Use Confluence: its Confluence Cloud REST Content restrictions API lets you check if a user is in a content restriction in a single step (GET /wiki/rest/api/content/{id}/restriction/byOperation/{operationKey}/user). Confluence also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.
