What create-location does on GoHighLevel MCP Server
AI agents use create-location to create or update resources in GoHighLevel MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GoHighLevel MCP Server environment.
Why create-location is rated Medium
This tool creates a new sub-account/location in GoHighLevel, which is a reversible Write operation. It modifies the platform's account hierarchy and structure by adding a new account entity. Severity is high because creating sub-accounts could affect billing, user access, and multi-tenant configurations if misused by an AI agent without proper authorization checks.
From the tool's definition Tool creates a new Sub-Account (Formerly Location) - explicit 'Create' operation that adds a new entity to the system and modifies account structure.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs create-location safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For create-location, this is the rule to start with:
create-location 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 GoHighLevel MCP Server, apply this rule, and every create-location call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about create-location
<div> <p>Create a new Sub-Account (Formerly Location) based on the data provided</p> <div> <span style=. It is categorised as a Write tool in the GoHighLevel MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the GoHighLevel MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create-location: 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 GoHighLevel MCP Server. Nothing to install.
create-location is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create-location rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create-location. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
create-location is provided by the GoHighLevel MCP Server MCP server (drausal/gohighlevel-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
