Summary

The Confluence client automatically appends /wiki to the baseUrl stored in the authentication profile when building API request URLs (e.g. ${baseUrl}/wiki/rest/api/...). This behavior was undocumented, which could confuse users who include /wiki in their --site value and end up with doubled paths.

Changes

  • Updated the --site option description in the atlcli auth built-in help text to clarify that the URL should be the root instance URL (e.g. https://company.atlassian.net) and that /wiki must not be included — Confluence appends it automatically.

Nice catch, David — the doubled /wiki/wiki path is a common gotcha. Putting the warning right in the --help output is the best place to catch it. Squash-merged, thanks!
