Why get_analytical_model needs a policy

This tool performs read-only retrieval of analytical model metadata and structure. While it accesses potentially sensitive metadata about data structures and analytical capabilities in a production SAP Datasphere environment, it does not execute queries, modify data, delete data, or perform financial operations.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Get[s] the OData service document and metadata for a specific analytical model' and 'Returns entity sets, dimensions, measures, and query capabilities.' It retrieves and queries metadata without modifying data.

How to control get_analytical_model

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_analytical_model": {}
  }
}

get_analytical_model is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register SAP Datasphere MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
