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
- Upload, list, and manage attachments on pages
- Discover spaces to target where to publish or search
Where to Use It
In Agents (Recommended)
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:- Open your agent’s configuration
- Click Add tools → Connect an app with MCP
- Search for the integration and select it
- Authenticate with your account
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.- Go to your node library and search for the integration
- Click Create a node with AI
- Describe the specific action you want (e.g., “Search pages in the Engineering space”)
- 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.

Example Prompts
Use these with your agent or in the Agent Node: Find pages:Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Agent not finding the right data | Use specific space names or search terms |
| Action not completing | Check that you’ve authenticated and have permissions for the space |
| Unexpected results | The 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 available | Verify the tool is enabled in your agent’s MCP configuration |
