List workflows in the Birst account. Supports filtering by creator, status, and scheduling.
AI agents call birst_list_workflows to retrieve information from Infor Birst MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and queries workflow metadata without side effects. It supports filtering and retrieval operations only, which is characteristic of Read category tools. The low severity reflects minimal blast radius—listing existing workflows poses no risk to data integrity or system operations.
From the tool's definition Tool name includes 'list' and description states 'List workflows in the Birst account' with filtering options (creator, status, scheduling). No mention of creation, modification, deletion, or execution capabilities.
