Keep custom DNS rules aligned with Airtable view metadata

A view's name or type change can trigger a review and update of identified Control D rules. Tell Notis which rules and details to adjust.

Trigger

View Metadata Changed

Triggers when an Airtable view changes its name or type.

Action

Modify Custom Rules for Profile

Tool to modify existing custom rule(s) for a profile. Use when you need to update rule details such as name, description, severity, or enabled status. Ensure to include the rule IDs to modify.

Why this helps

Airtable changes can make the intent behind DNS rules harder to track if the rules are not updated alongside them.

  • Prompt rule maintenance when a view changes.
  • Target known rules and specify the change, such as name, description, severity, or enabled status.
  • Review the resulting update in a run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtable and Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for updating specified Control D custom rules.
  • 3Tell Notis the target profile, rule IDs, and supported changes to apply when a view name or type changes.
  • 4Pick Airtable View Metadata Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real view metadata change and review the updated rules.

Questions about this workflow

Can this update a rule based on hostname alone?

The selected action modifies existing rules and requires their IDs. Include the rule IDs or a reliable way to obtain them in your instruction.

Can this modify folder rules?

The action listed here modifies custom rules for a profile. If the target rule is in a folder, confirm the action and required identifiers support that case before relying on it.
