Download the recording transcription for a message by passing the message id
AI agents call download-message-transcription to retrieve information from GoHighLevel MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves a transcription file associated with a message. Download/retrieval operations with no side effects fall squarely into the Read category. The severity is low because accessing message transcriptions, while potentially containing sensitive information, is a standard data retrieval that does not modify systems, execute code, or commit financial actions.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Download the recording transcription for a message by passing the message id' - this is a retrieval operation that accesses existing data without modification, deletion, or side effects.

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and GoHighLevel MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for download-message-transcription:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"download-message-transcription": {}
}
