What export_report_data does on NowAIKit — ServiceNow AI Toolkit
AI agents call export_report_data to retrieve information from NowAIKit — ServiceNow AI Toolkit without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why export_report_data is rated Low
The tool retrieves and exports data from a ServiceNow table in JSON format. This is a read/query operation with no side effects. Severity is medium because it can expose potentially sensitive raw table data from ServiceNow (e.g., incidents, user info, configurations) in bulk to external consumers.

The rule that runs export_report_data safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and NowAIKit — ServiceNow AI Toolkit, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For export_report_data, this is the rule to start with:
export_report_data is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect NowAIKit — ServiceNow AI Toolkit, apply this rule, and every export_report_data call is checked against it from then on.
