Patch attachments for a top-level GHL note.
AI agents use update_note_attachments 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.
This tool creates or modifies data reversibly by patching/updating attachments associated with notes in a CRM system. While it modifies data, the operation is reversible (attachments can be re-patched or removed). It does not execute external code, delete data irreversibly, or involve financial transactions. The context of GoHighLevel CRM with 461+ tools suggests this is part of normal CRM data management operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'update_note_attachments' and description 'Patch attachments for a top-level GHL note' indicate modification of existing data (attachments) within a note record.

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 update_note_attachments:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"update_note_attachments": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "update_note_attachments_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
}update_note_attachments 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.
