Confluence is Atlassian’s collaboration platform for creating and organizing documentation. The Confluence MCP server lets you search pages, create content, and manage tasks using natural language.

​
What Can It Do?

  • Find pages and blog posts with flexible filters
  • Create and update pages and blog posts in specific spaces
  • List and manage tasks including status updates
  • Discover spaces to target where to publish or search

​
Where to Use It

Add Confluence as a tool to any agent. The agent can then interact with your documentation conversationally, choosing the right actions based on context. To add an MCP tool to your agent:
  1. Open your agent’s configuration
  2. Click Add tools → Connect an app with MCP
  3. Search for the integration and select it
  4. Authenticate with your account
You can control which tools your agent has access to. After adding an integration, click on it to enable or disable specific tools based on what your agent needs.

​
In Workflows (Via Agent Node)

For automated pipelines, use an Agent Node with Confluence tools. This gives you the flexibility of an agent within a deterministic workflow.

​
As a Custom MCP Node

You can also create a standalone MCP node for a specific action. This generates a reusable node that performs one task, useful when you need the same operation repeatedly in workflows.
To create a custom MCP node:
  1. Go to your node library and search for the integration
  2. Click Create a node with AI
  3. Describe the specific action you want (e.g., “Search pages in the Engineering space”)
  4. Test the node and save it for reuse
Custom MCP nodes are single-purpose by design. For tasks that require multiple steps or dynamic decision-making, use an agent instead.

Troubleshooting

IssueSolution
Agent not finding the right dataUse specific space names or search terms
Action not completingCheck that you’ve authenticated and have permissions for the space
Unexpected resultsThe agent may chain multiple tools (e.g., finding the space first, then creating a page). Review the agent’s reasoning to understand its approach.
Tool not availableVerify the tool is enabled in your agent’s MCP configuration
Agents are smart enough to chain multiple API calls together. For example, asking “Create a page in the Marketing space” will find the space first, then create the page. If results seem off, check the agent’s step-by-step reasoning.
