Permanently deletes an option set from Dataverse. WARNING: This action cannot be undone and will fail if the option set is being used by any columns. Ensure no columns reference this option set before deletion.
AI agents call delete_dataverse_optionset to permanently remove resources in Dataverse MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The tool irreversibly deletes a schema object (option set) from Dataverse. While the deletion can fail if the option set is in use, successful execution permanently removes data structures that cannot be recovered. This is a classic destructive operation with potential for significant unintended consequences if an AI agent targets the wrong option set or executes it in the wrong environment.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete'; description explicitly states 'Permanently deletes' and 'This action cannot be undone'. These are hallmarks of destructive operations.

Block by default and require explicit approval.
Register the Dataverse MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for delete_dataverse_optionset: 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 Dataverse MCP Server. Nothing to install.
