Query GA4 analytics data by dimensions (e.g., "city", "pagePath") and metrics (e.g., "activeUsers", "sessions") for a date range. Returns aggregated data rows with dimension and metric values.

AI agents invoke ga_run_report to trigger processes or run actions in Google_analytics. Execute operations can have side effects beyond the immediate call -- triggering builds, sending notifications, or starting workflows. Rate limits and argument validation are essential to prevent runaway execution.
ga_run_report can trigger processes with real-world consequences. An uncontrolled agent might start dozens of builds, send mass notifications, or kick off expensive compute jobs. PolicyLayer enforces rate limits and validates arguments to keep execution within safe bounds.
Execute tools trigger processes. Rate-limit and validate arguments to prevent unintended side effects.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access ga_run_report gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Query GA4 analytics data by dimensions (e.g., "city", "pagePath") and metrics (e.g., "activeUsers", "sessions") for a date range. Returns aggregated data rows with dimension and metric values.. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Google_analytics MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.
Register the Google_analytics MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ga_run_report: 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 Google_analytics. Nothing to install.
ga_run_report is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the ga_run_report 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for ga_run_report. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
ga_run_report is provided by the Google_analytics MCP server (https://gateway.pipeworx.io/google_analytics/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
