No. Would need to add support for some "majorVersion" parameter in https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-rest/xwiki-platform-rest-server/src/main/java/org/xwiki/rest/internal/resources/attachments/AttachmentsResourceImpl.java.

No with the current standard REST API. Would need to add an optional content property in the Page model and add support for it in https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-rest/xwiki-platform-rest-server/src/main/java/org/xwiki/rest/internal/ModelFactory.java#L124. > The possible alternatives are: * go trough XAR import REST resource as you probably seen from what I understand * write a wiki page which act as custom REST service * write a custom /rest/ resource component in Java -- Thomas Mortagne
