# ghl_update_association Update the labels of an existing association. Only user-defined associations can be updated. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `ghl_update_association`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/ghl-update-association ## Facts - Tool: `ghl_update_association` - Server: GoHighLevel MCP Server (`thinkbedo/gohighlevel_mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp.md - Homepage: https://github.com/ThinkBeDo/gohighlevel_mcp - Risk category: Write (Medium risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Rate-limited ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "ghl_update_association", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why ghl_update_association is rated Medium This tool updates metadata (labels) on an existing association within the GoHighLevel CRM, which is a reversible change. It does not delete data (would be Destructive), execute arbitrary operations (would be Execute), or create new records (lower Write severity). The medium severity reflects that mislabeling associations could create confusion in CRM workflows but can be corrected without data loss. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'Update the labels of an existing association', indicating it modifies data reversibly. The verb 'update' combined with 'labels' shows this is a non-destructive modification operation." ## Use case AI agents use ghl_update_association to create or update resources in GoHighLevel MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your GoHighLevel MCP Server environment. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches GoHighLevel MCP Server: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "ghl_update_association": { "limits": [ { "counter": "ghl_update_association_rate", "window": "minute", "max": 30, "scope": "grant" } ] } } } ``` ## Other tools on GoHighLevel MCP Server (254) - `bulk_delete_social_posts` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/bulk-delete-social-posts.md - `cancel_scheduled_email` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/cancel-scheduled-email.md - `cancel_scheduled_message` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/cancel-scheduled-message.md - `delete_appointment` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-appointment.md - `delete_appointment_note` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-appointment-note.md - `delete_calendar` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-calendar.md - `delete_calendar_group` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-calendar-group.md - `delete_calendar_notification` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-calendar-notification.md - `delete_calendar_resource_equipment` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-calendar-resource-equipment.md - `delete_calendar_resource_room` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-calendar-resource-room.md - `delete_contact` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-contact.md - `delete_contact_note` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-contact-note.md - `delete_contact_task` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-contact-task.md - `delete_conversation` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-conversation.md - `delete_coupon` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-coupon.md - `delete_custom_provider_integration` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-custom-provider-integration.md - `delete_email_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-email-template.md - `delete_invoice_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-invoice-template.md - `delete_location` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-location.md - `delete_location_custom_field` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-location-custom-field.md - `delete_location_custom_value` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-location-custom-value.md - `delete_location_tag` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-location-tag.md - `delete_location_template` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-location-template.md - `delete_media_file` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-media-file.md - `delete_object_record` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-object-record.md - `delete_opportunity` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-opportunity.md - `delete_social_account` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-social-account.md - `delete_social_post` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/delete-social-post.md - `ghl_delete_association` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/ghl-delete-association.md - `ghl_delete_custom_field` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp/ghl-delete-custom-field.md - …and 224 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/thinkbedo-gohighlevel-mcp.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
