How do I create a BookStack documentation page?
Short answer: You can create page in BookStack by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the BookStack Create Page action to a workflow, map its 4 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Book ID book_id | string | Optional | Either book_id OR chapter_id is required |
Chapter ID chapter_id | string | Optional | – |
Title name | string | Required | – |
Markdown Body markdown | string | Required | – |
Sample request
{"book_id": "{{trigger.book_id}}","chapter_id": "{{trigger.chapter_id}}","name": "{{trigger.name}}","markdown": "{{trigger.markdown}}"}
Returns
{"id": 42,"url": "https://wiki/books/.../page/api-spec","name": "API Spec","slug": "api-spec","book_id": 1}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Create Page.
What does the Create Page action do in BookStack?
Creates a new page in a specified book or chapter with markdown or HTML body. For "auto-publish meeting notes from a transcript into the team wiki" or "git commit pushes README → mirror to BookStack" workflows.
What inputs does Create Page require?
Required: Title, Markdown Body. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if BookStack returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message BookStack returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Create Page support batch operations?
Run Create Page inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within BookStack's rate limits.
