The MCP Guard Administration Page
The MCP Guard Administration page is the starting point for an administrator of MCP Guard in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It shows the number of rules, the calls of the AI assistants, and how long the usage is kept. Every number opens the page behind it, and the actions open the pages of MCP Guard and of Business Central that belong to it. The page stores nothing: every number is read when the page opens.
Open the page
Choose the search icon (Tell Me), enter MCP Guard Administration, and then choose the related link. You need the permission set MCP GUARD - ADMIN.
