Allow a required business application in DNSFilter

Help resolve a work-blocking application request by carrying its reviewed details into the right DNSFilter policy.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add Allowed Application

Allows an application through a policy, regardless of other blocking rules.

Why this helps

A team can lose time waiting for an application exception to make it from a request into the filtering policy.

  • Carry an application request to a named policy.
  • Reduce back-and-forth for reviewed access exceptions.
  • Keep policy changes connected to a clear request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ai ml api and Dnsfilter once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add the supplied application to the specified policy allow list.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real application and intended policy.

Questions about this workflow

Does this allow every application?

No. The request should identify a single application and the intended policy.

When should I use this workflow?

Use it for a reviewed request to permit a specific application through a DNSFilter policy.
