Change page level

  • Artikkeli

Hi there,
In this Beta API update we are allowing developers to change the indentation level for a page (aka page level) programmatically.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with this feature, the following image shows how pages can be indented in three levels:

Here is a quick recipe for how to do this, followed by an example:

  • Get the ID of the page for which you want to change the indentation level.
  • Make sure to append the following headers to the request:
    • A valid Authorization header.
    • Content-Type set to application/json.
  • Use the PATCH verb.
  • The URL for the API is: https://www.onenote.com/api/beta/me/notes/pages/{id}
  • In the body of the request append the following JSON object:
    {"level":" {page level} "}
    Replace {page level} with 0, 1 or 2 where 0 means no indentation at all and 2 is the maximum indentation level.
  • Any response other than a 204 (HTTP no content) means that something went wrong.

Here's an example of what such a request might look like if we wanted to change the indentation level of a specific page to 1:

PATCH https://www.onenote.com/api/beta/me/notes/pages/1-567446387463478
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1...

{"level": "1"}

Gotchas:

  • The indentation level for the first page in a section cannot be changed, it only works starting at the second page and onwards (if attempted, the request will fail with an HTTP status of 400).
  • If the page above an indented page is moved to another location or deleted, the indented page will lose its indentation.
  • The only valid values for the level property are 0, 1, 2.
  • This API is still in Beta so please don't forget the /beta in the URL.
  • Please refer to the PATCH content API documentation for additional information about PATCH APIs.

You can use the following APIs to get the value of the current page level:

GET https://www.onenote.com/api/v1.0/me/notes/pages/{id}?pagelevel=true

Or

 GET https://www.onenote.com/api/v1.0/me/notes/sections/{id}/pages?pagelevel=true

Please note that you will have to append the pagelevel=true parameter to the request URL.

Enjoy,

    is it possible to batch rename pages to either include some constant variable "WSJ" or modified date formated like "YYYY-MM-DD HHMMSS"?

    sorry we don't have batching support in the APIs but individual pages can be renamed easily

    Hi,We tried the above method to create subpage, but unfortunately we got an error saying "Bad-Request". The problem what we are facing is we don't know where exactly we need to add/append the JSON object i.e. "{"level": "1"}" to the request body.In patch command what should be the value of "Target"? Please help us out to break this.
