Schedule DNS security reports from contract review
Make a reporting commitment operational by creating the DNSFilter schedule it calls for.
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
A contract can specify a reporting cadence that never makes it into the security reporting tool.
- Carries a reporting requirement from contract review into a report schedule.
- Avoids re-entering the requested frequency and organization.
- Makes missing schedule details visible before setup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and DNSFilter once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a DNSFilter scheduled report only when the Affinda review explicitly requests one and provides the organization and frequency.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one reviewed contract record that includes the required details.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis infer the report frequency from vague contract wording?
The frequency must be explicit in the available data or supplied by you. If it is unclear, the automation should report the gap.
Does this generate a report immediately?
This action creates a scheduled report. A separate preview action can initiate background generation of a preview.
