Atlassian's team wiki for pages, specs and procedures. Through the Atlassian Rovo MCP server, an AI client can search and summarize pages, using Rovo credits as it goes.

Best for
  • Teams keeping procedures and specs in one wiki
  • Asking an AI client to summarize a planning page
Not for
  • Personal notes
  • Pages whose permissions haven't been reviewed before an AI client reads them

Top use cases

In depth

Atlassian Rovo MCP server

Confluence uses the same Atlassian remote MCP server as Jira, at https://mcp.atlassian.com/v2/mcp. One of Atlassian's own examples is summarizing a planning page. Calls use Rovo credits. Checked 2026-10-18. source ↗

Plans

Free covers up to 10 users with 2 GB of storage. At the default team size the page shows Standard at about $5.78 per user per month. Checked 2026-10-18. source ↗

How to use it with AI

How Confluence connects to each AI platform: native connector or MCP, API through code the agent writes, browser control, or file upload.

PlatformMCP / connectorAPI (agent-written code)BrowserUpload / export
Claude (incl. Claude Code) Not documented Confluence has an official MCP server and Claude (incl. Claude Code) supports MCP, but Confluence's docs don't name this pairing. Auth setup may differ.

Confirmed is reserved for evidence of the specific connection route. The current named integrations include plugins, skills and CLIs, so a named platform alone does not confirm MCP or a native connector. Inferred means each side documents a relevant capability, but no document describes the pairing. Code execution still needs network and credential access; file handling still needs a compatible format and transfer direction. Not documented means the records do not establish the route. IonBin has not tested these pairings. Recorded Oct 18, 2026.

Connection capabilities to compare

An official MCP server is documented for this tool. These platforms separately document MCP client support: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Gemini (Google), Google Antigravity, Grok, Grok Bot, Lindy, LM Studio, Mistral Vibe, OpenAI Codex. This inventory does not establish compatible transport, authentication or actions for a pairing. Check the connection matrix and linked sources.

Automation hubs to assess for a custom API connection: Gumloop, Make, n8n, Zapier. Verify credentials, supported requests, limits and error handling; no configured integration is implied.
