Set up DNSFilter reports with verified contact details

Use a recurring Notis schedule to validate the report contact, then create the DNSFilter report schedule for the specified organization.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Scheduled Report

Schedules automatic delivery of recurring network activity and security reports.

Why this helps

Security reporting can get missed when report setup depends on remembering to configure it and confirm delivery details manually.

  • Validate a supplied report contact before setting up recurring reporting.
  • Create a report schedule for the specified DNSFilter organization.
  • Reduce the chance of forgetting to configure recurring summaries.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Addressfinder and DNSFilter once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to validate the supplied report contact with Addressfinder, then create a DNSFilter scheduled report for the specified organization and frequency when the contact is confirmed.
  • 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real organization and report schedule.
