Overview
The "Delete Footer Comment" operation in the Confluence Cloud node allows users to permanently delete a footer comment by its ID. This action is irreversible and removes the specified comment from the Confluence instance. It is useful for managing and cleaning up comments on pages, blog posts, or other content types within Confluence where footer comments are used.
Typical use cases include:
- Removing outdated or irrelevant footer comments from a page or blog post.
- Moderating comments to maintain content quality.
- Automating cleanup of comments as part of content lifecycle management.
Example: If a user wants to delete a specific footer comment on a Confluence page, they provide the comment's ID, and this operation will permanently remove that comment.
Properties

Output
The output of this operation typically contains the response from the Confluence API after attempting to delete the footer comment. Since this is a deletion operation, the output JSON usually confirms success or failure but does not return the deleted comment data.
json: Contains the API response indicating the result of the delete operation.- No binary data is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an active connection to a Confluence Cloud instance.
- Requires an API authentication token or API key credential with permissions to delete comments.
- The user must have permission to view the content associated with the comment and permission to delete comments in the corresponding space.
Troubleshooting
- Permission Errors: If the user lacks permission to delete comments or view the content, the API will return an authorization error. Ensure the API credentials have sufficient rights.
- Invalid Comment ID: Providing a non-existent or incorrect comment ID will result in an error indicating the comment was not found.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the Confluence Cloud instance can cause request failures.
- Permanent Deletion Warning: Since deletion is permanent, ensure that the correct comment ID is provided to avoid accidental data loss.
