RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs create_cloudflow_connection safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Doit, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create_cloudflow_connection, this is the rule to start with:

create_cloudflow_connection Rate-limited

create_cloudflow_connection 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.

Questions about create_cloudflow_connection

What does the create_cloudflow_connection tool do? +

Use this when the user wants to create a new CloudFlow cloud provider connection (a GCP or AWS account connected for automation). Exactly one of gcpConfig or awsConfig must be supplied. Changes apply immediately. Do NOT use this to update an existing connection (use update_cloudflow_connection) or to trigger a flow (use trigger_cloud_flow). It is categorised as a Write tool in the Doit MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does create_cloudflow_connection accept? +

create_cloudflow_connection accepts 7 parameters: name, enabled, awsConfig, gcpConfig, description, collaborators, idempotencyKey. Required: name, idempotencyKey. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on create_cloudflow_connection? +

Register the Doit MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_cloudflow_connection: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Doit. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_cloudflow_connection? +
