Overview

End-to-end automation for ownership mapping, inactivity detection, and actionable reporting.

The AI agent scans selected Confluence spaces via the REST API to map each page to its owner. It resolves owner accounts in bulk and flags pages where the owner is inactive. It outputs a consolidated report with page title, owner email, account status, last updated date, and direct page URL to support governance and cleanup.

It scans selected Confluence spaces for pages and their owners using the Confluence REST API v2. It fetches spaces, pages, and user data, then resolves owners to account details. The agent flags pages where the owner is inactive and compiles a report with page title, owner contact, status, last updated, and the page URL. The process is end-to-end and configurable for scope and export options.

The agent checks the owner’s account status from the bulk lookup response. If ownerStatus is not equal to active, that page is flagged as having an inactive owner. The filtering step ensures only these pages are included in the final report. This provides a clear, auditable set of remediation tasks.

Yes. You configure the Atlassian domain and space keys in the Set Variables step to define which spaces to scan. You can add or remove space keys to adjust scope as needed. The agent uses these inputs to fetch relevant spaces and pages only. This makes the workflow adaptable to migrations or governance reviews.

Yes. The agent can export the final report to CSV or JSON formats and can be extended to email or Slack notifications. The export makes it easy to share ownership data with stakeholders. You can also store the report in a connected storage location for archival purposes.

You need read access to Confluence spaces, pages, and users. The workflow uses REST API calls to fetch spaces and pages and to resolve owner accounts, so adequate permissions are essential. Ensure the API token or credential has the necessary scope to read space metadata, pages, and user profiles.

Yes. The setup can include pagination if spaces contain many pages. Pagination helps to avoid missing pages when there are more results than the per-request limit. You can enable it to ensure complete coverage of all pages within the scanned spaces.

The report is generated in the chosen export format (CSV/JSON) and can be saved locally or to connected storage. You can attach it to a ticket, share it with stakeholders, or integrate it into your governance workflow. The agent’s output is designed to be actionable and easy to distribute.
