  title: Confluence Reply to a Page Comment Thread
  summary: List the footer comments on a page, read the thread being answered, post a reply, and read the thread back.
  description: >-
    Bots and integrations that answer questions in Confluence need to reply into
    an existing thread rather than start a new one. The flow lists the footer
    comments on a page, reads the specific comment being answered to confirm it
    is still open and belongs to that page, posts a reply carrying the
    parentCommentId that nests it under the original, and then reads the
    thread's children back to confirm the reply landed. Every step spells out
    its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without opening the
    underlying OpenAPI description.
