测试数据源的连通性
AI agents call TestDataSourceConnectivity to retrieve information from Alibabacloud Dataworks without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
ProjectId | number | Yes | DataWorks项目空间ID |
DataSourceId | number | Yes | 待测试连通性的数据源ID，数据源ID是数据源的唯一标识符 |
ResourceGroupId | string | Yes | 资源组ID，即资源组的唯一标识符 |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the TestDataSourceConnectivity rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
