## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "transfer_collection_items",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why transfer_collection_items is rated Medium

Transferring items between collections moves data from one location to another, which is a write/modify operation. It creates or modifies collection contents reversibly. The blast radius is medium as it could reorganize collection structure across multiple collections, but it doesn't permanently delete data.

From the tool's own definition: "Transfer items between collections"

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Postman:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "transfer_collection_items": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "transfer_collection_items_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
