Allow a trusted domain in DNSFilter

Resolve trusted site access requests by adding the specified domain to the intended DNSFilter policy.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add Whitelist Domain

Allows a domain under a policy, bypassing its filtering rules.

Why this helps

A trusted site may stay blocked while its allow request waits for someone to locate and edit the correct policy.

  • Apply a domain exception to one policy.
  • Reduce repetitive policy editing after a trusted-site request.
  • Use explicit request details to avoid ambiguous changes.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and DNSFilter in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation from Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to add the requested trusted domain to the specified DNSFilter policy allow list, and skip incomplete requests.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one approved domain and policy identifier.

Questions about this workflow

Does this allow the domain across all policies?

No. This action adds one domain to one policy. Use the bulk action for multiple domains or policies.

Where does approval come from?

The webhook request must supply the approval or trusted status. No AnyDB trigger fields are defined here.

What starts this workflow?

A Notis webhook request starts it because no AnyDB native trigger events are listed.
