Azure DevOps Update Wiki page content
Inspiration
This question from Jondoesflow:I am trying to create some content on an ADO wiki page via an HTTP connector.Power Users Community thread: HTTP call to create content on existing WIKI page.
Request Headers
Like Jon already mentioned you can use a PATCH request for this via the Azure DevOps REST API. That REST API has a Pages – Update method for this. You can interact with that API via the HTTP action of the HTTP connector.One of the important things to point out is that this request also requires some additional Headers information.
Version of the page on which the change is to be made. Mandatory for Edit scenario. To be populated in the If-Match header of the request.
Flow setup
In this example we are retrieving the page by id and updating the content in a second request. For the Authentication we are using a Personal Access Token.

2. Add Get my profile (v2) action (optional).
