Why meta_delete_campaign needs a policy

Destructive actions that permanently remove or irreversibly modify data rank highest in the category hierarchy. Although described as 'archives', the clarification that it 'cannot be undone' confirms this is a destructive operation. A deleted campaign cannot be recovered, making this a critical business impact.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Deletes (archives) a campaign. This cannot be undone.' The explicit statement 'cannot be undone' combined with the 'delete' action on a campaign resource indicates irreversible data loss.

POLICY

How to control meta_delete_campaign

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

policy.json

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

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

Create a free account and register Meta MCP Server — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
