Update access

MCPupdate_accessWRITE$0.02 / call

Make a workspace private and configure its unlock method (password and/or bring-your-own SSO/OIDC identity provider — Google Workspace, Entra ID, Okta). REQUIRES PRO plan (or Business). Anonymous readers of a private workspace must unlock it with the password or sign in via SSO before seeing any content; the owner always has access. BEFORE CHANGING THIS, call docsbook_expert with what you are trying to achieve: it names the reading that should decide the value, so the setting is a conclusion rather than a guess. One call, changes nothing.

Arguments
workspace_idstringrequired

Numeric workspace id — OR the project as the user names it: 'owner/repo', the repo name alone, the site's display name, its docs URL or custom domain. Text is resolved server-side; an ambiguous name returns the candidates instead of guessing, so pass what the user said rather than calling list_workspaces first.

visibilitystringoptional

Whether the workspace requires unlocking to read One of: public, private.

passwordstringoptional

Shared unlock password (min 8 chars), or null to remove password unlock

ssostringoptional

Bring-your-own OIDC identity provider config, or null to remove SSO unlock

Try it over REST#

The same tool is callable as a plain HTTP request, no MCP client required. It runs on the same server, at the same price.

Your workspace is resolved from the API key, so workspace_id is decided server-side here and anything you send for it is ignored.

Authorization
