List all request attribute definitions (classic Config API v1).
AI agents call list_request_attributes to retrieve information from Dynatrace SaaS MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves existing request attribute definitions from Dynatrace without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing anything. Listing configuration metadata poses minimal risk—it exposes schema/structure information that is typically non-sensitive or already known to legitimate operators. An LLM agent misusing this tool would only retrieve data, not cause damage.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'list_request_attributes' and description 'List all request attribute definitions' indicate a retrieval operation with no side effects. The verb 'list' is a canonical Read action.

Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Dynatrace SaaS MCP Server. Nothing to install.
list_request_attributes is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the list_request_attributes 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.
