What uxi_create_group does on API-Central
AI agents use uxi_create_group to create or update resources in API-Central, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your API-Central environment.
Why uxi_create_group is rated Medium
Creating a UXI group is a reversible modification operation that adds new network infrastructure configuration. While it modifies system state, it can be undone through deletion. It does not execute arbitrary code, delete data irreversibly, or involve financial transactions. The 'read-write' permission requirement confirms write-level access.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'uxi_create_group' indicates creation operation ('create'). Description states 'Create a UXI group' and requires 'read-write' permission, confirming write capability.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs uxi_create_group safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and API-Central, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For uxi_create_group, this is the rule to start with:
uxi_create_group 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.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect API-Central, apply this rule, and every uxi_create_group call is checked against it from then on.
