AI agents call pagerduty_acknowledge_incident to retrieve information from UnClick without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
api_key | string | Yes | PagerDuty API key |
incident_id | string | Yes | Incident ID to acknowledge |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Even though pagerduty_acknowledge_incident only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

pagerduty_acknowledge_incident accepts 2 parameters: api_key, incident_id. Required: api_key, incident_id. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the UnClick MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for pagerduty_acknowledge_incident: 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 UnClick. Nothing to install.
pagerduty_acknowledge_incident is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the pagerduty_acknowledge_incident 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.
