createPage

Create a new page in Confluence (API v2, chỉ hỗ trợ spaceId)

How to control createPage ↓

AI agents use createPage to create or update resources in MCP Atlassian Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your MCP Atlassian Server environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates new content in Confluence, which is a reversible modification. It doesn't delete or overwrite existing data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), or move money (Financial). The medium severity reflects that an AI agent could create unwanted pages, spam, or inappropriate content, but the impact is limited since pages can be deleted and Confluence has access controls.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'createPage' and description 'Create a new page in Confluence' indicate data creation. The API v2 reference and spaceId parameter confirm creation of Confluence pages.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access createPage gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and MCP Atlassian Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for createPage:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "createPage": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "createpage_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

createPage stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register MCP Atlassian Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
