bing get write schema

bing_get_write_schema
Read-onlyIdempotent

Read pinned native fields of a Microsoft Advertising entity to inspect its write schema before creating or updating records.

Instructions

Read the pinned native fields of a Microsoft Advertising entity. Read each polymorphic object's documentation for its REST Type value. Account eligibility is separate.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

      "entity": "<entity>"
    },
    "name": "bing_get_write_schema"
  }
}

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
entityYesEntity whose native fields to read.

Output Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
resultYesOriginal tool result: parsed JSON when the text is JSON, otherwise the text or multiple MCP content blocks. Provider fields depend on the selected query.

TDQS

C2.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds that only native fields are read and that account eligibility is separate, but it does not clarify what a "write schema" contains or how polymorphic objects are handled beyond pointing to external documentation.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is short and front-loaded, with the core action stated first. The middle sentence about polymorphic object documentation is awkward and less immediately useful, but the overall structure remains efficient.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so the description need not explain return values, and the single parameter is fully documented in the schema. However, for a schema-retrieval tool whose name implies write-schema semantics, the description leaves the central purpose and selection criteria under-specified.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, and the single entity parameter has an enum and its own description. The description adds no parameter-level meaning beyond saying the entity is a Microsoft Advertising entity, so the schema carries the parameter semantics.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description uses a specific verb ("Read") and resource ("pinned native fields of a Microsoft Advertising entity"), but "pinned native fields" is vague and never explains the "write schema" implied by the tool name. It does not clearly distinguish this tool from siblings such as bing_get_reporting_schema or bing_get_setup_guide.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description gives no explicit when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no alternatives. "Account eligibility is separate" is a scope exclusion, but it does not tell an agent when to select this tool versus other schema or entity tools.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
