Get a single CDV filter association by its numeric ID.
AI agents call get_filter_association to retrieve information from Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves filter association data by ID. It performs a read-only operation with no side effects—no data is created, modified, deleted, or used to trigger external operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal, as it only exposes existing configuration data about filter associations.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_filter_association' and description 'Get a single CDV filter association by its numeric ID' indicate retrieval of existing data without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a single CDV filter association by its numeric ID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_filter_association: 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 Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_filter_association 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_filter_association 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_filter_association. 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_filter_association is provided by the Cloudera Data Visualization MCP Server MCP server (kevintalbert/cdv-mcp-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
