WHAT IT DOES

What update_configsource does on Logicmonitor

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

RISK

Why update_configsource is rated Medium

An AI agent can call update_configsource faster than any human can review: one bad instruction and it creates or modifies resources in Logicmonitor by the hundred, each call as confident as the last.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs update_configsource safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Logicmonitor, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For update_configsource, this is the rule to start with:

update_configsource Rate-limited

update_configsource stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Logicmonitor, apply this rule, and every update_configsource call is checked against it from then on.
