Create a new product in GoHighLevel

How to control ghl_create_product ↓

AI agents use ghl_create_product 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

Creating a product is a write operation—it adds new data to the system without deletion or financial transaction. While product creation could have downstream effects (e.g., products linked to sales workflows), the tool itself performs a reversible data creation operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name and description indicate product creation: 'Create a new product in GoHighLevel'. This creates new data (a product) in the CRM system, which is reversible through deletion or modification.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access ghl_create_product 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 ghl_create_product:

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

ghl_create_product 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.

  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
