Asset and feature privileges for MCP servers

MCP servers use some AI Agent Engineering asset and feature privileges that allow users to access specific functionality. You can view the privileges associated with a user role when you view the details for a role from the User Roles page in Administrator.
Note:
These privileges apply to AI Agent Engineering users. If you don't use AI Agent Engineering, you don't need to associate these privileges with any user role.

The following table describes the AI Agent Engineering asset privileges related to MCP servers:
