email_reports_dashboard_create

Create a scheduled email report built from a specific custom dashboard via /i/reports/create?report_type=dashboards. Requires the reports plugin (and typically the dashboards plugin for the referenced dashboard). For metric-based reports use email_reports_core_create.

Single-target operation

Part of the Countly MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.

AI agents use email_reports_dashboard_create to create or modify resources in Countly. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call email_reports_dashboard_create repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Countly.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.
