WHAT IT DOES

What update_prompt_label does on Portkey Admin

AI agents use update_prompt_label to create or update resources in Portkey Admin, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Portkey Admin environment.

RISK

Why update_prompt_label is rated Medium

This tool modifies prompt labels, which is a reversible change to data. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money. The severity is medium because misuse could corrupt prompt metadata or configurations, affecting AI application behavior, but the impact is limited to label metadata rather than the prompts themselves or critical system state.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'update_prompt_label' and description states 'Update a prompt label', indicating modification of existing data.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_prompt_label safely

update_prompt_label Rate-limited

update_prompt_label 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.
