Add contact to a marketing campaign

How to control add_contact_to_campaign ↓

AI agents use add_contact_to_campaign to create or update resources in GoHighLevel MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GoHighLevel MCP Server environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates a new association between a contact and a campaign, modifying the campaign's contact list. This is a reversible Write operation—the contact can be removed from the campaign later. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or move money.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'add_contact_to_campaign' and description 'Add contact to a marketing campaign' indicate a create/modify operation that adds a contact to an existing campaign resource.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access add_contact_to_campaign gives an agent:

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "add_contact_to_campaign": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "add_contact_to_campaign_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

add_contact_to_campaign 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.
