FAQ

What authentication methods does this server support?

The server supports authentication via API tokens generated in Atlassian. You need to provide your site name, email, and API token through environment variables, a .env file, or configuration file.

How can I reduce token costs when interacting with Confluence?

The server provides TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) output format by default, which uses 30-60% fewer tokens than JSON. You can also use JMESPath filtering (--jq parameter) to extract only the fields you need from API responses.
