Works with AI assistants

Use Tenable: its Tenable Platform & Settings Access Control (Permissions) API lets you overwrite an existing permission in a single step (PUT /api/v3/access-control/permissions/{permission_uuid}). Tenable also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.

  • Do I have to send every field when I edit a permission?
  • Can I change which assets an existing permission covers?
Say it to your AI assistant
  • Update permission {permission_uuid} to name {name}, actions {actions}, objects {objects}, subjects {subjects}.
  • Replace the objects on permission {permission_uuid} with {objects}, keeping name {name}, actions {actions} and subjects {subjects}.
