scan-flow-health

Batch-scan all Power Automate cloud flows for health metrics. Fetches run history for each flow and computes success rates, failure counts. WARNING: batch operation that may take several minutes.

What scan-flow-health does on PowerPlatform MCP

AI agents call scan-flow-health to retrieve information from PowerPlatform MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why scan-flow-health needs a policy

scan-flow-health performs read-only operations: fetching historical data and computing metrics. There are no side effects, state changes, or irreversible actions. The WARNING about duration reflects computational cost, not risk severity. This is a diagnostic/monitoring tool that queries existing flow metadata.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Fetches run history for each flow and computes success rates, failure counts' — purely retrieval and analysis of existing telemetry data with no modification, deletion, or execution of flows.

How to control scan-flow-health

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and PowerPlatform MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for scan-flow-health:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "scan-flow-health": {}
  }
}

scan-flow-health 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 PowerPlatform MCP — 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.

Batch-scan all Power Automate cloud flows for health metrics. Fetches run history for each flow and computes success rates, failure counts. WARNING: batch operation that may take several minutes. It is categorised as a Read tool in the PowerPlatform MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on scan-flow-health? +

Register the PowerPlatform MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for scan-flow-health: 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 PowerPlatform MCP. Nothing to install.

What risk level is scan-flow-health? +

scan-flow-health is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit scan-flow-health? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the scan-flow-health 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.

How do I block scan-flow-health completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for scan-flow-health. 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.

What MCP server provides scan-flow-health? +

scan-flow-health is provided by the PowerPlatform MCP server (michsob/powerplatform-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every PowerPlatform MCP tool call.

Start from PowerPlatform MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
