Get Content Attachments
confluence_get_attachmentsList attachments from a Confluence page or blog post with metadata like file size, type, and download links.
Instructions
List all attachments for a Confluence content item (page or blog post).
Returns metadata about attachments including:
Attachment ID, title, and file type
File size and download URL
Creation/modification dates
Version information
Important: Confluence API returns 'application/octet-stream' as the media type for most binary files (PNG, JPG, PDF) instead of specific types like 'image/png'. For filtering by file type, using the 'filename' parameter is more reliable (e.g., filename='*.png' pattern matching if supported, or exact filename).
Useful for:
Discovering what files are attached to a page
Getting attachment IDs for download operations
Checking if a specific file exists
Listing images/documents for processing
Args: ctx: The FastMCP context. content_id: The ID of the content. start: Starting index for pagination. limit: Maximum number of results (1-100). filename: Optional exact filename filter. media_type: Optional MIME type filter (note: most binaries return 'application/octet-stream').
Returns: JSON string with list of attachments and metadata.
