AI assistants: permissions, security and limits

Updated 1 November 2026 4 min read

Which permissions an AI assistant gets depending on your role, how you choose the workspace and disconnect, and which limits apply to MCP.

An AI assistant always works in LinkHarbor on your behalf and never with more permissions than you have yourself. Here you can find out how the permissions are made up, how to disconnect a connection again and which limits apply.

One workspace per connection

On the consent page, you choose exactly one workspace under “Workspace”. The connection then applies only to you and that workspace. If you want to work with the assistant in a second workspace, connect it once more and choose the other workspace there. Suspended workspaces are not offered.

What your role allows

The permissions on the consent page depend on your role in the chosen workspace. Everything your role allows is preselected; you cannot tick the rest.

RolePermissions allowedUsable tools
ViewerRead only, without forms and short linksRead pages, block types, templates, versions, preview and statistics
EditorEverything except “Write · Workspaces”, short links and workspace templatesAll 25 tools
AdminAllAll 25 tools
OwnerAllAll 25 tools

If your role changes later, that applies to the connection too: if you are downgraded, the assistant loses the permissions your new role no longer has on its next call. If you are removed from the workspace, access ends completely. More on roles in Roles and permissions.

Disconnect a connection

You find all connections in the dashboard under “Callback & API” in the “Connected apps” card. Every member sees this card, whatever their role and plan – it only shows your own connections.

Connected apps card with one connected app: the name My AI assistant, workspace, permission tags, last used and the Disconnect button
Under “Connected apps” you see and disconnect your connections
Name
The app's name, for example Claude or ChatGPT.
“Workspace: …”
The workspace the connection applies to.
Permission tags
The permissions granted, such as “Read · Pages”.
“Last used …”
When the app last accessed your account, or “Not used yet”.
“Disconnect”
Ends the connection after the question “Disconnect …? The app loses access immediately.”

To change a connection's permissions, disconnect it and connect the assistant again.

When connections end automatically

  • When you change or reset your password
  • When you delete your account or it is suspended
  • When you are removed from the workspace
  • When a connection has not been used for 90 days

Security

  • The assistant never gets your password or an API key, but a token of its own that only works with the MCP server
  • Every action goes through the same checks as in the dashboard: role, permission, plan and input validation
  • All calls that change something are logged with the person, workspace and tool
  • Changes land in the draft and can be undone through versions
  • Texts from pages and form submissions count as data for the assistant, not as commands

Limits

One tool can trigger several API calls internally – get_page four, for example, and the statistics tools two each. With normal use in chat, you will practically never reach these limits. Details on all limits are in Rate limits.
