Create Managed Object Definition

createManagedObjectDefinition

Define new managed object types in PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud by appending to the managed configuration. Ensure correct structure by first retrieving an existing schema with getManagedObjectSchema.

Instructions

Create a new managed object type definition in PingOne AIC by appending to the managed config. IMPORTANT: Call getManagedObjectSchema with includeFullDefinition=true on an existing object first to understand the expected definition structure.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
objectNameYesName for the new managed object type (e.g., "alpha_device", "custom_application"). Must contain only a-z, A-Z, 0-9, and underscore characters.
objectDefinitionYesThe object definition containing at minimum a schema with properties. Call getManagedObjectSchema with includeFullDefinition=true on an existing object to see the expected structure.
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true. The description adds 'by appending to the managed config' which explains the mutation mechanism. No contradictions, but additional details like permissions or side effects are missing.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is two sentences, front-loading the purpose and following with a key usage hint. Every sentence is meaningful and concise.

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

Completeness4/5

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

Given the tool's complexity (creating a managed object definition with nested schema), the description adequately covers purpose and links to getManagedObjectSchema for structural details. It lacks output schema info but that's acceptable as output schema is absent.

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%, so the schema already explains both parameters. The description does not add extra meaning beyond confirming the role of objectDefinition, thus meeting the baseline.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description clearly states the verb 'Create' and the resource 'managed object type definition in PingOne AIC', distinguishing it from siblings like deleteManagedObjectDefinition or patchManagedObjectDefinition.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description includes an IMPORTANT note that advises calling getManagedObjectSchema first to understand the expected structure, providing explicit contextual guidance. However, it does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use this tool.

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