AI agents call get_campaigns to retrieve information from Iterable MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves campaign data from the Iterable platform without modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a straightforward query operation that returns information to the user. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—unauthorized access to campaign data could expose business intelligence but does not directly compromise system integrity or enable destructive actions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_campaigns' and description 'Retrieve campaigns' indicate a data retrieval operation with no side effects.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_campaigns gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Iterable MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_campaigns:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_campaigns": {}
}
}get_campaigns is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
Free to start. No card required.
Retrieve campaigns. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Iterable MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Iterable MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_campaigns: 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 Iterable MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_campaigns 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 get_campaigns 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 get_campaigns. 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.
get_campaigns is provided by the Iterable MCP Server MCP server (iterable/mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Iterable MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
