Confluence MCP server

Last verified: 2026-09

Read Confluence pages.

Community Chat, mail & docs Needs a secret Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code

What it does

Same author's generic HTTP wrapper, for Confluence (conf_get/post/put/patch/delete). Reads and writes spaces and pages the token can see.

It sits in Chat, mail & docs: These servers act as the bot or the integration you install.

Good for

conf_get a space you own and one page, not the company wiki root.
Search for a runbook you know exists.
Draft a page in a sandbox space, then you move it.
Keep conf_delete off the mental default.

Tools

conf_get — Read spaces, pages, search.
conf_post / conf_put / conf_patch — Create or edit pages.
conf_delete — Remove pages or spaces the token allows.

Config (Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf)

Windsurf remote MCP: use serverUrl instead of url if the block below is HTTP.

One-liner: npx -y @aashari/mcp-server-atlassian-confluence

Secrets it wants: ATLASSIAN_SITE, ATLASSIAN_EMAIL, ATLASSIAN_API_TOKEN

How to get started

Same Atlassian email + API token as Jira, or a Confluence-only token.
conf_get a space you own first. Do not point it at the company wiki root.
Keep delete off the mental default.

Access risk

Wiki write/delete. Internal runbooks should not be editable by a confused model.

When to skip it

Skip it for Notion or a local vault. Pair with Jira only if you already live in Atlassian.

Instead: Notion, Jira, Google Drive.

FAQ

Same token as Jira?

Often yes (Atlassian email + API token). That means one leak is wiki + tickets. Prefer a Confluence-only token if you can.

Same generic verbs as Jira?

Yes — conf_get/post/put/patch/delete. Not a curated 'get page' wrapper.

Confluence or Notion?

Whichever wiki you already have. Do not sync both write paths.

Can it edit official runbooks?

If the token can. Invite it to a space you can afford to mess up.
