Pagination and state filtering are query parameters that constrain the result set without causing side effects. The blast radius of accidental misuse is minimal—worst case is exposure of workflow metadata already accessible to the authenticated user.

How to control get_journeys

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_journeys:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_journeys": {}
  }
}

get_journeys is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Iterable MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
