## Overview

[from v7.5.0] 

Comala Document Management app provides a REST API for integration with external services.

This REST API uses the **current status** **related data** and focuses on content-level endpoints to get current workflow status and interact with states, approvals, and workflow parameters.

> 📝 For v7.4.0 and earlier, a different Status REST API definition is used. Refer to the following [documentation page](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CDML/pages/1071743020).

> ℹ️ No metadata info is available in the REST API

> 📝 You cannot add a workflow to Confluence content on our public API<sup>**†**</sup>

<sup>**†**</sup>** **Although the Comala Document Management Workflows REST API cannot add a workflow to content, an alternative way to achieve the addition of a Comala workflow to content is to use a space-wide workflow, but limit it to only pages in the space with a specific label.

You can use the default Confluence API to add or remove labels to activate the given workflow on a page.

> ⚠️ *You need scripting experience for this.*
