Has anyone successfully automated Confluence page creation using MCP?

[Miguel Santos]

Hi everyone,

I'm currently trying to automate Confluence page creation using an MCP server with an AI coding tool. Reading pages works without any issues, but creating or updating pages doesn't seem to work as expected.

I've already checked the authentication and basic configuration, so I'm wondering if there are any additional permissions or settings required in Confluence Cloud.

Has anyone successfully set this up? If so, I'd really appreciate it if you could share your experience or point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Miguel Santos 

You would need to provide the whole body of the page.

So look at an existing page and via the page via API to see how a body is build, this has to be in the call to create a page.

Hi @Miguel Santos 

echo @Sebastian Krzewiński  do you see any errors?

Hows your write scope permission look like?

• Your integration must request a write scope.  Check that, try changing scopes, reconnect/re-authorise so the access token is reissued. See Atlassian API reference and scope guidance
• Are there any page restrictions?

A good isolation test is to sign into Confluence as the same account behind the MCP connection and manually create/edit a page in the exact target space. If that fails, it is space/page permission; if it succeeds, inspect the MCP server’s granted OAuth scopes and the API error/status body.
