Notis

Recheck custom rule status against current policy

Name the profile and rules to revisit, then state what should remain enabled. Scheduled runs can identify mismatches and apply the requested status change.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Modify Custom Rules for Profile

Why this helps

Temporary or outdated rules can remain active because no one remembers to revisit their status.

  • Revisit specified rules on a recurring cadence.
  • Tie status changes to an explicit policy condition.
  • Reduce the manual effort of periodic rule cleanup.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and enter a name and prompt.
  • 3Specify the profile, rules, and policy condition that determines their enabled status.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real profile and a few rules before relying on the schedule.

Questions about this workflow

Can this remove rules that should no longer exist?

This workflow updates custom rule details and status. Deleting a rule uses a separate action.

Can it determine that a rule is temporary?

Only if the request, rule context, or your prompt supplies that information and the review criteria.
