What DescribeDeviceChildGroups does on Ioacloud
AI agents call DescribeDeviceChildGroups to retrieve information from Ioacloud without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
OsType | number | — | 系统类型（0: win，1：linux，2: mac，4：android，5：ios，-1：全系统（SaaS一体化版本） ； 不传默认为0）(只支持32位) |
ParentId | number | — | 父分组id，默认0：表示获取全网终端分组 |
Condition | object | — | 过滤条件参数（字段含义请参考接口返回值） - Name, 类型String，支持操作：【like，ilike】，支持排序 分页参数 - PageNum 从1开始，小于等于0时使用默认参数 - PageSize 最大值5000，最好不超过100 |
DomainInstanceId | string | — | 管理域实例ID，用于CAM管理域权限分配。若企业未进行管理域的划分，可直接传入根域"1"，此时表示针对当前企业的全部设备和账号进行接口CRUD，具体CRUD的影响范围限制于相应接口的入参。 |

Why DescribeDeviceChildGroups is rated Low
Even though DescribeDeviceChildGroups only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs DescribeDeviceChildGroups safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Ioacloud, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For DescribeDeviceChildGroups, this is the rule to start with:
DescribeDeviceChildGroups is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Ioacloud, apply this rule, and every DescribeDeviceChildGroups call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about DescribeDeviceChildGroups
[device] 查询设备组子分组详情，私有化调用path为：capi/Assets/Device/DescribeDeviceChildGroups. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Ioacloud MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
DescribeDeviceChildGroups accepts 4 parameters: OsType, ParentId, Condition, DomainInstanceId. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Ioacloud MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for DescribeDeviceChildGroups: 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 Ioacloud. Nothing to install.
DescribeDeviceChildGroups is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the DescribeDeviceChildGroups 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 DescribeDeviceChildGroups. 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.
DescribeDeviceChildGroups is provided by the Ioacloud MCP server (@ioacloud/ioacloud-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
