AI agents call get_all_row_ids to retrieve information from Smartsheet MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs data retrieval only—it fetches row IDs from a Smartsheet document. There are no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no destructive or financial implications. It is a straightforward query operation consistent with the Read category.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_all_row_ids' and description 'Get all row IDs from a Smartsheet' indicate a retrieval operation that queries and returns row identifiers without modifying, deleting, or executing operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access get_all_row_ids gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Smartsheet MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for get_all_row_ids:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"get_all_row_ids": {}
}
}get_all_row_ids is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Get all row IDs from a Smartsheet. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Smartsheet MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Smartsheet MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_all_row_ids: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Smartsheet MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_all_row_ids is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_all_row_ids rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_all_row_ids. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_all_row_ids is provided by the Smartsheet MCP Server MCP server (terilios/smartsheet-server). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Smartsheet MCP Server, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
Free to start. No card required.
