Overview
This skill provides analytics and statistics for Confluence content, including page view information, contributor data, space-level analytics, popular content identification, and watcher lists.
Note: Confluence Cloud has limited analytics APIs compared to Server/Data Center. This skill uses the v1 REST API's history endpoints and CQL queries to provide analytics insights.

Natural Language Examples
When you ask Claude about analytics, this skill will be triggered:
- "Show me the analytics for page 12345"
- "Who has contributed to this page?"
- "Get statistics for the DOCS space"
- "What are the most popular pages in the KB space?"
- "Show me the most recently updated content"
- "Who is watching page 12345?"
- "Find the top 5 most active pages"
- "Get space analytics for the last 30 days"
- "Show me featured content"
- "What are the most viewed pages?"
API Endpoints Used
This skill uses the following Confluence REST API endpoints:
v1 API (Legacy)
GET /rest/api/content/{id}?expand=history,version,history.contributors.publishers - Page analytics
GET /rest/api/search?cql={query} - CQL search for content
GET /rest/api/content/{id}/notification/child-created - Watchers
CQL Queries
space={key} AND type=page - All pages in space
space={key} AND created >= "{date}" - Recent content
type=page ORDER BY lastModified DESC - Recently modified
type=page ORDER BY created DESC - Recently created
label={name} - Content with label
Limitations
- No Direct View Count: Confluence Cloud API does not expose actual view/visit counts like Server/Data Center
- Watchers API: May be restricted on some Confluence Cloud instances
- Analytics Proxy: Uses modification dates, contributor lists, and labels as proxies for popularity
- Rate Limits: Large spaces may hit API rate limits during analytics gathering
