identity_list_oauth2_providers
AI agents call identity_list_oauth2_providers to retrieve information from AWS IoT SiteWise MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool name suggests a read-only operation that retrieves a list of OAuth2 providers from an identity system. No description is provided, which lowers confidence slightly, but the clear 'list' verb indicates data retrieval with no side effects. This is consistent with identity management queries that don't modify state.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'identity_list_oauth2_providers' indicates listing/retrieving OAuth2 provider configurations. The 'list' operation and 'identity' context suggest querying existing authentication provider data without modification.
