Turn an Ably event signal into a custom rule update
When an event calls for a rule adjustment, tell Notis the exact Control D rule and the change to make.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update Custom Rule by Rule ID
Tool to update an existing custom rule by its ID. Use when modifying details like name, description, severity, or enabled status for a specific rule.
Why this helps
Rule changes are easy to postpone when the event context and the DNS policy live in separate places.
- Start from an HTTP request carrying event context.
- Use a specified rule ID to keep the change focused.
- Put the requested rule details into a plain-language instruction.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Control D once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to create one.
- 3Describe the rule change and include the profile and rule identifiers in the instruction or request.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real example and verify the rule ID and requested change.
