Create a DNSFilter network from approved office documents
Turn verified office setup details into a DNSFilter network with less manual re-entry.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Networks
Creates a network to group devices or locations under DNS filtering policies.
Why this helps
Office network details can be ready in a document workflow but still need to be entered separately before DNS protection is configured.
- Carries verified setup details from document work into network creation.
- Reduces repeated entry during office onboarding.
- Keeps the network configuration tied to an explicit verification.
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 network only when Affinda reports verified details and the required network configuration is available.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real verified office setup record.
Questions about this workflow
Does the action create a filtering policy too?
No. It creates a network. Policy assignment or creation should be handled separately with the relevant configuration.
What if the document lacks a required network detail?
The workflow should report what is missing and wait for a complete configuration rather than guess.
