Create a new page in Confluence. Requires space ID, title, and content in storage format.
AI agents use confluence_create_page to create or update resources in Atlassian — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Atlassian environment.
This tool creates new data (a Confluence page) that is reversible (pages can be deleted or modified later). It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The blast radius is medium: a compromised agent could create numerous pages, spam workspaces, or pollute documentation, but the action is not destructive and can be undone.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description: 'Create a new page in Confluence' — the verb 'Create' and the action of adding new content indicates data creation. Requires 'space ID, title, and content' as inputs, which are used to generate persistent new resources.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access confluence_create_page gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Atlassian, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for confluence_create_page:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"confluence_create_page": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "confluence_create_page_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}confluence_create_page 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.

Create a new page in Confluence. Requires space ID, title, and content in storage format. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Atlassian MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Atlassian MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for confluence_create_page: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Atlassian. Nothing to install.
confluence_create_page is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the confluence_create_page rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for confluence_create_page. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
confluence_create_page is provided by the Atlassian MCP server (xuanxt/atlassian-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Atlassian, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
