Deletion of shares cannot be easily undone and directly impacts data access for downstream consumers. This is an irreversible destructive operation affecting business data sharing infrastructure, not a reversible modification.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_share' and description states 'Delete a share and withdraw the shared resources.' The verb 'delete' combined with 'withdraw' indicates irreversible removal of data sharing configurations and access.

POLICY

How to control delete_share

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and SAP Business Data Cloud MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for delete_share:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "delete_share"
  ]
}

delete_share disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.
