Document Structure

Technical reference for the document structure JSON format.

Content Methods

These methods work with document content for both task descriptions and standalone documents.

`get_json_document`

get_json_document(document_id: str) -> Dict[str, Any]

Get the JSON content of a specific document or task description.

Parameters:

document_id - Document ID (from task or standalone document)

Returns: Dict[str, Any] - Parsed JSON structure

Example:

# Get standalone document content
content = client.get_json_document("document_id")
print(content)

# Get task description
task_response = client.get_task("PRJ-123")
description = client.get_json_document(task_response.task.document)

`replace_document`

replace_document(
    document_id: str,
    description: str
) -> ReplaceDocumentResponse

Replace document content with plain text.

Parameters:

document_id - Document ID
description - New content (plain text or markdown-style)

Returns: ReplaceDocumentResponse

Example:

# Replace with plain text
client.replace_document(
    document_id="doc_id",
    description="""
# Updated Content

New document content here.
"""
)

`replace_json_document`

replace_json_document(
    document_id: str,
    content: List[Dict[str, Any]]
) -> ReplaceJSONDocumentResponse

Replace document content with structured JSON content.

Works for:

Task descriptions
Standalone documents (Project, Space, Member)
Any document type

Parameters:

document_id - Document ID
content - JSONContent array (see format below)

Returns: ReplaceJSONDocumentResponse

Example with raw JSON:

json_content = [
    {
        "type": "heading",
        "attrs": {"level": 1},
        "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Title"}]
    },

            {"type": "text", "marks": [{"type": "bold"}], "text": "bold"}
        ]
    }
]

client.replace_json_document("doc_id", json_content)

Example with helpers (recommended):

from vaiz import heading, paragraph, text

content = [
    heading(1, "Title"),
    paragraph("This is ", text("bold", bold=True))
]

client.replace_json_document("doc_id", content)

See Document Structure Helpers Guide for all helper functions.

      "content": [
        {
          "type": "paragraph",
          "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Parent item"}]
        },
        {
          "type": "bulletList",
          "content": [
            {
              "type": "listItem",
              "content": [
                {
                  "type": "paragraph",
                  "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Nested item"}]

Nested Checklists

Task lists support multi-level nesting:

  "content": [
    {
      "type": "taskItem",
      "attrs": {"checked": false},
      "content": [
        {
          "type": "paragraph",
          "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Main task"}]
        },
        {
          "type": "taskList",
          "attrs": {"uid": "nestedList"},
          "content": [
            {
              "type": "taskItem",
              "attrs": {"checked": true},
              "content": [
                {
                  "type": "paragraph",
                  "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Subtask 1"}]
                }
              ]
            },
            {
              "type": "taskItem",
              "attrs": {"checked": false},
              "content": [
                {
                  "type": "paragraph",
                  "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "Subtask 2"}]
                }
              ]
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Using helpers for nested checklists:

from vaiz import task_list, task_item, paragraph

content = [
    task_list(
        task_item(
            paragraph("Phase 1: Planning"),
            task_list(
                task_item("Define requirements", checked=True),
                task_item("Create wireframes", checked=True),
                task_item("Review with stakeholders", checked=False)
            ),
            checked=True
        ),
        task_item(
            paragraph("Phase 2: Development"),
            task_list(
                task_item("Setup project", checked=False),
                task_item("Implement features", checked=False)
            ),
            checked=False
        )
    )

Helper Functions (Recommended)

Instead of manually constructing JSON, use the built-in helper functions:

from vaiz import heading, paragraph, text, bullet_list, task_list, task_item, blockquote, link_text, table, table_row, table_header

content = [
    heading(1, "Project Documentation"),
    paragraph(
        "This is ",
        text("bold", bold=True),
        " and ",
        text("italic", italic=True),
        " text."
    ),
    heading(2, "Features"),
    bullet_list(
        "Easy to use",
        "Type-safe"
    ),
    heading(2, "Todo"),
    task_list(
        task_item("Review code", checked=True),
        task_item("Deploy to production", checked=False)
    ),
    blockquote(
        paragraph(
            text("Important: ", bold=True),
            "Always use type-safe helpers for better code quality."
        )
    ),
    table(
        table_row(
            table_header("Feature"),
            table_header("Status")
        ),
        table_row("Document helpers", "✅"),
        table_row("Table headers", "✅")
    ),
    paragraph(
        "Learn more at ",
        link_text("docs.vaiz.app", "https://docs.vaiz.app")
    )
]
