API Reference

The tools use the Confluence Cloud REST API v2.

Authentication

All requests are authenticated using HTTP Basic Auth with:

• Username: Your Confluence email

• Password: Your API token

Content Format

Page content uses Confluence's Storage Format (HTML-based markup):

<p>This is a paragraph</p>
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<ul>
  <li>List item</li>
</ul>

Environment Variables

• CONFLUENCE_BASE_URL (required): Your Confluence instance URL (e.g., https://my-company.atlassian.net)

• CONFLUENCE_EMAIL (required): Your Confluence email address

• CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN (required): Your Confluence API token

Troubleshooting

Authentication Error

• Verify your email and API token are correct

• Ensure the API token hasn't expired

• Check that the base URL doesn't have a trailing slash

Page Not Found

• Verify the page ID is correct

• Ensure you have access to the page

• Check that the page exists and hasn't been deleted

Publishing Error

• Verify the space key is correct

• Ensure you have write permissions to the space

• Check the HTML format of the body content

Performance

• Search operations are cached for 5 minutes

• Batch operations are limited to 25 items by default

• API calls have a 30-second timeout

Security

• Never commit your API tokens or credentials

• Use environment variables for sensitive data

• Regenerate tokens if they're exposed

• Restrict API token permissions to minimum required
