What create_security_case_evidence does on OneUptime
AI agents use create_security_case_evidence to create or update resources in OneUptime, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your OneUptime environment.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
url | string | — | Where the evidence is kept, for Link evidence: an http or https address. |
kind | string | Yes | What the evidence is: a File uploaded to OneUptime, or a Link to evidence kept somewhere else. It can't be changed. |
name | string | Yes | What the evidence is, in a few words. A file's own name when none is given. |

The rule that runs create_security_case_evidence safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and OneUptime, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_security_case_evidence, this is the rule to start with:
create_security_case_evidence 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect OneUptime, apply this rule, and every create_security_case_evidence call is checked against it from then on.
