Why get_page needs a policy

This is a straightforward query operation that fetches page data from Notion. It performs no write, delete, execute, or financial operations. The retrieval of existing data with no side effects fits the Read category with low severity, as misuse would at worst expose data the agent already has permission to access.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_page' and description 'Retrieve a Notion page by its ID' indicate data retrieval with no modification or side effects.

How to control get_page

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

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "get_page": {}
  }
}

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

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