# whatsapp_upload_media Upload a media file to WhatsApp and get a media ID for use in messages. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `whatsapp_upload_media`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/whatsapp-upload-media ## Facts - Tool: `whatsapp_upload_media` - Server: UnClick (`@unclick/mcp-server`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server.md - Install: `npx -y @unclick/mcp-server` - Homepage: https://github.com/malamutemayhem/unclick-agent-native-endpoints.git - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 5 (4 required) - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `filename` | string | no | | | `media_url` | string | yes | URL to fetch the media from | | `mime_type` | string | yes | MIME type, e.g. image/jpeg, video/mp4 | | `bearer_token` | string | yes | | | `phone_number_id` | string | yes | | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "whatsapp_upload_media", "arguments": { "media_url": "", "mime_type": "", "bearer_token": "", "phone_number_id": "" } } } ``` ## Why whatsapp_upload_media is rated Medium This tool creates new media objects in WhatsApp by uploading files, which is a Write operation (reversible, non-destructive modification). While it could facilitate spam or malicious messaging if misused by an AI agent, it doesn't execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Upload a media file to WhatsApp and get a media ID for use in messages' — this is a create/modify operation that stores media on WhatsApp's servers and generates an ID for subsequent use." Risk signals: Accepts file system path (filename) ## Use case AI agents use whatsapp_upload_media to create or update resources in UnClick, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your UnClick environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches UnClick: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "whatsapp_upload_media": { "limits": [ { "counter": "whatsapp_upload_media_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on UnClick (1661) - `delete_todo` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/delete-todo.md - `email_delete` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/email-delete.md - `file_sync_prune` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/file-sync-prune.md - `pinecone_delete_vectors` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/pinecone-delete-vectors.md - `telegram_manage_chat` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/telegram-manage-chat.md - `upstash_redis_del` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/upstash-redis-del.md - `vault_action` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/vault-action.md - `vercel_delete_env` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/vercel-delete-env.md - `ackermann` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/ackermann.md - `anthropic_create_message` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/anthropic-create-message.md - `avl_tree` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/avl-tree.md - `baby_giant_step` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/baby-giant-step.md - `bellman_ford` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bellman-ford.md - `bezier_curve` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bezier-curve.md - `bitmask_ops` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bitmask-ops.md - `bitwise_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bitwise-calc.md - `bloom_filter` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bloom-filter.md - `bluesky_action` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/bluesky-action.md - `burrows_wheeler` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/burrows-wheeler.md - `cartesian_tree` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cartesian-tree.md - `chromatic_number` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/chromatic-number.md - `circleci_trigger_pipeline` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/circleci-trigger-pipeline.md - `cohere_chat` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cohere-chat.md - `cohere_classify` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cohere-classify.md - `cohere_generate` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/cohere-generate.md - `commonsensepass_check` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/commonsensepass-check.md - `complex_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/complex-calc.md - `compliancepass_run` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/compliancepass-run.md - `convex_hull_3d` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/convex-hull-3d.md - `convolution` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server/convolution.md - …and 1631 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-malamutemayhem-unclick-mcp-server.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
