WHAT IT DOES

What 1ly_update_link does on 1ly

AI agents use 1ly_update_link to create or update resources in 1ly, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your 1ly environment.

RISK

Why 1ly_update_link is rated Medium

This tool modifies existing API link configurations reversibly. While not destructive (the link itself is not deleted), it can change critical operational settings on a financial/commerce platform (1ly.store for buying/selling APIs and launching tokens). An AI agent could maliciously redirect links, compromise integrations, or alter trading parameters.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'update' and description states 'Update an API link by id', indicating reversible modification of existing data. Requires API authentication (ONELY_API_KEY).
