WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why pbir_rename_page needs a policy

Renaming a page is a metadata modification that can be undone by renaming again to a previous name. It does not delete data, execute arbitrary code, move financial resources, or create permanent damage. However, it does modify the report structure, which could affect dependent references or cause confusion in collaborative environments if misused.

From the tool's definition The tool 'pbir_rename_page' performs a 'Rename' operation on an existing page, which modifies metadata within a Power BI report file (PBIR format). This is a reversible change that alters data structure without deletion or irreversible destruction.
