WHAT IT DOES

What dataToTable does on Stable Baseline

AI agents use dataToTable 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
`x`	number	—	Top-left x on the canvas. Omit to auto-place below existing content.
`y`	number	—	Top-left y on the canvas. Omit to auto-place.
`data`	array	—	Alternative to rows: an array of objects; columns come from headers, or the first object's keys.
`rows`	array	—	Rows as arrays of cell strings. If headers is omitted, the first row is treated as the header row.
`headers`	array	—	Optional column headers (rendered as a styled header row). For data, also selects and orders the columns.
`cellWidth`	number	—	Cell width in px, 60-400 (default 160).
`cellHeight`	number	—	Cell height in px, 28-200 (default 40).
`documentId`	string	Yes	The whiteboard's documentId.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why dataToTable is rated Medium

This tool creates new visual content (a table) on a whiteboard. It modifies the whiteboard by adding elements, which is a reversible write operation. It does not delete data, execute code, or involve financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Render tabular data as an aligned grid of labelled cells on a whiteboard... the server lays out evenly-spaced cells... Auto-places below existing content unless x/y are given

Attacks that exploit this kind of access

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs dataToTable 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 dataToTable, this is the rule to start with:

dataToTable Rate-limited

dataToTable 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 dataToTable call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about dataToTable

What does the dataToTable tool do? +

Render tabular data as an aligned grid of labelled cells on a whiteboard, deterministically. Pass rows (an array of arrays) OR data (an array of objects), with optional headers; the server lays out evenly-spaced cells so you do NOT place each cell by hand. Use this to turn data, CSV, or JSON into a readable table on the board. Returns a compact summary. Auto-places below existing content unless x/y are given. 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 dataToTable accept? +

dataToTable accepts 8 parameters: x, y, data, rows, headers, cellWidth, cellHeight, documentId. Required: documentId. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on dataToTable? +

Register the Stable Baseline MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for dataToTable: 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 dataToTable? +

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

Can I rate-limit dataToTable? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the dataToTable 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 dataToTable completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for dataToTable. 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 dataToTable? +

dataToTable 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.
