Keep external filter settings on policy
Choose a profile and the external filters to review. Notis checks their current states on schedule and applies the changes your policy calls for.
Trigger

Questions about this workflow
How does this differ from a native filter update?
This workflow is for third-party filters associated with a profile. Native profile filters use a different Control D action.
Can the workflow choose external filters without guidance?
Name the filters or define how to identify them, and provide the policy for changing their states.
