THE RISK

Why remove_privilege_from_role needs a policy

Removing a privilege from a security role is an irreversible access control change that revokes permissions. While it can technically be re-added, the act of revoking security permissions has significant blast radius — it could immediately break access for all users assigned that role, disrupting operations.

POLICY

How to control remove_privilege_from_role

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "remove_privilege_from_role"
  ]
}

remove_privilege_from_role disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
