due to be removed at the end of the year so I don’t really want to start using it.

There doesn’t seem to be anything in the new v2 rest API to search spaces in any way, just to list them all.

I had a go with GraphQL, using findSpaces query, which supports filter by space type, but unfortunately not by name. Does anyone know if there are any plans to make space name a filter option for findSpaces or if there is another way of searching by space name in some other endpoint?

Thanks!

Hi Martin, the search API is not deprecated.

We’ve had success with the cql query (url-encoded):
type=space and title ~ '${title}*'

For the space type, you should be able to use space.type = personal or space.type = global
