Create a new item in Microsoft Fabric workspace

How to control create-fabric-item ↓

AI agents use create-fabric-item to create or update resources in Fabric-Analytics-MCP — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Fabric-Analytics-MCP environment.

Medium Risk

This tool creates new resources (items) in Microsoft Fabric workspaces, which is a reversible write operation. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data, or move money. The blast radius is medium because creating unexpected items could consume workspace resources, clutter the environment, or interfere with data pipelines, but effects are reversible through deletion.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create-fabric-item' and description 'Create a new item in Microsoft Fabric workspace' indicate data creation functionality within a cloud analytics platform.

Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create-fabric-item gives an agent:

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Fabric-Analytics-MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create-fabric-item:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "create-fabric-item": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "create-fabric-item_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

create-fabric-item stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register Fabric-Analytics-MCP — 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.
