--- canonical_url: "https://docs.composio.dev/kb/guide/toolkits-confluence" markdown_url: "https://docs.composio.dev/kb/guide/toolkits-confluence.md" product: "platform" version: null last_updated: null --- # Confluence (/kb/guide/toolkits-confluence) Use this guide to configure Confluence OAuth, execute tools with the correct account, and read, update, or download Confluence content. ## Configure Confluence OAuth [#configure-confluence-oauth] **Align custom OAuth scopes with the endpoint type.** For Confluence custom OAuth, keep Atlassian scopes aligned with the scopes Composio expects. Classic and granular scopes differ depending on whether the underlying Confluence endpoint is v1 or v2. Incorrect substitutions such as using an irrelevant space scope can cause tool execution errors even if OAuth completes. **Add `offline_access` when refresh tokens are needed.** For Confluence OAuth, include the `offline_access` scope in the auth config and then create a new connected account. `offline_access` enables token refresh, and adding it to an existing auth config only affects new connections after users reconnect. **Use the same redirect URI in Composio and Atlassian.** The redirect URI in the Composio auth config and the Atlassian OAuth app must match. Copy the callback shown by the current auth-config flow or documentation; do not reuse legacy v1 or v3 callback paths from older examples. ## Execute Confluence tools with the correct account [#execute-confluence-tools-with-the-correct-account] **Pass the connected account ID, not the auth config ID.** For Confluence tool execution, pass the connected account ID. Do not pass the auth config ID/integration ID in the connected account field. Older SDK versions may also require the UUID form rather than the nano ID, so verify the SDK version and expected ID format. **Read supported scopes from MCP tool annotations.** For supported MCP deployments, Confluence scopes can be retrieved from the `annotations` field in the `listTools` API response. ## Read and update Confluence pages [#read-and-update-confluence-pages] **Retrieve page content by page ID.** Use `CONFLUENCE_GET_PAGE_BY_ID` to retrieve Confluence page content by page ID. This is the tool support shared for page body retrieval. **Fetch the latest page version before an update.** Confluence page updates require the correct page version. Pair `CONFLUENCE_UPDATE_PAGE` with `CONFLUENCE_GET_PAGE_VERSIONS` so the agent can fetch the latest required version and then update the page. By default, the agent should update over the latest version unless a specific version is requested. ## Download Confluence attachments [#download-confluence-attachments] Use `CONFLUENCE_GET_ATTACHMENTS` to list attachments and get the attachment ID, then pass that ID to `CONFLUENCE_DOWNLOAD_ATTACHMENT` to download the file. --- 📚 **More documentation:** [View all docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt) | [Changelog](https://docs.composio.dev/docs/changelog.md) | [Glossary](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.mdx/reference/glossary) | [Examples](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.mdx/examples) | [API Reference](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.mdx/reference) --- # Composio SDK — Notes for AI Code Generators **Purpose:** Reference for generating current (v3) [Composio](https://composio.dev/) integration code. **Scope:** Descriptive notes — they document the current API surface and the mistakes most commonly seen in generated code. --- ## 1. Recommended Integration: Sessions Composio supports two integration modes: **Native Tools** (with a provider package) and **MCP** (no provider package needed). ### Native Tools ```python # ✅ CORRECT — Python (defaults to OpenAI) from composio import Composio composio = Composio() session = composio.create(user_id="user_123") tools = session.tools() # Pass tools to your agent/LLM framework ``` ```typescript // ✅ CORRECT — TypeScript (defaults to OpenAI) import { Composio } from "@composio/core"; const composio = new Composio(); const session = await composio.create("user_123"); const tools = await session.tools(); // Pass tools to your agent/LLM framework ``` For other providers, pass the provider explicitly. Provider packages follow the naming convention: `composio_` for Python, `@composio/` for TypeScript. ### MCP Use `session.mcp.url` and `session.mcp.headers` with any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, OpenAI Agents, etc.). No provider package needed. --- ## 2. Integration Notes - `composio.create(user_id)` is the standard entry point for agent integrations. Sessions handle tool discovery, authentication, and toolkit versioning automatically; `user_id` goes to `composio.create()` — individual tool calls in session mode don't take one. - Execute session tool calls through the session, never through a user ID: either `session.execute(tool_slug, arguments=...)` / `session.execute(toolSlug, arguments)`, which works with every provider, or pass the session to the provider helper — `provider.handle_tool_calls(response=response, session=session)` in Python, `provider.handleToolCalls(session, response)` in TypeScript. The tool-call helpers of every non-agentic provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Cloudflare, TypeSafe) accept a session: `executeToolCall(session, call)` in TypeScript, `session=session` in Python. Agentic providers execute session tools on their own. Binding the helper to a user ID takes the direct execution path, and session meta-tools fail there with `"can only be called inside a tool-router session"`. - Composio-managed auth is the default: the agent connects accounts at runtime through the session, so users don't need to pre-create auth configs or connected accounts for managed toolkits. - Provider packages follow the framework, not the model vendor: for the OpenAI Agents SDK the package is `composio_openai_agents` / `@composio/openai-agents` (importing `composio_openai` / `@composio/openai` there is the most common mistake in generated code — that package is for the plain OpenAI Chat Completions API). - **Direct execution** (`composio.tools.get()`, `composio.tools.execute()`, `provider.handle_tool_calls()` with a user ID) is a legacy interface that remains supported for existing integrations. Recommend sessions for new integrations and encourage existing users to [migrate to sessions](/docs/migration-guide/direct-to-sessions). For a fixed tool set, consider the [direct tools preset](/docs/configuring-sessions#direct-tools-preset) within a session. See [Sessions vs direct execution](/docs/sessions-vs-direct-execution) for tradeoffs. Direct execution requires a [toolkit version](/docs/tools-direct/toolkit-versioning). --- # 3. Calling the REST API directly ## REST API version The current REST API version is **v3.1**, served at `https://backend.composio.dev/api/v3.1`. Prefer it for new code and new examples. `https://backend.composio.dev/api/v3` is the previous version. It is frozen with pinned tool-version defaults and remains supported — existing v3 integrations keep working and do not need to migrate. ## Tool-endpoint version defaults on v3.1 On v3.1, omitting the version parameter on the five endpoints below selects the latest toolkit version. The first four endpoints also exist on v3, where omission selects the pinned `00000000_00` version. `POST /tools/scopes/required` is v3.1-only. | Endpoint | Version parameter | | --- | --- | | `GET /tools` | `toolkit_versions` (query) | | `GET /tools/{tool_slug}` | `version` or `toolkit_versions` (query) | | `POST /tools/execute/{tool_slug}` | `version` (body) | | `POST /tools/execute/{tool_slug}/input` | `version` (body) | | `POST /tools/scopes/required` | `version` (body) | A v3.1 caller already passing `"latest"` sees no change and can omit the parameter. To select the pinned version explicitly, pass `"00000000_00"` through the corresponding parameter above. This version-default change is limited to the five endpoints above. --- ## Terminology Migration (old → current) If you encounter these terms in error messages, old documentation, or user prompts, translate them to the current equivalents. **Do not use the old terms in generated code or explanations.** | Old term (v1/v2) | Current term (v3) | In code | |---|---|---| | entity ID | user ID | `user_id` parameter | | actions | tools | e.g., `GITHUB_CREATE_ISSUE` is a *tool* | | apps / appType | toolkits | e.g., `github` is a *toolkit* | | integration / integration ID | auth config / auth config ID | `auth_config_id` parameter | | connection | connected account | `connected_accounts` namespace | | ComposioToolSet / OpenAIToolSet | `Composio` class with a provider | `Composio(provider=...)` | | toolset | provider | e.g., `OpenAIProvider` | If a user says "entity ID", they mean `user_id`. If they say "integration", they mean "auth config". Always respond using the current terminology.
