Prisma

Automates the provisioning of managed databases, monitors query performance via AI analysis, and manages global cache regions for your application infrastructure.

Standard

Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Prisma integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Prisma calls, fills the parameters, and checks the result.
    • Structured, agent friendly tool schemas so each call runs reliably instead of by guesswork.
    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Prisma data, across all 22 of its actions.
  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Prisma access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.
  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.
    • Full execution logs so you always know what ran in Prisma, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Prisma is unclear instead of plowing ahead.
  4. Enterprise grade security

    • Fine grained access so you control which agents and people can reach Prisma.
    • Least privilege by default, read scopes first and only the writes a workflow needs.
    • A full audit trail of every Prisma action to support review and sign off.

Supported tools

Every action Ceven's agents can run on Prisma, and when to use it.

Get Prisma Database
Retrieve specific prisma database by id. returns database details including status, project context, and regional deployment. use for database monitoring, validation, and administrative operations.
Get Prisma Project
Retrieve specific prisma project by id. returns project details including name, creation timestamp, and workspace information. use for project detail views, validation, and administrative operations.
List Prisma Workspaces

Frequently asked questions

Ceven uses OAuth2 to connect to your Prisma Data Platform account. When you initiate the connection, you are redirected to the Prisma console to grant specific permissions. Once approved, Prisma issues a secure token that Ceven stores encrypted. We use this token to make requests on your behalf to the Prisma API. You can revoke this access at any time through your Prisma account settings, which immediately cuts off the agent ability to manage your projects or databases. This ensures no raw API keys are ever shared in plain text within your workflows.
Yes, the agent can execute both read only queries and data modification commands if the provided connection has the necessary permissions. For read operations, it uses the Execute SQL Query tool, while modifications go through Execute SQL Command. We recommend using a least privilege approach by creating specific database users for the agent. This prevents the agent from accidentally dropping tables or modifying critical schema elements unless you explicitly build a workflow that requires those administrative permissions for a specific maintenance task.
Deleting a project is a permanent action. When the agent calls the Delete Prisma Project tool, it removes the project, all associated managed databases, and all environment settings. This action cannot be undone through the API or the console. To prevent accidental data loss, we suggest adding a human in the loop approval step to your Ceven workflow. This requires a team member to click a confirm button before the agent sends the final delete request to the Prisma API.
The Prisma API uses cursor based pagination for listing projects, workspaces, and databases. Ceven handles this automatically by tracking the pagination cursor. If you ask the agent to find a project in a large organization with hundreds of entries, it will make sequential API calls to walk through the entire list until the target project is found. You will see a progress indicator in the workflow log showing that the agent is iterating through pages of results from the Prisma Data Platform.
Database restoration in Prisma is an asynchronous operation. When Ceven triggers a restore, Prisma starts the process and returns a tracking ID. The agent does not immediately see the new database as active. Instead, it polls the database status endpoint until the state changes from creating to available. A known quirk of the Prisma platform is that default databases provided with certain project tiers cannot be deleted or restored over directly, so the agent always creates a new instance for restores to avoid conflicts.
Yes, the agent can list available Accelerate regions and help you determine where to deploy your global cache to minimize latency. By combining the List Prisma Accelerate Regions tool with your own application traffic data, you can build a workflow that suggests or implements cache deployments in specific geographic zones. This ensures your database reads are served from the edge, reducing the load on your primary Postgres instance and improving the end user experience for global customers.
No, Ceven never stores your database records. The agent acts as a bridge between your workflow and the Prisma API. When you run a query, the result is passed through the agent to the requested destination, such as a Slack message or a CSV file, but it is not persisted in Ceven long term storage. We only store the metadata necessary to manage the connection and the logs of the API calls made to Prisma for auditing and debugging purposes.
The agent uses the Inspect Database Schema tool to understand the current state of your tables and columns. While it can execute SQL commands to modify the schema, it does not natively manage Prisma schema files which are typically handled via the Prisma CLI in a CI CD pipeline. The agent is best used for observing the live database state and performing targeted migrations or data fixes rather than managing the entire version controlled schema evolution process.
