automations \u00b7 POST /v1/automations \u2014 Inserts automation Requires a JSON request body.
AI agents use automations_automations_1 to create or update resources in Vicarius vRx MCP Server — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Vicarius vRx MCP Server environment.
This tool creates a new automation record via a POST request. Creating automations can have significant downstream effects as automations typically trigger actions on endpoints, patches, or vulnerabilities at scale. This is a Write operation (reversible creation), but with high severity due to the blast radius of automated operations being deployed.
