Why sac_transport_create_import_job needs a policy

This tool creates a new import job, which is a write operation that establishes a process to import content into SAP Analytics Cloud. While imports can potentially affect many system resources and configurations, the operation itself is reversible (the job and imported content can be removed or corrected). It does not permanently delete data (Destructive), move money (Financial), or execute arbitrary code (Execute).

From the tool's definition Tool creates an import job for content transport, which modifies the SAP Analytics Cloud environment by ingesting external content/data.

How to control sac_transport_create_import_job

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Sap Analytics Cloud, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for sac_transport_create_import_job:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "sac_transport_create_import_job": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "sac_transport_create_import_job_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

sac_transport_create_import_job stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
