Notis

Make a coordinated change to several rules

Send one request naming the profile, rule IDs, and desired changes. Abstract processes the instructions, and Notis updates the specified rules together.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Modify Custom Rules for Profile

Why this helps

Updating several related rules one by one makes policy maintenance slow and easy to leave half-finished.

  • Handle related changes in one automation run.
  • Keep updates limited to the rule IDs in the request.
  • Reduce repetitive profile maintenance.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and enter a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to process the request and modify only the specified rules in the named profile.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real request listing the profile ID, rule IDs, and intended changes.

Questions about this workflow

Can this update rules in multiple profiles?

The action is for custom rules for a profile. Supply the profile ID and the rule IDs to modify in that profile.

What if a requested change is unclear?

Make the prompt require Notis to leave an ambiguous change unapplied and report what needs clarification.
