What create_sdwan_health_check does on Fortimanager
AI agents use create_sdwan_health_check to create or update resources in Fortimanager, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fortimanager environment.
Why create_sdwan_health_check is rated Medium
The 'create_' prefix strongly implies creating a new resource (an SD-WAN health check), which is a Write operation. Based on sibling tools context (FortiManager network configuration), this likely creates a reversible configuration entry. Empty description reduces confidence; severity is medium as misconfigured health checks could affect SD-WAN path selection.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_sdwan_health_check' suggests creating a new SD-WAN health check configuration object. Description is empty, lowering confidence.
