Why notion_retrieve_page_property needs a policy

This tool retrieves/queries data from Notion pages (a property value) with no side effects. It falls squarely into the Read category. The low severity reflects that unauthorized access to page properties poses minimal blast radius compared to write, delete, or execute operations. High confidence is warranted given the explicit 'Retrieve' language in the description.

From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Retrieve a property of a page in Notion' — the verb 'retrieve' indicates a read-only operation that queries existing data without modification.

How to control notion_retrieve_page_property

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

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "notion_retrieve_page_property": {}
  }
}

notion_retrieve_page_property is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Notion 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.
