Clarify Wiki API Documentation Example

[Marlan]

The example shown in the Wikis API documentation Retrieving and modifying the content of an article is misleading.

The example shows the following:

article = wiki.get_article("article_name")

Instead it should show:

article = wiki.get_article("1") 

This is because the argument for get_article() is the article's ID (which appear to be only numbers), not its name.

Also would be good to note how to find the ID (e.g., hover over name on Timeline).

Hi @Marlan ,

Thanks for the suggestion.

We released a bug fix with 8.0.4 in Dec 2020 that fixed the wiki.get_article() issue you described in the wiki API. On an up-to-date version of DSS you will be able to get a wiki article by using either its ID or name. 

We recommend upgrading to a newer version of DSS.

Take care,

Ashley

Good to hear - thanks for closing the loop on this @AshleyW.
