WHAT IT DOES

What get_workspace_member does on Portkey Admin

AI agents call get_workspace_member to retrieve information from Portkey Admin without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why get_workspace_member is rated Low

This is a straightforward data retrieval operation with no side effects. It queries and returns information about a workspace member. Misuse by an AI agent could expose user details, but the impact is read-only information disclosure—a low-severity risk. The tool requires pre-existing knowledge of both IDs, limiting accidental misuse surface area.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description: 'Get one workspace member' explicitly retrieves a specific user record by workspace_id and user_id. No modification, deletion, or execution occurs.
