description Overview
mcp-confluence — Confluence MCP Server
Search pages, manage spaces, and create documentation in your Confluence wiki.
Confluence is the knowledge management hub for teams using Atlassian. This MCP server gives your AI agents the ability to search across your wiki, read and create pages, manage spaces, and add comments — making Confluence a natural knowledge source and documentation target for automated workflows and AI-driven agents.
Live endpoint: https://mcp.aerostack.dev/s/aerostack/mcp-confluence
What You Can Do
- Search your entire wiki using CQL (Confluence Query Language) to find relevant documentation, runbooks, or meeting notes before an agent responds
- Read full page content including body HTML so agents can summarize, extract, or reference internal docs
- Create and update pages programmatically — generate post-mortems, deploy summaries, meeting notes, or API docs directly from agent workflows
- Browse spaces and page trees to discover knowledge structure and navigate hierarchies
- Add comments to pages as part of review workflows or automated feedback loops
Setup
Step 1: Get Your Confluence Cloud URL
Your Confluence URL looks like https://yoursite.atlassian.net. This is the base URL for all API calls.
Step 2: Create an API Token
- Go to id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens
- Click Create API token
- Give it a label (e.g., "Aerostack MCP")
- Copy the token — you won't be able to see it again
Step 3: Add to Aerostack Workspace
- Go to your Aerostack workspace → Add Server → search "Confluence"
- Enter your three secrets when prompted:
CONFLUENCE_URL— your Atlassian site URL (e.g.https://yoursite.atlassian.net)CONFLUENCE_EMAIL— the email address associated with your Atlassian accountCONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN— the API token you just created
- Click Test to verify the connection

-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'X-Mcp-Secret-CONFLUENCE-URL: https://yoursite.atlassian.net' \

Security Notes
- API tokens have the same permissions as your Atlassian account — use a service account with limited permissions for production
- Tokens do not expire automatically but can be revoked at any time from the Atlassian security settings
- All secrets are transmitted via
X-Mcp-Secret-*headers and never stored by the MCP worker - The worker uses Basic auth (email:token base64-encoded) as required by the Confluence Cloud REST API

Frequently asked questions
What is the Confluence MCP server and what can it do? +
The Confluence MCP server is hosted on Aerostack and exposes these tools to your AI agent: `_ping`, `list_spaces`, `get_space`, `list_pages`, `get_page`. You get one hosted URL — no self-hosting — that works from Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Gemini, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client, and you can share it with your team or combine it with other MCP servers in a workspace.
Is the Confluence MCP server hosted, or do I have to run it myself? +
It's hosted on Aerostack's edge infrastructure — you don't deploy or maintain anything. Add it to a workspace and you get one authenticated URL, with secrets encrypted, that any AI agent or editor can connect to. Use it solo or share the same URL across your whole team.
Which AI agents and editors can use the Confluence MCP server? +
Any MCP client: Claude and Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, Gemini, Windsurf, Cline, VS Code, and custom agents. Because it's one hosted URL, the same Confluence MCP server works everywhere — and you can compose it with other MCP servers, skills, and functions behind a single workspace URL.
How do I install the Confluence MCP server in Claude Desktop? +
Add the following to your Claude Desktop config (`claude_desktop_config.json`): ```json { "mcpServers": { "@aerostack/mcp-confluence": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@aerostack/@aerostack/mcp-confluence"] } } } ``` Then restart Claude Desktop and the tools will appear automatically.
How do I use the Confluence MCP server in Cursor? +
In Cursor, open **Settings → MCP** and add: ```json { "name": "@aerostack/mcp-confluence", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@aerostack/@aerostack/mcp-confluence"] } ``` Save and reload Cursor. The MCP tools will be available in Agent mode.
Does Confluence MCP require authentication? +
Yes. Confluence requires authentication. Check the MCP's documentation for the required credentials.
