WHAT IT DOES

What createDocumentFromUpload does on Stable Baseline

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

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`title`	string	—	Optional document title. Defaults to the upload's filename without extension.
`folderId`	string	—	Optional folder. Must belong to projectId.
`projectId`	string	Yes	Must match the project the session was created for.
`sessionId`	string	Yes	From createDocumentIngestSession.
`changeSummary`	string	—	Optional changelog message for the version snapshot taken when the ingest finalises.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why createDocumentFromUpload is rated Medium

This tool creates documents (reversible write operation). The blast radius is medium because: (1) new documents become part of the company's knowledge base, (2) if invoked carelessly on large/sensitive files, it could populate the knowledge graph with unintended content, but (3) documents are created as drafts and the operation is reversible (deletion implied by other tooling).

From the tool's definition Tool description states the tool 'start[s] the async conversion' and 'the document is created as a draft', indicating document creation with side effects. Described as 'Step 2 of file ingest', confirming it modifies system state by creating new documents.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs createDocumentFromUpload safely

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

createDocumentFromUpload Rate-limited

createDocumentFromUpload 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 Stable Baseline, apply this rule, and every createDocumentFromUpload call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about createDocumentFromUpload

What does the createDocumentFromUpload tool do? +

Step 2 of file ingest. After the file is uploaded via the PUT URL from createDocumentIngestSession, call this to start the async conversion. Returns { jobId, documentId } immediately — the document is created as a draft and progressively populated as the worker processes the file. Poll getDocumentIngestJob({ jobId }) to track progress. Idempotent: calling twice with the same sessionId returns the same job/document. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Stable Baseline MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

What parameters does createDocumentFromUpload accept? +

createDocumentFromUpload accepts 5 parameters: title, folderId, projectId, sessionId, changeSummary. Required: projectId, sessionId. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on createDocumentFromUpload? +

Register the Stable Baseline MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for createDocumentFromUpload: 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 Stable Baseline. Nothing to install.

What risk level is createDocumentFromUpload? +

createDocumentFromUpload is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit createDocumentFromUpload? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the createDocumentFromUpload 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.

How do I block createDocumentFromUpload completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for createDocumentFromUpload. 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.

What MCP server provides createDocumentFromUpload? +

createDocumentFromUpload is provided by the Stable Baseline MCP server (https://api.stablebaseline.io/functions/v1/cloud-serve/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
