get_automation_rule

Get a single automation rule by ID. Returns the full rule including all conditions (geography, weight, delivery type, etc.) and assigned carrier accounts.

The most detailed read in the automation-rules family. Use when list_automation_rules doesn't surface enough detail to explain a decision.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
tenantId	string	Yes	The tenant.
ruleset_id	string	Yes	The ruleset the rule belongs to.
rule_id	string	Yes	The rule id.

Returns

A single rule object — sequence, name, full condition tree (geography, weight, delivery type, custom-attribute matches, etc.), target carrier account(s), status.

Example agent prompts

"Show me the full conditions for rule R-042 in ruleset RS-001."

get_automation_rule(
  tenantId="…",
  ruleset_id="RS-001",
  rule_id="R-042"
)

The agent narrates the rule structure: "R-042 fires for forward shipments to KSA where weight > 5kg, routing to DHL UAE 2."

Related tools

• list_automation_rules — the index. Usually enough; drop to this tool only for full conditions.
• get_custom_attributes — if a rule references custom attributes, the agent should resolve what those keys mean.

Notes

• Editing rules is not an MCP capability. Direct users to the Dashboard for changes.
