Notes

  • This endpoint only updates the approval policy, not other server configuration
  • Use the general update endpoint (PATCH /api/mcp-servers/{mcpServerId}) to update other fields
  • Changing to require_approval_per_tool allows fine-grained control via tool approvals
  • The approval policy affects how tool calls from this MCP server are processed
