WHAT IT DOES

What deleteEntityTypeWithId does on Fusionauth

AI agents call deleteEntityTypeWithId to permanently remove resources in Fusionauth, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why deleteEntityTypeWithId is rated Critical

This tool irreversibly removes an Entity Type resource. Deletion is a non-reversible destructive action. While the blast radius is bounded to a single entity type (not system-wide), the operation cannot be undone without restoration from backups, making it a high-severity destructive action.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Deletes the Entity Type for the given Id.' The verb 'Deletes' indicates irreversible removal of data.
