create_location

Create a new sub-account/location in GoHighLevel (Agency Pro plan required)

How to control create_location ↓

AI agents use create_location to create or update resources in GoHighLevel MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GoHighLevel MCP Server environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates a new sub-account or location within GoHighLevel, which is a reversible data creation action (accounts/locations can be deleted or modified). It does not execute arbitrary code, permanently delete data, move money, or trigger uncontrolled external operations.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Create a new sub-account/location in GoHighLevel' — the verb 'Create' and the action of instantiating a new account/location entity are quintessential write operations that modify the system state reversibly.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_location gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_location:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create_location": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create_location_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create_location stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register GoHighLevel MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.

How do I enforce a policy on create_location? +

Register the GoHighLevel MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_location: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches GoHighLevel MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_location? +

create_location is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_location? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_location 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.

How do I block create_location completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_location. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides create_location? +

create_location is provided by the GoHighLevel MCP Server MCP server (busybee3333/go-high-level-mcp-2026-complete). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every GoHighLevel MCP Server tool call.
