Atlassian Confluence

Atlassian Confluence is a team workspace and wiki platform for creating, organizing and collaborating on documentation, project plans, meeting notes and knowledge bases. Confluence Cloud publishes two OpenAPI-described REST surfaces — a legacy v1 API under /wiki/rest/api and the recommended cursor-paginated v2 API under /wiki/api/v2, 348 operations between them — plus a public GraphQL gateway at api.atlassian.com and the official Atlassian Rovo MCP Server, whose Confluence slice exposes 60 named tools to AI agents over OAuth 2.1. Authentication is basic auth with an account API token, OAuth 2.0 three-legged authorization for apps, or JWT for Connect apps; the Forge platform is the sanctioned way to build and host Confluence apps.

Atlassian Confluence publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: Confluence Cloud REST API v2 and Confluence Cloud REST API v1. Tagged areas include Atlassian, Collaboration, Content Management, Documentation, and Knowledge-Management.

The Atlassian Confluence catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Atlassian Confluence’s developer surface includes authentication, changelog, sandbox, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, and 43 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/atlassian-confluence: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Submit an artifact on GitHub — free → Manage your own listing — the Influence plan, $499/mo →
