# workspace_update

Edit the active workspace (or one named by workspace_id): its name, description, logo_url, and/or settings. Requires ADMIN role in that workspace. settings is MERGED, not replaced — send only the keys you want to change (e.g. {"translation_glossary": "..."} or {"translation_tts_provider": "cartesia"}); other keys are left intact. Omit workspace_id to target the workspace this MCP key is currently routed to (see workspace.current).

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "workspace_update",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why workspace_update is rated Medium

workspace_update modifies workspace configuration and metadata in a reversible manner. It does not delete data (Destructive), execute arbitrary code (Execute), or move money (Financial). It requires ADMIN role, which shows it's a sensitive administrative function, raising severity to high due to the blast radius of misconfiguring workspace settings across a unified communications platform.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states: 'Edit the active workspace (or one named by `workspace_id`): its name, description, logo_url, and/or `settings`.' The verb 'Edit' combined with modifiable fields (name, description, logo_url, settings) indicates creation or…"

Risk signals: Admin/system-level operation

## Use case

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

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Dialogbrain:

```json
