One ApexGenius account covers every pair below. Connect an app once and each agent you allow can use it.

Questions people ask first

Which Confluence spaces can an agent reach?

The spaces the authorizing account can already reach. ApexGenius never widens access beyond the permissions the account has in Confluence.

Can an agent publish or overwrite a page?

Write operations exist and can be switched off per connection. Anything that overwrites or removes content is marked destructive and runs when enabled.

Is page content stored by ApexGenius?

The ordinary MCP path does not intentionally retain page content. Connection, usage, and audit records are retained so you can review what ran.

Can I give one agent read-only access to Confluence?

Yes. Scope that client to read-only and the write operations never appear in its tool list at all.
